Train of Many Colors
The Train of Many Colors is one of the New York Transit Museum's IRT nostalgia trains used for excursions. The name comes from the fact that the cars are painted in many varying schemes from different eras.
During the 2004 Subway Centennial, some of the cars were used for regular service on the 42nd Street Shuttle route. In addition, the cars may be used to commemorate a special occasion.
Some of the cars are housed in the New York Transit Museum when not used for excursions. Others are stored at the 207th Street Yard.
There are 16 cars painted in various schemes as listed below.
