This is another view of a G train at 4th Ave. as
it deadheads along the first of the two middle tracks. Bits of the neighborhood poke
above the top of the station.
There is much information available about the history and operation of the
New York City Subway both in print and on the Internet. It doesn't
take someone very long to track a particular car number to its
contract identifier (which is "R" something), its maker and the period of
manufacture. In this case the train features venerable R46 Pullman cars, built in
the mid-1970s. |
