    Amazing how old these classics are and still look as attractive as ever! These are the last of the Redbird body-styled trains in service. I just hope they'll continue running for another year or two. I'm hoping to visit NY in the future and taking a ride on a train of R-32's is on my priority list!

    This is an excellent railfan video and also an important historical document that records the Rockaways attempt to rebuild after suffering devastating damage in Hurricane Sandy (2012). R-32 Brightliners forever!

    Great Job Fan Railer,
    As an Ex-T.A. worker living out of state, seeing Liberty Junction Tower, the famous "10 Ball" s/o Rockaway blvd, the F-5 test track, Hammels Wye ...and the newly refurbished flats - complete with new steel barrier walls (compliments of Super Storm Sandy) Really Made My Day !!!

Снова с двух сторон река 19:22, 20:22 - и рельсы выше - ниже. Поперёк внизу мостовая и рельсы соединяются 23:10. Справа вдоль мостовая 25:05. Справа два одинаковых дома 29:49. Впереди два одинаковых дома 35:42. Рельсы разъезжаются, сужаются на один путь и опять с двух сторон река и интересно 42:42. Навстречу поезд S --- 44:32. Снова с двух сторон река 46:02. Рельсы разъезжаются и в тупик, и поезд S стоит в этом тупике 49:52. Снова с двух сторон река 53:09. Где станция - наверху интересно 56:07. Справа типа эстакады мостовой 57:42. Только платформа северного направления, и на моих бумагах так написано 59:07. Справа вдоль мостовая, и рельсы соединяются 1:01:14. Справа вдоль мостовая и навстречу автобус 1:05:52. Только последняя станция Jay Street - MetroTech - под землёй, а до этого на улице.

    They plan on keeping the R32s around with one more rebuild for when the R211s get here but l cant see it, the R32s are definitely showing their age and a lot of them are hot cars...

  • @johnkaufmann8875
    @johnkaufmann8875 Před 7 lety +1

    Is the reason the R32's were running on the weekend because of the transfer of 3 sets of R46 to Jamaica Yard? Friend of mine saw one the R32 sets to Lefferts Blvd during the middle of the afternoon on a weekday! Nice to see the 32's on the flats again!

    @thefultonstlne Před 7 lety +4

    Don't the R-32s operate in married pairs? The conductor is supposed to be in the middle of the train. With a train of 8 R-32s, that makes sense. But this train had 10 R-32s. How can the conductor be in the middle of the train, assuming that a conductor can only be at the end of a married pair

    • @FanRailer
      @FanRailer  Před 7 lety +3

      There are cabs on both ends of each car. There are conductor controls in each cab, but only the outward facing cabs of the pair have motorman controls.

      Are you comparing NYC Subway with European railways? That is like comparing apples and oranges. If you want to compare the NYC with European underground transit trains that would be a more fair comparison. Bear in mind that all the European metros or u bahns with the exception of London and Budapest are not as old as NYC's Subway.
