VERY RARE FIND!!!! nice Technica! 6:00 is RT-14 (ex. RT-46), A 1964 Hawker Siddeley H1!!! Renumbered from work car RT-46 (previously mated with RT-45) and mated with ex H4 5609 to create set RT-14/15 (6/2012).
Originally converted from H1 5336 to RT-46 for asbestos abatement (7/2000).

RT-14 is an H4, the H1 car got retired in 2016

The last H1 just retired.

[@briansokoloski776]

Wondering what is causing the big sparks at those areas

[@TechnicaProductions]

It happens when the electrical contact shoe leaves the third rail while the train is under acceleration

[@briansokoloski776]

TechnicaProductions so if arcing like that would this build up after time and make slightly less contact and then need to be cleaned up by grinding or

[@michaelsegal3558]

I remember with some of the older trains that when they sparked hearing a loud sound that sounded like a big electrical shock sound

[@Hamidu85]

THE H4 IT STILL SOUNDS FRESH

I always wanted to see work cars in action. how do i see them? What time?

[@TechnicaProductions]

[@Gentrol]

TechnicaProductions ok thanks! Geez, i had no idea the ttc worked this late!

[@Gentrol]

TechnicaProductions but doesnt the subway close at 1:30?

[@TechnicaProductions]

Some stations close around 2am

[@Gentrol]

TechnicaProductions Ok! Thanks!

[@michaelsegal3558]

I wonder if “RT” in the fleet numbers stand for Retired Train

[@Queensway8033]

No,rapid transit

[@NotJustPlanes]

Is there any way to know when work trains are coming in or do you need to just wait at the station around a certain time?

[@TechnicaProductions]

Between 1am and 2am is when work cars start heading out of Davisville on weeknights

[@josephyu2485]

I saw RT-63/64 Near Rosedale at About 1:30 A.M., Is that Usual?
