Lionel scale subway cars are back again in all new class and paint scheme! Class R30 subway cars dressed in vibrant red.
Entering service in 1961, R30 subway cars operated mainly in the Eastern Division of the New York City Transit Authority line. The last of them were retired in 1993 after thirty solid years of service. Dressed originally in Kale green, the R30’s were repainted red in the late 1960’s. A common route for the R30 class was on the designated QJ line which included travel between Queens’ 168th Street and Coney Island.
Featuring the Legacy Control System, Lionel’s R30 subway cars have opening doors and authentic subway sounds. Listen for the operator announcing true-to-life stops along the route. They also feature a wealth of realistic detail, decoration, and lighting features both inside the cars and out.
