OpenBVE NYC Subway Special: R42 55th Anniversary Run to Essex Street on the RR Line!

Reviving a long gone era of the NYC subway using OpenBVE, a simple train simulator game... Today marks the 55th Anniversary of the R-42 rolling stock, which entered service on May 9, 1969! Retired in early 2020, these subway cars greatly served New York City for many years along with the R-32 which retired two years later! To pay tribute to these great workhorses, let's go back in time to their early years with a sweet little run! When fully delivered in 1970, the R-42s had different rollsign pieces depending on the lines they were assigned to, due to their size. Like the R-40 cars that were originally assigned to the Queens Blvd lines only (E, EE, F, GG & N), the R-42 side rollsigns featured different routings for most lines they were assigned to. Some were quite unusual, like the B & D lines to Second Avenue, and the KK line to Metropolitan Avenue, Rockaway Parkway or Crescent Street... The one that caught my eye was on the RR line rollsigns: 95 Street to Essex Street! Although the RR did use to run officialy via Nassau Street to/from Chambers Street during rush hours (known then as the "Bankers Special"), I ignore why they would have had it to Essex Street and if it ever happened. Perhaps there were plans to add special runs to the Essex Street Market? Whatever it would have been, I found this route interesting enough to recreate and make this special run on, especially since most of the last R-42 cars in service were part of the group that were assigned to the RR line (4808-4851)! Thus for symbolic purposes, I could partly recreate the retirement run set with cars 4826, 4827, 4830 and 4831 in the consist! Route and train model built by me. Route might be released in the future.
