Anyone know where the 10 car set is

Based on these numbers, 2 8 car trains plus 13 10 car trains need to be delivered. 

I'm assuming that the rest of the 10 car r179's will be delivered once 3010-3019 concludes the passenger testing and this train has been doing much better than 3058-3065 with this test.

anyone know where 3010-3019 is at

I doubt that the J will get extended, since there's always issues along 4th Avenue/Dekalb Avenue, especially during the evenings. I think the G will get the 8 car r160's with the r211's. Let's see what happens.

wait , what do you mean by the J might be extended and what does 4th Ave gotta do with a J extension 

anyone saw it today ?

Yesterday, Traveling on the  train bound for Brooklyn, but got off at Chambers St/WTC, I saw two teenage girls sitting next to me. The one sitting in the center was in an argument on the phone, and some guy across the way though that she was saying something to her, and he took it seriously. He flew over to where she was sitting and threatened to beat her. 

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOO oh shit

anyone know where it’s at now ?

I don't think so, but we can wish. It would increase capacity by 12.5%, which is not an insignificant number.

Interesting

They can. The BMT used to run 8 car trains of 67 foot long cars = 536 feet. Metropolitan Avenue can only fit 8.

you think they’ll ever use 9 cars on the (j) line

is it just me or do the platforms on the J line look like they can accommodate 9 cars ?

I hope to catch an R179 on the when I make my next trip to New York either in June or July.  I enjoyed riding one last summer on the .  I'm planning to stay in the Rockaways when I return.  I'm fine with catching an R46 on the as well because I like their seats where you sit by the window without twisting your neck around to look outside.

Yo deadass , that window seat be blessing , especially on the 68’s
