When are Subway charters run?

[KFRG]

I know that there are chartered railfan trips operated all over the system. Are these operated by the transit museum? I have been wanting to take a ride on one.

Thanks,

you'll have to check out the transit museum's web site for information about charters...

also check out the Urban Transit Club for more information:

The TA also runs charter trips; specifically to benefit the March of Dimes (MOD).

MOD trips were operated last Saturday and Sunday.

Another place to get information on subway charters is NYCsubway.org. Their "Upcoming Events" page covers both MOD and Transit Museum charters.

There is also going to be a night time run for the first time in a long time.
It is also going to be run by the March of Dimes by Subdivision C like the recent gate car runs.
This one is going to be using the R9's and it will leave from the abandoned center platform at 59th Street-Columbus Circle next Saturday the 14th. I'm not sure what time, but I'm sure someone else will have that information.
Unfortunately, I will be out of state for this one.

The train will arrive at 4:30 PM next Saturday @ 59th St. Usually the route of the trip is posted to Subtalk the day before, but now ...
