Will the exterior be just as realistic/detailed as the new R46 exterior?

That looks cool Zero! 1 thing that is bothering me is the rollsign it should be boxed in for the NYCS and SI R-44's.
http://www.nycsubway.org/perl/show?28722
http://www.nycsubway.org/perl/show?109978
Noticed how they look perfectly squared.

The NYC Subway Rollsign/Endsigns are boxed in with 2 squares which is why it is very easy to tell if an R-46 or 44 is coming in b\c the R-44's rollsigns are dimmer lite and lower and obviously boxed in smaller.

http://www.nycsubway.org/perl/show?112180

All I'm suggesting is making the end signs a bit smaller.If you don't have the time to do it I am willing to fix that problem and make the signs myself or resize them.

Looks great!

That's not exactly true. A lot of NYCT R44s look just the same as the R44 SIRTs in terms of rollsign looks.

I guess what I'm showing here is old glass and what you're showing is a newer version that replaced the older?

And also, zerobeats, you forgot to remove the carbon steel band on the R44 SIRT.

Other than that, this looks great!  :)

The Subway 44's do have 2 squares compared to the SI 44's b\c they don't have the circle with the letter its just a perfect square end/rollsign.But its not much of a big deal just decrease the size of the end signs and possibly put a square so the rollsign will look more smushed instead stretched out in size.

Looking good! ;D But keep in mind that the SIRT R44's don't have the white band on the side, basically the SIRT R44's are identical to the R46's on the outside. The SIRT R44's also have light-blue seats as well IIRC. But it looks very good so far! Can't wait to see what the finished SIRT panel will be like ;D

All of the GOH R46's have white bands on the sides, because there's a blue band underneath.

The SIR R44 has the same color seats as the R110B R142 R142A/S R143/R160
