Doesn't Look Like 56 is going to happen...

Here is a set of R-17s making a station stop at 34th Street. The objects in the foreground are the brake handle and the reversing key from the same actual equipment as shown. Each motorman (now called Train Operators) was issued his own numbered brake handle, Reversing key and cutting key. These were the tools needed to move a subway train.

 

Show me something else. Anything else, just so long as it has a number. ☺

LION has no firetruck. Here is a picture of a locomotive that I tried to paint in LIRR colors. The washed out backdrop behind it give the impression that it is running on the causeway to the Rockaways.

 

Show me a mainline by the sea.

No. 2

Let's do the alphabet again, but without images used the last time.

Show me something with the letter A.

Opps, Lion beat me to it.  If nothing by the sea THEN go with the letter A.
