So the R62As did have full cabs back in the day. Interesting.

[@blakemcnamara9105]

Do you have any films of this line prior to 1996?

[@chaohwac]

I purchased the camcorder in 1996. So I don’t have any of them before 1996.

[@blakemcnamara9105]

@@chaohwac Oh okay. I was just wondering because I noticed that you had some pictures of the line in the earlier '90s and I could notice in the background that there were still some interlocking signals that were the old style large round ones which must have been original to the line. I deduced that the Pelham Line must have been the last line to have them.

[@chaohwac]

I started using a point-and-shoot camera in 1995. I did not take videos until August 1996.

@@chaohwac Okay. Well thank you for the information.
