I Miss R160 Trains

are these R211s?

I wasn't sounding immature, but i was just criticizing MTA. BTW, What is Mod queue? Thank You

ok, i'm calm. i was criticizing the Swaps and the MTA Policies. What is a Mod Queue?

what do you mean?

well i prefer buses over subways, subways are dying anyways and are being replaced by NYC Buses thanks to Corey Johnson and these people in tweet were referring to R46s actually. this guy this as well

you should read people complain below the tweet about the R46s and Astoria Residents are pissed.

Astoria Lines always had been Slow as f**k because Signals were f**king Old and the Elevated Structure which are both originally from 1930's, that's there should be CBTC on Astoria Line.

CBTC in QBL is not done until Q1 of 2021 where R211s are on teh service, R211s are to arrive in conjunction with QBL CBTC in 2021. Read this Link at Page 29, it will show you. EVEN MTA Admit it back in January of Last Year and yet they tricked us. http://web.mta.info/mta/news/books/pdf/190122_1400_CPOC.pdf

I Can't wait for R211s to come around Q3/Q4 of this year or Q1 of next year, MTA should be ashamed of themselves by playing psychological/emotional warfare and game to commuters in Second Avenue/Astoria/Broadway and Sea Beach Line.

This is irrelevant what you're saying, R62s are better off compare to Crappy r46s and R68s on Line, Astoria Line is now suffering from worse delays (People are trapped inside trains and even waiting outside of station platform for hours) because of the complexity of the job, stations being dangerously overcrowded especially on 36th Avenue due to door problems, paying more for a shittier ride consistently, R46s are literally falling apart and suffering from mechanical problems, Also Astoria/UES Residents, Riders on Second Avenue/Broadway/Astoria Line are complaining very badly to MTA's NYCT Subway about it. This is not like the Lexington Avenue Line and this is much much worse. Like I Said Before that MTA should NOT have gotten rid of the new R160s from the Trains and we Astoria residents are f**king Pissed off since December, SHAME ON YOU MTA, SHAME ON YOU!

foamers are idiots and they are part of the problem like MTA, yes R46s are worse than R68s and i agree with you. I've ride the R46s now daily, it is very very shitty as f**k and it has go to go ASAP when R211s arrive in Q3/Q4 2020-Q1 2021. when R211s arrive, I Hope and Wish R160s that were swapped out from Coney Island Yard has to return back to their home (Coney Island Yard) where it was swapped out in December 2019-Q1/Q2 2020.

R46s are stating get bad and suffering mechanical problems, R68s are terrible in and slow as f**k.

like i said before, Astoria residents needs to get ready for more of these mechanical problems because the MTA decided to play psychological and emotional games/warfare by giving us these crappy slow R46s train cars from the 1970s that are literally falling apart. Shame on you MTA.

I've ride the R46s, It is becoming much like R32s and R42s, it is suffering from a mechanical problems and it is falling apart, i'm paying more for a shittier ride consistently thanks to the fleet swap between Coney Island Yard and Jamaica. It takes a Hour from Queensboro plaza to Ditmars blvd where i live.

so that means will be 100% Crappy R46s that is falling apart, Thanks A LOT MTA for Getting Rid of New R160s Trains from Line, Astoria and Upper East Side residents, get ready for more of these mechanical problems because the MTA decided to give us R46s from the 1970s that are literally falling apart badly. To launch CBTC, Remember how long it took for you guys to upgrade the . It will encounter the same or Worse delays because of the complexity of the job, So the R160s should be sent back to the until it's fully ready and by then the new R211s will already be here. The standard should be the newest trains like R211s in Jamaica Yards, The failed design from the older cars like r46s, R68s, R44s and R32s needs to go. You want to regress or progress MTA? Can’t wait to pay more for a shittier ride consistently! that is why Astoria and Upper East Side Residents would like us to know why we now are subject to their failures? smh. 🤦‍♂️

CBTC in QBL it expected to be completed and launched in Q1-Q2 2021, MTA has got nothing but Swap R160s between Coney Island Yard and Jamaica before arrival of R211s, EVEN MTA They EVEN admitted back in January 2019 that R211s will be in service in 2021 conjunction with QBL CBTC and srapping/reefing all R46s from Jamaica Yard, but they TRICKED and LIED to us by to giving us the crappy R46s from the 1970s that are literally falling apart badly. smh 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

90% of and Many of trains I’ve taken and seen are now the old crappy R46s cars, The standard should be the newest trains like R211s in conjunction with QBL CBTC, The failed design from the older cars like the R46s, R68s, R44s and R32s needs to go (Bye Bye). You want to regress or progress MTA? Can’t wait to pay more for a shittier ride consistently! smh 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

This is why the MTA should NOT have gotten rid of the new R160s from the Trains. Astoria and Upper East Side residents, get ready for more of these mechanical problems because the MTA decided to play psychological and emotional games/warfare by giving us these crappy R46s train cars from the 1970s that are literally falling apart smh. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ And To launch CBTC. Remember how long it took to upgrade the . it will encounter the same or much worse delays because of the complexity of the job. So the R160s should be sent back to the Coney island Yard until you’re fully ready, And by then the new R211s will already be here. Astoria and Upper East Side Residents would like to know why we now are subject to their failures? smh 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

MTA now says all R32s will be retired in Spring 2020

Thank You for Explaing, because @R32 3838 and @nightmare402 don't even know and have a clue what they're talking.

YES all R46s will be replace by R211s, it even MTA Said it will Replace all R46s, All R46s are Old.

Also the as well

R46s are Old that is why digital side destination signs flipping like crazy, when R211s arrived in Q3-Q4 2020 and put in service in 2021, R211 cars would be produced and delivered at a rate of 30 to 40 cars per month by replacing all R46s and R44s, perhaps R68s if structural integrity issues found on R68s like it did with NYCT R44s that caused the Option 2 Order of R160s by replacing all NYCT R44s.

8th Avenue CBTC will not be compatible with R211s? First of all, I'm fully aware of Fleet Swaps Between CI Yard and Jamaica, Second I'm aware that Jamaica will be fully R160s but when R211s are replacing R46s, R211s produced and delivered at a rate of 30 to 40 cars per month, it will be going to first to CI Yard and Pitkin by Replacing all the R46s and R44s, then after that it will go to Jamaica Yard in conjunction with the installation of CBTC on the IND Queens Boulevard Line, by that time in 2021 CBTC in QBL will be completed and activated. so that means Jamaica Yard might be fully R211s and Coney Island Yard might be R160s again.
