That is, I _think_ the interior was an M-8 (based       on the seats), while the exterior was an M-3 with red striping to       look like an Amtrak train.              I don't know the model of the subway car interior featured in a       recent episode. But I'm guessing an R-44 or R-46.              I wish I knew where the various scenes were filmed, and what       buildings were used as backdrops.              Generally, it's hard to identify locations since they closely       crop the image, and backgrounds are out of focus. (Maybe if I       had high-def and a large screen TV I could tell more.)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
