STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Following a 2-year hiatus, MTA New York City Transit has announced the return of its annual tradition of Holiday Nostalgia Rides on the New York Transit Museum’s vintage fleet.
In honor of the exhibit “Reign of the Redbirds,” the Holiday Nostalgia Train will feature the Train of Many Colors, which includes a selection of cars manufactured in the 1960s: the R-33, R-33WF and R-36 cars.
This year, riders will also find the train traveling along a new route. On Nov. 27, Dec. 4, 11 and 18, the Train of Many Colors will be making all local stops between Chambers Street and 137th Street to City College Street stations, from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m..
With “Tartar Red” and “Gunn Red” redbirds, Kale Green “Green Machines”, blue-and-silver “Platinum Mist” and the striking two-tone robin’s egg blue and cream “Bluebird” paint schemes, the festive Holiday Nostalgia Train represents several different eras in New York City subway history.
For just the cost of a MetroCard swipe or OMNY tap, riders can experience a chance to travel through time as they hop aboard and celebrate the magic of New York City during the holidays.
