Or do this: 170-168-167-166-169

Eh...That set would be 165-169, not 166-170. But hey, it works!

UPDATE ON THE R211S AS OF 2/6/24

R211s in service

R211A: 60 cars, or 6 10-car trains (technically 80 if it weren't for all those issues), all trains currently run on the  line

4060-69, pilot, definitely needs to get washed

4070-74, 4115-19

4075-79, 4090-94

4095-99, 4130-34

4100-04, 4120-24

4110-14, 4125-29

R211T: 20 cars, or 2 10-car trains, all trains currently run on the  line

4040-44, 4050-54

4045-49, 4055-59

Total amount of R211s in service: 100 technically, 80 currently

All are at pitkin

Other consists not in service yet and TBD sets

R211A:

4080-84, 4140-44

4145-49, 4165-69, soon to enter service, BIT'd on 2/4

4085-89, still OOS; getting fixed

4105-09, other set TBD

4135-39, other set TBD

4150-54, other set TBD

4155-59, other set TBD

4160-64, other set TBD

4190-94, other set TBD

4195-99, other set TBD

R211S:

100-104

Total amount of R211s not in service: 40 technically, 60 currently (not counting the R211S), 45 technically, 65 currently (counting the R211S)

Notes: 4085-89 is still getting fixed unless otherwise. 4080-84 went into service on 8/17/23, but because of flat wheels, gearbox issues and then more cars from CIY after the issues, it paired up with 4140-44. 4135-39 went into service with 4130-34 in October (don't remember exact date), but 4130-34 left with 4095-99. So as of now, it's new set to pair up with is TBD, which is also why 4105-09 is TBD because it was paired with 4095-99.

There are a total of 100 cars in service (4040-4139) technically, but let's see what 4080-84, 4085-89, 4105-09, and 4135-39 are up to after the gearbox, flat wheel issues, and other sets replacing them. So right now, there's only 80 cars, ranging from 4040-4079, 4090-4104, and 4110-4134.

R211Ss do not connect with each other, they stay 5-car sets because it's Staten Island. They might switch them up, Ex. 170-126-147-103-169 but that would be stupid as it's fine being like this. Ex. 100-101-102-103-104

R211 Deliveries

R211A: 4060-4169, 4190-99, 120 cars or 12 10-car sets; 4150-64, 4190-99 at CIY; rest of cars at Pitkin

R211T: 4040-4059, 20 cars or 2 10-car sets; all at Pitkin

R211S: 100-104, 1 5-car set; set at Clifton; will hopefully see service next month

Total number of cars delivered: 145

Notes: Not much, just that there are many more to come, numbered 110-174, 4170-4189, 4200-4499, and more numbers TBD for the Option Order cars.

R211s confirmed as built

So, besides the ones that are already delivered to the city, here are the other ones that are confirmed as built.

R211A: 4170-4189, 4200-4234, 55 cars or 5 10-car sets and 1 5-car set; All at Lincoln, NE at the Kawasaki plant

R211S: 105-109, 5 cars or 1 5-car set; At Kawasaki Yonkers plant in Yonkers, NY, north of The Bronx; All remaining R211Ss will most likely get delivered to Clifton, not SBK

Total cars built and not delivered: 65 

Notes: There's probably more cars built, but so far, we got these guys.

Add that up with the delivered cars and you get...

175 R211As (4060-4234); 265 under construction + 640 from Option Order I

20 R211Ts (4040-4059); completed

10 R211Ss (100-109); 65 under construction

205 R211s in total, still... (100-109, 4040-4234)

And Many 44s and 46s to be replaced...May y'all rest in peace...starting soon...

Notes: And Option Order II is still up for grabs between the As and Ts. We don't even know how many cars are in the order. It's either 333 or 437 cars, some 5 and 4-car sets. This will get revealed after the Ts receive some feedback on their features, and themselves in general, that way we know. It will take until maybe 2025 to see what's gonna go on.

I did it again because like, there's so many updates for like no reason. Hope you like this!

Yeah some conquestors apparently broke into the back cab of one of them and changed it to an L program (it got taken out of service).

4055-59 got changed to the L to 'Last stop' 8 Av- 14 St. The set got taken out of service (with 4045-49) at West 4 St, then took a trip to the yard. Hopefully it will come back to service tomorrow. Maybe it's in service today.

Y'all ain't catchin me at a hotel, no, no, no. If you see, me, you see me. Otherwise, you don't. I'm gonna be in Manhattan and Bklyn, and possibly even The Bronx, but no Queens and SI (both possible).

My goal for this trip is to catch most if not all NYC rolling stock, from 46 to 188 (ye naw I ain't lucky, so I might or might not catch a 211). So see ya!

Hopefully the rumors are true because that way I don’t have to see the 179s on the a&c  lines especially the c.

Are you still calling the 179s lemons? They're like the most reliable subway car right now. (not counting 211s because they didn't run for a year yet, hell we don't even know if they're reliable.) They can get out of the C but the A line is staying 179 according to @R32 3838. So, they're not gonna be all gone from 8 Av but 4 car sets will be.

the wayfinding signage is supposed to be on the "A"s as well, and I have seen it active on 4135/59

Nice, but that's a new consist. Pretty cool to see those.

lol you're all the way in Florida, you definitely don't have a clue about much.

And it does matter, prototype cars are basically test fleets, ala R110s.

The R211Ts are prototypes to determine to see whether or not the MTA will even consider ordering more open gangway cars. Nowhere in their presentations or memos did they state that they are running a 30-day test. Just because you say they are, doesn't mean they are. The R211A was the baseline for the R211Ts, since the internals are virtually the same except for the gangways and some other minor differences, hence why a 30-day test isn't necessary.

Like I said, source your claims and stop spouting nonsense before you end up getting the boot.

Flat spots are a common thing out in Staten Island. Whether or not it gets taken care of, it'll happen again, especially with leaves and such on the rails.

Yes.

Did 30-day testing restart because of the door problem

https://youtu.be/0YBcVSpYwF8?si=kw3jaLbeb_Hpyfjh

At around 7:40 you see 4070 got tagged a lil.

The c runs weekends right? Or am I on somethin

Wait, wait, wait. I'm straight up confused. It went into service and got taken out why? Was it time to go to Pit? Problems already? Like damn, it's been only 1 day.

Let's go, boys!!! We got one, we need one!

Ahhh, developing sightings: 4165-49 testing at Broad Channel

Pitkin Yard consist: Track #15: 4059-55x4049-45 & Track #16: 4044-40x4054-4050

More within the barn:

4140-44x4080-84 (just a newb putting a another newb from sick leave....)

4145-49 (was seen lasted with 4165-69)

4075-79 (was putted with 4105-09 for two weeks; disconnected on 01/28/24)

4135-39 (broke up with its debut partner, nothing personal; on stand-by)

What I've seen in-service so far today:

4060-4069 (The OG keeping it strong for 6 months straight now; goes to show you that the prototype models are better than the production 'quality')

4099-95x4130-34 (Another case of a newb picking up a sick leave newb; as of 01/25/24)

4105-09x4094-90 (as of 01/29/24)

4100-04x4125-29 (as of 01/15/24)

4110-14x4120-24 (as of 01/25/24)

Schoolcar consists for today:

4070-74x4115-19 (was in service since 01/08/24)

Excuse the cringe commentary lol

So I'm guessing 4085-89 and 4195-99 still at CIY? My predictions will be 

4085-89x4075-79

4135-39x4195-99

For now at least

Ok now which sets are the once in service cause this list looks scrambled. So the 4080-4084 returned to service. 

Look at the last page (Page 282). This update was only for consists, not in service.

I wanted to make a thread about my trip to the City, from 2/15 - 2/19. I put this in the NYC Subway category so it can be more noticeable. I will take pictures and videos of the Subways and buses. I'm also gonna go to the NYTM because I said so. Now You can ask me questions and such, And I'll update the thread when I need to.
