HO R32 "Brightliner" Subway 2-Car Set (DC/Silent): MTA: A Wash Hts/8th Ave
When the first Budd R32 “Brightliner” cars were delivered to the New York City Transit Authority (NYCTA) in 1964, they were the largest subway car order yet for NYC’s massive subway system. They also ushered in a new era, with gleaming stainless steel exteriors that were a first for the agency, and led to the “Brightliner” name.
R32 cars were built to the specifications of NYCTA’s “B Division” – all lettered services - which has wider, longer, and heavier rolling stock. The 600 R32 cars each feature 4 doors on each side, with inward facing bench seating between each door. Each car is in a married pair, with signage on the outer ends of the car pair. On the sides of each car, a rollsign display shows the route and terminals on both the inside and the outside.
