- In this video, I operate a retired R9 NYC Subway Car, The R9 was a New York City Subway car model, which was built by the American Car and Foundry Company and the Pressed Steel Car Company in 1940 for the Independent Subway System (IND) and its successors, which included the New York City Board of Transportation and the New York City Transit Authority. Identical to the preceding R7/As, the R9s had distinctive curved ends on the rollsign boxes and contained distinct 2CY air compressors that weren't featured on the previous Arnine fleets.[1] A total of 153 cars were built, numbered 1650-1802, and arranged as single units. They were the last "Arnine" type cars that were ordered before the merger of the IND with the IRT and BMT in 1940.
How did I do this?
a Museum in East Haven, Connecticut called "The Shore Line Trolley Museum" gives you opportunities to try operating retired Subway and Trolley cars, You may either go on Members day which is a day for Museum Members to operate the trains for free which is what I did in this video, or go to their Guest Motorman Day's which cost money. Not too sure about the age limit but I have seen some young people and myself operate the cars there (I am 14).
