There’s a cool bar in DC which is built out of an old Metro car, I’d love to see stuff like that in NYC

The problem is the old carbon steel Redbirds were OK for reefs. The Brightliners were made from stainless and disintegrated.

The practice of using old subway cars to help build new coral reefs is still done today to my knowledge but it has to be done with more sturdily built

I get nostalgic for the Redbirds. They remind me of class trips on the 7 train

The Transit Museum had a photography exhibit about the reef project a few years ago. Really amazing images.

I'm all about preservation of old trains that aren't around anymore so I'd like to see some of these saved and operated but reefs are cool!

The subway cars are hot spots for fishing. You can catch some good fish there
