- Redbird R33 4 train ride (lead car 9254) from Woodlawn to Utica Avenue on December 27, 2000. Had a great chat with fellow nycsubway.org SubTalker J.S. Li between 86th Street and Brooklyn Bridge.
The old Yankee Stadium; the house that Babe Ruth built. Also, nice vintage footage. This was the time the redbirds dominated the IRT division; both mainline and worlds fair.
I was born there
Thank you for this video this bring back memories. I rode every redbird on the 2,4,5,6 and 7. These redbird are classic train.
Ohh yes the REAL 4 Train so much childhood memories back in 98-99 me and my mom took the Redbird 4 train from Fulton St to burnside Ave in the Bronx for my doctors appointment
Back then alot of people been reporting to the MTA that the ceiling at Fulton Street Broadway Nassau on the Western end on A/C is a mess and especially people were having a confusion to transfer from the A/C to the 4/5 2/3 J/M/Z around 2007 I think around summer 2008 Crazy right people can't stand this about the celling problem people ask what are those yellow stuff on the walls i think is just the lights up stairs probably.
ツ Hxted oppz2019 lol good times
Gabriel T. Redbirds is always the definition of a real number line train I don't care what anyone says
Yes '99-'04 for me !!!!
I remember when the upper sections of the el still had semaphore signals in the early 60’s. Probably the last ones left in the system. Also there were plenty of lo vee trains still running on the Woodlawn.
Thank you for producing this video. Hard to believe I was only 28 years old back then.
Brings back so many memories when i once lived by the 4 train since 1984, i remember riding it with my mom and grandmother to my eye appointments and other places, and I'll never forget how colorful every train station looked before they got renovated. Now the IRT lines are not the same after the retirement of the Redbird trains.
These dudes are speaking history in this video
This is when the (4) used to haul ass to Manhattan! Thx for the upload, you bought back my childhood days from growing up on 183rd St in the Bx.
Thankx for this classic nostalgic upload! This is the REAL 4 train I'll always remember from my childhood! I miss the Redbirds dearly
This was a pre-911 world...
Went off to college for the fall that year after graduating HS in the prior June. But I believe during the filming of this video, I was actually back in town having flown up for the holidays. I live closer to the 5 which had always been dominated by redbirds even more so than the 4, though in the previous year I did notice an increase in the number of R-62s.
Thanks for this.
Thank you for uploading this and other subway videos. Indeed they are vintage but to many of us are ‘Classics’ and ‘Memorable’.
God I was living in the Bronx New York in the 2000’s so this right here definitely brings back memories when I got on and off at Woodlawn riding nothing only but the Redbirds.
Wow I don't even know where to start rode these r33s all the time.i rode the same route from Woodlawn to Utica in 97 was able to speak with the motorman some of the way this was pre 9/11an even better time for mta and railfanners I really miss these redbirds wonderful memories thanks for posting.
Happy 20th anniversary to this video
The Redbirds will always be an iconic staple of the subway system.
I really miss those REDBIRD Subway Train on the number 2&4&5&7 line 😢
I used to live along the line in The Bronx between Woodlawn and Mosholu. I was a High School student back in 2000… the world before 9/11… best era ever..
Thanks For The Memories Man! My Favorite Car Class..Used To Be Late For School..Wait At Franklin Avenue Just To Go One Stop To Utica..All Just To Be On A R33..On The 4 Line Back In 01-02..Didnt Know They Retired Till I Seen That Art Picture Of A Redbird In The Ocean(It Usually Was In Almost Every R142 Car Back In Like 06 till About 2009) Then I Got The Hint..Thank You So Much!
That's wild. I use to do the exact same thing
I was only 8 years old then but thought alot of the station were overhauled in the mid 2000s interesting to know the renovations took place much earlier on.
Note the construction at 161 for the station improvements
Super nostalgic right now!!!!
I was 19. The same year for the first time I rode the subway trains
At 0:06 I love that noise of the GE motor though I never rode this whatsoever
I never rode on the Redbirds, but I remember seeing them from the ground and preferred the look of them compared to the R-42.
The first R62 revenue trip was made on the 4 from Woodlawn in 1983. Mayor Koch was there to introduce it and urge people to get aboard.
Loved those Redbirds 😊
As l been stating that these ancient history cars of the Redbird subway cars, When special paints was picked it’s been 99 to 100% graffiti free when older cars overhaul programs began, when the page became rust and mold spots happen the entire fleet need newer re-weldings, it was a sick time these cars came to an end of an era!

You should have gotten the motorman to put the ditch lights on so that we could see where we were going. Aarre Peltomaa
MY FAVORITE 4 TRAIN MY LIFE BUSINESS BY THE COUNT VON COUNT I LOVE RIDING 4 TRAIN BY THE COUNT VON COUNT
The 4 train was grimey til the R62s came along. Wasn’t a fan of the redbirds. Always wanted an R62 to show up riding the 4 living in Brownsville Brooklyn. That said, I miss the authenticity of the New York subway system with the conductor calling out the next stop and riding the front car looking out the window. For that I miss the Redbirds. That authenticity is slowly dying with the new trains. And I love the new trains.
20 other Redbird subway cars could have been saved for emergency uses, even 100 or over were saved for museum car collections, Work Cars and others like movie activities too!
45:57 abandoned Worth Street Station. Going along the curve.

Why is a train switching tracks?
Depends on the traffic ahead or the controlling tower advises the train to do so.

I have a question. Do you have any clips of the r32s operating on the G in 2009 or in the 90s

The train went to the layover track, then the end car became the lead car and headed to the lower level of the Utica Avenue station.

@Chao-Hwa Chen Do You Have All The Videos of The R-62A 3 Trains?
Nope. I didn’t take videos from R62A trains at all because motormen can see through the small window on the passengers in front of the railfan window. I didn’t want to cause trouble.
@Chao-Hwa Chen Do You Have All The Videos of The R-62 4 Trains?
Nope.
@Chao-Hwa Chen Why Not?
I don’t have it.
