- R32_(New_York_City_Subway_car) abstract "The R32 is a New York City Subway car model built in 1964-65 by the Budd Company in Philadelphia for the IND/BMT B Division. These cars were the first mass-produced stainless steel cars built for the New York City Subway. The two previous Budd orders, the BMT Zephyr and the R11 contract, were limited production orders. Their horizontally ribbed, shiny, and unpainted stainless exteriors earned the cars the nickname Brightliners.A Ceremonial Introduction trip for the new R32 "Brightliners" cars was held on September 9, 1964, operating from the New York Central Railroad's Mott Haven Yards in the Bronx to Grand Central Terminal in Midtown Manhattan. The new cars were then placed into service on the Q train on September 14, 1964, after their New York Central's spring loaded under-running third rail shoes were replaced with gravity type overrunning subway third rail shoes.They are the oldest cars in passenger service in New York City today at 50 years old (the longest for an R-type car), well past the specified service life of 35 years and, according to railfan James Greller, often cited for their superior durability and craftsmanship. They are also the only cars currently in service that were built for the New York City Transit Authority prior to its merger with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority in 1968. Five other car types built after them have been mostly or completely retired. However, many R32s have been retired as well.In August 2011, the New York Times called the R32s "a dreary reminder to passengers of an earlier subterranean era," and said that "time has taken a toll" on the cars. A 2011 Straphangers Campaign survey found that the C train, where the R32s were assigned at the time, had the highest number of breakdowns in the whole system.".
