The refuse trains really dont smell or have rats on them The containers are stored in the refuse rooms at the end of the platform and in specially built holders on the elevated structure When they get them out of the room there is so much banging around that the rats scurry all over the place The refuse doesnt stay there that long and doesnt usually smell as everything is bagged and tied. The operators of the refuse trains are in the C division which is work trains Its a young man job You dont see too many elder statesmen in work trains. The refuse trains run in non rush hours They run all day and night. Depends on the line to see which equipment is used The Brighton line uses a diesel and two flats. BMT/IND lines use either R127/R134 or R32's now They dont like to use all R127/R134 because they tend to gap on switches hence the R32 pair on the other end IRT will use R127/R134 and also R62's There really isnt any more R36 used on refuse trains
