March 2012 Subway MDBF


Recommended Posts


Generally, it seems like most of the fleets' MDBF has changed for the worse, but the most important question is-

What the hell is wrong with the R-42s? I mean really, 23,000 miles? They're going to have to perform SMS on those cars or something.

They're 40 years old and were never expected to still be in service. As for an SMS, I think the (MTA) is waiting to see how the R32s handle with their SMS. If they can lower the currently high spare factor for the R32s, they may be able to send some over to the (J) line and finally put the R42s down. Of course, this is all speculation, so don't read that much into this.

Well i'm not a Jamaica rider.The first time I rode was last year so that I could say iv'e ridden all subway lines. Except for that one trip on Saturdays, I thought they were just used on the (Z).
