Product Description
The R17 class of cars was one of three fleets purchased in the mid-1950s to replace many of the pre-WWII Interboro Rapid Transit cars. There were 4000 cars in this class, all built by St. Louis Car Company. Among them were cars 6800-6809 which had air conditioning when delivered. The Air Conditioning experiment was considered a failure and the cars were refitted with the standard axiflow fans. As was the practice, the electrical components were split between General Electric (6500-6699) and Westinghouse Electric (6700-6899). The cars came equipped with low running lights at the ends. In 1957 headlights were added to the cars.   During the course of their careers, two cars (6673 & 6786) were wrecked in 1957 and three cars were destroyed by fire (6595, 6597, & 6601) in 1964. The last car was removed from service February 29, 1988.   * Factory-Applied Pantograph Gates   * 5-Pole Skew-Wound Motor with Dual Flywheels   * Close Coupled   * Directional Lighting   * Interior Lighting   * PROTO-Max(TM) All-Metal Knuckle Couplers UPC: 616374069224 Choking Hazard - May contain small parts.
