The R22 was a New York City Subway car built in 1957 for the IRT division. R22s were the last single cars built prior to the R33WFs in 1963-4. The last R22s were retired on December 30, 1987. Cars 7513, 7509, and 7516 were used as an automatic test train which ran revenue service on the 42st Street Shuttle from January 1962 to April 21, 1964, when a fire partially destroyed the Grand Central Shuttle platform and several cars. A train of R22s were featured in The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, a 1974 film about the hijacking of a subway car, seen in the film as number 7339, on the downtown No. 6 line. Car 7371 survives today at the Seashore Trolley Museum in Kennebunkport, Maine. 7422 is at the New York Transit Museum coupled to R21 number 7194 and just like 7194 is also a former money train car. 7422 may be the only operating R22 on MTA property. In 1995, the R22 were also featured in Money Train, a film in which a Transit cop hijacks and robs the "Money Train." The R22 were modified for the film by the MTA.
