Hello from the UK. That was a really interesting video and what looks like very long street running. I have seen railfan videos of La Grange in Kentucky and some other location, but I didn't know that there was anything like this in New York. From the looks of it, it appears to be a place where you wouldn't want to go for a walk on your own at night!

The MTA seems to be in an awful hurry to dispose of these gleaming, clean cars. There isn't a dent or even a scratched window. The public might think they were new cars just arriving. The world is in crisis and could be on the verge of war. The price of oil and gasoline is skyrocketing. Ridership on public transit will probably face huge increases. It wouldn't have hurt the MTA to stockpile and store this operable 'ready to run' subway equipment for the time being. I'm sure there is space in rail yards all over the city as well as on the LIRR and METRO-North. We're talking about maybe only 100 cars. Maybe ten trains. And then there is always the unforeseen possibility of something going wrong with the new subway cars. The R-32's would be perfect for an emergency back-up fleet. This reminds me of the fiasco in Philadelphia on SEPTA some years ago. Like the MTA, SEPTA couldn't wait to sell perfectly good rail cars to a scrapper in Newark. They got cents on the dollar for them. Many had been recently overhauled, even with new upholstery on the seats. Trains of those old Regional Rail cars, even with pantographs still on them, were hauled to the scrap yard where all were shredded. Then, lo and behold, cracks developed in the trucks of the new cars and all had to be removed from service pending a plan to make repairs and for those repairs to then take place. A crisis ensued and SEPTA had to pay out huge sums of money to lease cars and electric locomotives from N. J. Transit and MARC. It wouldn't have cost SEPTA a cent to have stockpiled and stored the old cars. It wouldn't cost the MTA a cent to stockpile and store several trains of R-32 cars. Another missed opportunity is not selling the R-32 cars to other transit systems, museums or private buyers. They'd make perfect diners, restaurants or coffee shops. Is the MTA so rich that they can afford to throw money away? Although it appears the destination signs have been removed for possible re-sale. You can be sure that scrap prices for the cars won't be much. Selling the signs to collectors might bring more money than the scrapper will pay for the cars.

Are these MTA Subway R-32 cars new or rebuilt cars being delivered from a factory?
@TheRailLeaguer2 жыл бұрын
There are already enough cars to the point where the R32 cars no longer need to be in revenue service. 318 R179 train cars are more than enough to replace 272 R32 and R42 train cars. There’s also zero capacity for additional train cars. Also, these subway cars are specifically designed for the NYC Subway. In fact, all transit systems have their fleet specifically designed for only their use, so that means the subway cars from one system to another. In addition, the retirement run on January 9th is official. That means no more revenue service use for these cars. It makes no sense to officially send off the cars (with so much fanfare mind you) only to have them come back in revenue service again. However if your concerned, several cars are still on the system but are now work trains. There are also a few for museum purposes as well.

@@elliottcohen1081 These trains are already crossed retirement age and scrapping is the only option. Also, that January 9th retirement run was the very last one, as in, no more revenue service runs for these cars after that. However if it makes you feel any better, a few will be preserved for work train service and the museum.
