So I was looking on nycsubway.org in the Coney Island overhaul shop section, and I found this picture of an R32, but what confuses me is the thing on the right. We haven’t had any open gangway trains yet, and this is definitely not an R211T, with the picture being from 2017

I see gangway i want gangway on QBL

If need be could the return as a weekend service to supplement the lack of local 6th Avenue and QBL service from 2nd Av on the F to Forest Hills

I do take QBL every weekend and the 12 minute headways on the are ridiculous. as a weekend service when

What about using the or to Jackson Heights and backtrack with a 2 stops

Staten Islander here Can we have the R46s retiring from the A and C after a few months of refit from CIY

Yeah, I think he's just hearing the news wrong and is over exaggerating the weather reports. Cool thing to keep an eye out for though

I’ve spoken to my dad about going to Jamaica for the GCM shuttle. He says he’s worried about the ice piling up since the Queens section is outdoors. Is this something to be worried about?

1, Didn’t you not have anywhere for the set on Track 3 to go to 2, what crossover 3, what complaints? I’m just curious because it’s been somewhere around 3 months since I touched the 42nd st shuttle

Were they trained for 8 car 60 footers? Or was it just that they were working on the R46 too long and took 8 cars as 75 feet long

Why would it bother riders?

Has anyone thought about cutting the N to 57th and adding another line from Astoria to 2nd Avenue, or just relocating the N to 2nd Avenue in Manhattan entirely to add midtown service

Speaking of the 7, I took the PM rush yesterday and it seemed like there were a lot more express 7s than locals at 61st. Is that just because they’re express?

Why tf did the MTA cut out the R32s because 2 years of low ridership anyway?

I’m stupid then.

Ok hear me out then B and D get based fully out of Concourse. F continues to be based out of Jamaica and Coney is full R68 for the N, Q, W, and G. F runs part time express from Church to Kings Highway and full express from Bergen to Church. The G is full local to Kings Highway or Avenue X

I don’t intend to be rude but: 1: exactly HOW high do you intend the grade at Clifton to be? 2: you’re extending the stations south right? Because Tompkinsville can’t extend any farther in any direction and Clifton has the switch north 3: who is this benefitting. People who need to go to Brooklyn? No they have the more widespread express bus for that. People who need to go to Manhattan? Not if it’s longer than 25 minutes (ferry duration) or they need to get to the W, 4, 5, or 1

I mean, Culver CBTC hasn’t started yet so Broadway can share the R68s with the G, I think

And what leads you to that conclusion? I only ever see R68/As on the W

Do we have any ideas on rolling stock yet? will it be high or low platform my bet is on high platform because the N and L

The SIR, which has been forgotten multiple times by redditors as well: *sad Staten Island noises*

I say R211Ss should be used on the IBX and be added to the Staten Island order

RIP R32s

Off topic question: does anyone know the site that you could choose different times and see New York back in that time. I wanted to see how the Els went across Manhattan again but couldn’t find the site

I live on Queens Boulevard i’m not sure how much sound it would make but it’s already pretty loud with the sirens every night
