"Let's see...it must have been the time around 1984, when I started to bid and win on these slide auctions at the Urban Transit Club (formerly known as M.E.S.T.A.) "

So that's what happened to MESTA. I used to go to those meetings-they were at the "Y" at 47th St and 3rd Ave. I really remember those meetings because that was the first time I attended a slide auction. I remember that they were auctioning slideds of green R10s, just put in service. I remember someone paid either $45 or $47 for ONE slide. That was when I realized that there were people much crazier about subways than I was. LOL.
