When major work is being done on a subway car, they detach it from its wheels (trucks) and use a giant crane to lift the car body off the ground to set it on those stilts.
Good question. That section inbetween the two cars is like a curtain that can be unlatched and drawn back. Another good analogy is the sides of an air conditioner in a window. They extend to fill out the rest of the opening, but can recede when the unit is being moved.
@@R-160-F-Train Yeah, you can tell by the storm door and the car number (8180). Sometimes trains from East NY yard go to Coney Island yard if they need heavier maintenance.
I wonder how they will do this for the r211t
