A train of R 10s rolls into one of the stations in Rockaway. These cars were 40 years old by then, and would be retired soon. As primitive as they were, I miss them. |

Ive seen trackless trolleys.... |
Description: |
But this is ridiculous!! Sumitomo Rail in Elmira Heights was rebuilding cars for the NYCTA, and trucking them to and from the city. This IRT car was on a flat bed trailer near Apalachin. Sumirail had a contract for several other models as well, and for the next few years, it was not uncommon to see subway cars out on the highway. |

R 11 |
Description: |
One of the odder cars the NYCTA had was a set of ten R 11s. These were of aluminum construction, built in 1948 to test how the aluminum bodies and parts would hold up. They didnt do as well as the Transit Authority hoped, and they became orphans. By the time I was riding the trains regularly in the mid 1970s, there were four of them left, running on the Franklin Av Shuttle, from Prospect Park on the Brighton Line, to Fulton St, where it connected to the IND A train on the Fulton St subway. Transfer was by taking a paper ticket from a dispenser, then going to the other line, where you dropped the ticket in a fare box. This lasted til the Franklin Av train was replaced by buses, I think in the late 70s. This car is seen at the Transit Museum in the old IND Court St station in Brooklyn. |

Not quite as old |
Description: |
A train of mid 50s built R 27s aprroaches one of the Rockaway Line stations. This was one of two trains I caught that day. Its not quite as old as the other one, which had R 10s. The line here was once part of the LIRR, reached via two routes. The main route was via a junction with the LIRR Main Line at Rego Park, which ran south through Woodhaven and Howard Beach. It crossed Jamaica Bay on a wood pile trestle, which was a constant maintenance headache. The last straw was a fire in 1950. The LIRR sold it to NYCTA, which rebuilt it as a concrete causeway. The LIRR Rockaway Line was cut back to Woodhaven, and finally abandoned in 1962. The other route is still in service via Valley Stream, though the through route was cut so the LIRR Far Rockaway station is about four blocks from the IND station. |
