Remarks & Notes

For awhile in the late 1970s there was a deadline sitting along Route 9 in Croton NY with a selection of the original PC/MTA painted FL9s (with white nose) and some never repainted New Haven units. What I remember about this photo is that I had convinced my mom to take me up there to get some shots and the two of us walked the deadline together. Probably was unsafe and for sure was trespassing but it all seemed much different back then.
