  • The R62As on the 7 line have been removed from service and will soon be moved over to other lines. I took the opportunity right before this occurred to get footage from the passenger-accessible front window, which provides some amazing views. Enjoy!

    I believe either 3/29/18 or 3/30/18 was the last time the R62A's ever ran on Flushing. The end of the SMEE era on the 7 line too.. I'll remember these trains on the 7.

    R33WF/R36WF were the workhorse of the 7 Train 1964-2003. 62A was displaced by the 142A on the 6, now thry are back home on the 6 with the 7 now all R188. This is truly the end of the RFW on the A Division/IRT as those Remaining cars will be vonverted to full cab either to the 1 or 6 train. Sad.
