Old Door Chimes

Too dark to get a gar number, but it sounds like this car.

3146 is on the Blue Line now, spotted last night at Largo. I walked through it to check it out, and the light in there is really creepy. Too blue. However, stranger is seeing it at the platform:



That blue glow on the platform... very weird. Especially since they only did one car and not both in the pair.

The new lights seen on that car are standard for the 7k and the 4k rehabs. So yes, we will be seeing more of that.

However, the old door chimes we all like have a new home. PATH is using them on the new PA-5 cars being built by Kawasaki. Yes, they live on...just in NYC instead of DC.
