R32sdabest

LOL it looks like the R32 is not wanted anymore.

There's an R62 that has R62A side signs

5029 has been part of JA since June

I think repainting and redecaling buses is a waste of money and time. They were fine before.

At least they're better than Bloomberg's!

 

I caught half of the wrap set last night at GCT. I forget the numbers, but there was a RFW on the manhattan bound side and the wraps were on the west half of the train.

I saw 9899 was with a tow truck at Parsons Blvd & Archer Avenue

9836 and 9899 back to back Q23

9905 Q69

9889 Q101

The southern portion is going to be using CIY equipment, so it's always POSSIBLE. More possible on the weekends when they aren't busy being used on the ..... but on weekends they're running full length via the bridge so CIY is only contributing 4 sets. So no, don't count on it.

On weekends, the will be rerouted via the Manhattan Bridge in both directions and I'm wondering if it'll be a part of Jamaica yard only at the time or by both Jamaica and Cony Island Yard

Seems plausible to me. Nice to see the ole R46s back on the F. Though I wish they were in better shape. The reason I like the R160s is they're obviously in great shape and have quite a bit of giddyup. Those Jamaica R46s often have bucking, are creaky and just plain slow compared to the R160s. Still, nostalgia and all, I'm cool with it.

According to this... http://www.thejoekorner.com/carassignments/index.html

 

After the gets split in two sections, the Southern Portion of the will use Coney Island Alstom R160's and the will have 16-17 trains of R46 during Rush Hour...

 

...Now that roster isn't 100% accurate. (Actually it mostly is, but the likes to change things at the last second ). Anyway, if you notice it says R160B-1 on the only. Same with the . If the still uses Siemens, then the will most likely as well. Also, I'm pretty sure Jamaica Yard will send some of its R160s back to CI (Likely 9198-9232) (until the service gets restored), or CI won't have enough R160s to put on the (It makes sense when you look at it, otherwise CI would be short on cars and JY would have all these extra R160s).

 

Like I said, its not 100% accurate. It also says the is 100% R68 (No R68A, which is not true).

 

But i'm looking forward to those R46 . It will be the old days all over again . (Now if only they would bring back the R32 ).

For the first couple of weeks. As soon as it was possible, they brought the 46s down to the Rockaways for the and the 32s went back to the .

I think this is the time to leave the RFW behind and move on. I don't care about the railfan window since the full width cab still allows me to see the front which I am still okay with that. Those foamers who hog the RFW should also move on from the railfan window. You leave the past behind and move on to the future.

Yukon is short?

Explain how that will work with OPTO?

The line is going to be full of foamers on Wednesday.

*sigh* I was hoping for R68s.

I was on Facebook and I saw an R62A train at New Lots Avenue. Yes there's pics

Depends on when that R32 was seen and how old this person is. I, personally, and some sites online have seen such an sight before. I first saw it back in the 1960's, LOL.. You need pictures? Try subway.org.

About the fare situation just roll with it for today. I know I'm usually on the strict side of imposing fare regulation, but if you put that cash on your Metrocard the MTA will get that money anyway.

 

And yes, the earlier C40LF's are not equipped with the LBSS system. Now that's a true C40 there.

 

LOL, those ads actually look great on the C40LF's. It's safe to assume these will become prevalent in the outer boroughs. If they're streaming in more revenue I'm all for it.

Ok. Here's a random thought. My friend told me that his brother supposedly saw an R32 on the and he's saying that he's not lying and all that. I don't believe it, until there's proof. PLEASE DON'T FOAM!!!

There's an RTS in QV that screeched when it took off. A little similar to the original 1000s D60

I saw 3671 at ENY yard today

Theres ALOT of R32's dominating the (J)/(Z) line

So now I'm also hearing that the R40 pair at Concourse is also going

9871 was on the Q25 LTD earlier. I guess 9874 retired from CP.

There wouldn' t be enough thats why the got R160s to get extra service because the R160s couldnt handle it alone , there would have been a huge car shortage if the r32s had retired
