Heres a closer look at Blackwood Yard.

New trains get delivered to the north side of the yard.

This yard has a maintenance shop and a car cleaner.

The express tracks west of the IND 185 Street - Jamal Avenue Station connect the (B) and (D) to the yard. The (B) which runs during weekdays usually starts service at the IND 180 Street Station but every now and then a put in from the yard starts at 185 Street - Jamal Avenue.

The (4) has two ways to enter the yard. One is convenient for the layups while the other is convenient for the maintenance shop. Trains heading for the layups usually terminate at the IRT Blackwood Station and use the switches just north of the IRT 195 Street Station and branch off to a section of el that descends and turns west on a sharp curve just south of the station.

The el runs across the northern part of the yard.

Once it hits ground level it hits a series of switches.

Trains heading to the maintenance shop usually use the switches just north of the IRT 185 Street Station and head to a section of el that turns west on a sharp curve underneath the IRT 190 Street Station.

Wow! You really know how to make subway routes! Ypu should release some of these.

Anyway, where did you get that super-long train wash from?
 
Good reskin, but theres no lights running down the middle of the interior, the floors should be black, and you should change the colors of those yellow parts to gray on the exterior. Plus the rollsigns and bulkhead's gotta be updated but its still a good reskin.

I can't remember the name of the carwash. Just search for maintenance or carwash in the DLS under Description.

If they're not running down the middle of the interior, where do they?? I'll change the floors, but what are those yellow body pieces outside titled? I got confused. And the rollsigns and bulk head, I don't think that'll be change on this one.

Here's a pic of an GOH R32 taken by me a few months ago. Notice how theres a LED flipdot sign on the front of the train instead of the paper rollsigns. There's also no express/local indicators or marker lights. The whole train is silver but a bit rusted.

Here's a better look at the side.

The side rollsigns are set up:

[Northern Terminal]

[Southern Terminal]

[(A) via, exp, lcl, etc....]
 
There's not much I can do about the Flip-Dot-Matrix, since I can't modify other people's meshes, and also I'm not sure about changing the lights to run down the side of the interior, but I think I can get the floor black, and if somebody names me the correct body pieces, I can get the Ivory ones outside grey/silver.
