Farewell to the R-30 Fan Trip

On Sunday, May 30, 1993, the Electric Railroaders Association sponsored a "Farewell to the R30" fan trip. The trip covered most of the Brooklyn Elevated lines and visited the yards at Coney Island and 36th Street, and the lower level of the Ninth Avenue station in Brooklyn, yielding some photos of rare equipment and abandoned station areas.
