Finally! Now there's double the chance to catch an R179
Is this one not trackable as well?
Caught that exact same set testing before it went into service.

There is no decesion yet on the R42 future assignments
Might as well keep them on the (J). Since the
shutdown is not happening there really won't be a need to move equipment around as much.

It's sitting at 190 st right now still waiting for it to move for those of you still looking for it heading to 207th.

Again, why would the
line need R32’s ? The R68’s from the 
will be MORE than enough coverage for train service. As far as R32’s on the I personally don’t see it happening but it’s possible for Coney Island to house R32’s again... Supervision would probably run 480ft and 600ft trains on the same line as they do with the 
That wouldn’t surprise me.
The
would need R32s for additional service since they are converting to 8 cars. So the most likely would get the 32s.

This article may interest some of you I've noticed that the 179s have had their fair share of consistent breakdowns and defects. I am aware of the possibility that can just be an effect of the "New Subway Car Phase" but I would like to shed some light on what is going on specifically. My experiences with the 179s personally haven't been really good.

Saw 3181-3184 testing last night at Fulton St. It had an "8 AVE EXPRESS" signage.

Would any of you know what time the daily rush hour 68
departs 96 st.

Not tho derail this thread off topic but where do the R42s fit in this equation? Are they going to be reserved after the shutdown or are they going to the (B)?
0 -
The R42s will be reserved for (B) service correct? Nothing's retiring till after the (L) shutdown.

There's currently a 143 on the

The 42s could possibly go to C.I as well aren't the 42s very frowned upon(possibly banned) from 207 st yard.

Anyone else notice that the R42/R32 has painted roofs that are NOT consistent in color?? Why is this being done. Especially for R32’s why does it matter for their roofs to look shiny or new?
It's necessary because the roofs are detoriating fast. The roofs (before SMS) had a whole bunch of scrachitti on them and it looked terrible. I remember that's how the 38s went when they literary had to put tape on the roofs.

Will all of the R32s be remove from
service?

There no R train service from 36 St-(BKLYN) to 95 St in both directions because of debris on the tracks at 86 St.
There is R shuttle train service between 36 St (Bklyn) and Bay Ridge-95 St in both directions. Southbound R trains are stopping along the D line from 36 St (Bklyn) to 9 Av then end.
Crazy!!
Southbound E trains are stopping along the F line from 2 Av and end at Church Av. Details at https://t.co/vhZQ2kZ2vb
Happy foaming.
Wasn't 86 st one of the stations next in line to get renovated to?

When a guy that has a foot in the door with the MTA says “enjoy the Railfan Window on the
and the “, and the only railfan window left on the B Division other than the 42 is the 32, then it’s easy to put one and one together.
Sure, there might be air conditioning issues, but a good amount of time in an outdoor yard and two sections of outdoor (remember, Prospect Pk isn’t the last time the
goes above ground, the Manhattan Bridge is) is way more than enough. It’s confirmed, and that’s that.
Actually not all of the R62As have been converted to full width cabs yet. Just staring out of the Front window on the
train yesterday.
Edit: lol silly me reread and just noticed you said "B division". My apologies.

They can be if any incident happens on the Manhattan Bridge that requires it to temporarily close until whatever issue clears up.
They can also be rerouted to the
line or even the and lines. Just seen a train at York St last week and I've took the 
train to Chambers St before.
