The can get away with keeping R68's and R68A's until about 2028-2030 because CBTC on 6th Ave have been delay.

I think those 8 car set of R179's on C will go to East New York Yard.

if they want the C line to be 10car set trains, then it's likely the 8 car sets of R179's are likely to go to ENY for

I think someone saw the r211 to Rockaway park recently, I think they're going to move the 8 car R179's out of pitkin/207th to another yard first.

it's possible as rumored that 10 car sets R179 is coming off the going to Jamaica to beef up fleet size for lines once the option order start coming in, then we could see gets R211's, Car Equipment could do a 180 and send option order R211 to Jamaica, 8car R179 could go to ENY for services. Btw i saw 4190-4199 in service on 2 days ago at work.

The R68A's will be stuck on for while until about end of 2027, the way how R211's deliveries are coming along, The should be 100% R179 and R211's by end of 2025 based on deliveries rates 20 cars per month, so basically we won't likely start seeing R211A's on other lines until beginning of 2026 or end 2025.

I would say the will be NTT by 2027 that's when approximately option order 1 will be finished, It's will be 100% NTT by 2025, NYCT can afford to allow to be R68/A's for little longer until about 2027 option order to be done.

how long is usually the burn in testing is.

Those NTT trains (R211s or R160) could show up on on weekends when the is not running, yep CI can handle two types of equipment they always have been in the past.

Your right just in case of reroutes, such as running on 8th Avenue line from 59 St to W 4th St, we could have a small period of time up to a year until option 2 R211's comes in few R68's will be stuck on or .

R211 option 2 will likely be R211T's, The is about to see weekday service increases next year, and will see increase of weekend service, they need to make sure they have enough cars for 2024.

I agreed with you bro, The MTA should of put the r46's on the now on weekdays so they wont be used too often on 24/7 lines like lines.

The can actually get R211's, if that's true then it's likely that Coney Island will used the R211's on on Saturdays and Sunday. The need new trains they have the same trains for 35 years.

The R46 should have been went on the instead of the .

are getting the base order of R211A's for sure, some R179 8cars will likely be move from the to other lines such as could allow the be 8 car train R211A option could go to the and if they go to the those same R211's could show up on and on weekends when is not running. The rest of the option of R211's go to the
