That's the beauty of the R160. They have programs for reroutes that will probably never happen.
This is a Jamaica - 179th Street bound V train via the F line. The next stop is 21st Street - Queensbridge. Stand clear of the closing doors please.

Exactly. That's what makes crazy R160 signage LESS "foam-worthy" IMOThat's the beauty of the R160. They have programs for reroutes that will probably never happen.
. I mean, I'm sure you can find a program for something like an 
to Rockaway Park via Concourse Express...

I like how the MTA programming for dramatic reroutes such as 
to Far Rock exist, yet a simple programming like 
to 168 st or 
to South Ferry Don't exist. It makes no sense.
Nice catch whoever took the video, though that dramatic music is kinda tacky...
EDIT: I found another one, credits to whoever took the video on YT:
This time it's
to Jamaica-179... at least thats what I see.

There are some interesting route options on the 142s, like the 6 to New Lots or Woodlawn or the 5 to Times Sq or South Ferry via 7th Avenue. It's just that there aren't a whole lot of places you can send these trains on the A-Division. That's what limits the amount of line reroute options.

I can't believe there's a
