      Henry Legaspi lots of things with the technology, one outside difference you can see is that thick white line going across the bottom of the train.

      The R44 was made by the St. Louis Car Company, while the R46 was made by Pullman.

      The R46s were built by Chicago Pullman about 3 years after the first R44s, built by Saint Lous Car Co. The trucks were different and some interior details were different though they were mostly the same. When they were new, they had blue stripes on them, both the 44s and 46s and did not have digital side signs. 46s debuted the bullet look, the 44s didn't have the bullet. The 46s trucks had to be replaced because of cracks. Then 44s and 46s went with similar trucks.

      Huge difference. Only thing the same is the body and seat configuration

      Those are not main line cars.....the main line cars are the ones that ran in the subway.

      They already retired the R42s yesterday on the A train, but I'm not sure about the R44s and R46s yet.

    They could've rebuilt them,like what the LIRR could've do the same with their budd M3s

    • @danielh.9310
      @danielh.9310 4 роки тому +1

      Sorry these had rusting on their frame and it would've been stupidly expensive because at that point you're rebuilding the entire subway car anyways...

      Flyboy Silver It’s illegal to film in the PATH system. So you basically have to do it secretly with your phone. Don’t try recording at WTC or Newark either, cops will be all over your ass there.

      Shelly Purty II ah, are you saying you want the R44’s back in service? They were retired due to them rotting from the inside out. However you can still catch the last remaining R44’s on the Staten Island Railway.

      On that note, it's amazing that none of the St. Louis Car Company trains could not outlast the older Budd trains even though they made the more attractive trains.

      @@subwayfantx1608 yep well only 1 survived but went extinct just a few days this year. R32s did last the longest who knows what type of material the Budd company used on their subway cars

      subwayfantx1608 All the St. Louis car company trains had the same rotting and rusting issue i believe, especially with the roof
