    I like how the NYTM paired up the BMT standards and the IND arnine cars and the fact that they added US flags on the Arnines reminds me of the Dec-Jan Retirement Runs of the R32.
  • Now if I ran the zoo (Never let a lion run the zoo) I would plan a holiday mystery tour. I'd just use six cars, but I would not publish the route. We go this way and then we go that way, we wander across lines never used, into pockets, into yards, stop occasionally to let pax on or off, but not telling them where the train is going or when they can get off.

    Old equipment puts a smile on my face every time. Not sure the new trains we have today will be making nostalgia runs 90 years from now.
  • Awesome show of restored museum cars. I've had the pleasure of viewing these classics at the Transit Museum. Thanks DJHAMMERS Trains😀💚

    My father ( who recently passed away) worked for the MTA for 35 years before retiring in 1999 so as a boy I rode the R-9s before they were retired in the late 70's I loved the ceiling fans
  • I was on the train, but unfortunately not for the whole trip to 175th street, but this was fun!
  • To think that in my lifetime I had been on all of those cars before they were retired.
  • @cantecacara
    The Bmt Standard were replaced by R1/9 series. I.N.D. meets B.M.T.

  • @stevem.1853
    I hear wheel flats in some of the shots but not in others (???)
  • @TheBeagle58
    DAM! how did they manage to get the whole trainsets wheels so badly spotted up, geez!
  • @8avexp
    What BMT route did the green-yellow marker light combination use?
  • @DANEBLUEGNOME
    Julie Gnome: Why did they always non stop the train??
