@Strap Hanger posted:Unreal. I have close to 15 mth subway sets going back to 2004, run them regularly, and have never had any issues with zinc pest. I guess I’m really lucky. The worst issue I had was a light melting a roof on an early red bird model. I fortunately was able to get a new shell and have since put reflective metallic tape on the underside of all my earlier model engine roofs that don’t have the tape. As for my R-12 sets, all are PS-2 and run outstanding with significant miles and no mechanical issues. Real workhorses able to pull the two car add ons with little problems. The only thing is the darn windows needed to be glued back on after a few years for all of them. What a pain. Below is one of them -
Strap Hanger, do you have the LoV Green set? I'm trying to determine the station stops and line. I think one of these sets has a Yankee Stadium stop. I'd like to acquire one more Subway set before MTH folds. I'm referring to either set 30-20395-1 or 30-20580-1.
