Famous New Yorker Really from St. Louis – R30 Transit Authority
This native New Yorker was birthed by the St. Louis Car Company in 1960. These cars always came in pairs as they where joined at the hip.
After 30+ yrs of operation the New York City Transit Authority R30 was decommissioned and allowed to retire in peace.
To date we believe there are 5 of the original multi generational urban transit historians left. One of which interestingly enough is used as, of all things… an office!
There was originally a fleet 250 cars strong, each car boasting 150 horses. That translates into 50 full size men and women arriving at their destinations from a 55mph scenic trek around the Big Apple!
