Galactekk Rail Fanning - Excursion #5: Anticipating Antiques

[@MetroMenTransitProductions]

Bro pls go to Danbury next time!!!!!!!!!! That branch looks godly during the Winter. It makes that line look SOOOOO scenic.

[@GalactekkRF]

@@MetroMenTransitProductions It’s super far for us… Although I’d like to visit the museum there. As much as we’d love to go, it may be hard to work out with our guardians for the amount of time it’s take to get there I look forward to the day we’ll ride it from how you talk about it!

[@GalactekkRF]

New York has some interesting art and… creatures LOL

[@NY-TransitLuvr9808]

It does lmao

[@MetroMenTransitProductions]

Also, I understand how far Danbury is from where you live and I get it, but how about you guys go to Poughkeepsie and go on the Hudson River Walkway? That one is not so far at all, and has multiple trains.

[@GalactekkRF]

@@MetroMenTransitProductions I’ll try looking into it! Thanks for the suggestions!

[@MetroMenTransitProductions]

I honestly hate the subway. The only subway train I like are the antique ones, like the R9 and such. R46s arent bad

[@GalactekkRF]

@@MetroMenTransitProductions interesting! I adore the subway even though it’s stinky and has way too many crazy people. I love the R46s, 68s, 62s and 42s. The R42s were designed by the same people that did the M1 As for the R1/9 those go beyond my threshold for retro things to like LOL

[@MetroMenTransitProductions]

@@GalactekkRF Yeah I used to love it, but I would ride it every day Monday-Friday to my school for 7 years, and go on trips on weekends. I am proud to say I have been on every line on the subway. My Dad actually works for them. After seeing what I have seen, I got tired of it and switched to LIRR, and Metro-North because I've realized how much better it is in the quality of people. And I like ACTUALLY interacting with crews! Like conductors, and such. The SMEEs on the subway are what are the best. It's just the people who ride them that make me not want to, you know. R42s are pretty cool, I liked riding those on the J line! R68s, they're cool but not by favorite. I prefer regular R68s, not the R68gAy's. I love my R46s, they were my favorite! I always loved riding those on the R, F not really. R62s are pretty cool, too! R32s you forgot, you didn't like those?? Oh, I loved those things.... The memories of riding them on the C and J.

[@GalactekkRF]

@@MetroMenTransitProductions I adore the R32s! Rode them on the J. I don’t have memories aboard the R42- don’t think I rode one ever, but I took the orange and blue lines a lot. But from what I have encountered, engineers and other workers on the subway seek much happier and friendlier. MOST of the crew I’ve encountered didn’t really seem to care about the railroad. Didn’t know your dad worked for the subway- cool!

[@MetroMenTransitProductions]

@@GalactekkRF The ones on Metro-North are always nice! Much more friendlier than subway crews. LIRR they just care about the benefits and don’t care.

[@MetroMenTransitProductions]

For equipment on the LIRR, such as the 3s 7s and 9s, etc: Which specific unit (or units) of the LIRR (Metro-North, if you have that is.) are your fav? Or one of the cars in the units: Here are mine: M3: 9804, 9879 M7: 7102, 7404 M9: 9092, 9200 C3: 4083, 5010 DE30AC: 408 DM30AC: 501 For Metro-North, here are mine: M3A: 8000, 8111 M7A: Tbh I don't like M7A's at all. To me they're garbage. M8: 9441 Shoreliner (Metro-North NY State Owned, Blue Stripe) Cabcar: 6111 Shoreliner (Metro-North NY State Owned, Blue Stripe) Trailer: 6177 Shoreliner Cabcar (Metro-North pooled Connecticut (CTDOT) Owned, Red Stripe): 6209 Shoreliner Trailer (Metro-North pooled Connecticut (CDOT) Owned, Red Stripe): 6255 P32AC-DM: 219 BL20GH: 111

[@GalactekkRF]

Give me some time and we will try fill this out! Although we probably won’t be able to fill out most of these… LOL

[@MetroMenTransitProductions]

@@GalactekkRF Ok, can you now LOL

[@GalactekkRF]

@@MetroMenTransitProductions M3: 9885, 9911 M7: All the same to me... M9: All the same to me... C3: Need to ride more DE30AC: All the same to me DM30AC: All the same to me MNRR Stuff M3A: Need to ride M7A: Probably identical to a normal M7? Never been aboard one M8: Need to ride Shoreliner: If it has its original interior I'll like it P32AC-DM: No idea what that is BL20GH: No idea what that is We don't really take either railroads if we need to go further than what's within our reach. We typically drive

[@MetroMenTransitProductions]

@ Cool! Why do you like 9911? Just curious haven’t been in it. And 9938 for me is also one of my favorites, too. 9938 has to be the cleanest M3.
