i just saw on youtube 4180-4184 is with 4069-4065

This type of misinformation, sourcing......and above-all trolling is laughable to me.

I'll clear this one... AGAIN. 4184 is with 4079 as of Friday night's yard rotations, went to service service Saturday morning and 4065-69 is testing new software upgrades/overhauls at PIT.

Take another L cuz I don't see any videos with that consist nor within my yard records.

115-19 at the Yonkers Facility. The other two are outside with it too.

@Metro CSWDo you have any information about the production R211s as of now 

I can pretty much say that up to 4349 and 140 is within the facility. Bare in mind the Lincoln production duration ranges between 3-6 months and the shells from Kobe come in at a rate of about 3-4 per week to bi-weekly if any delays which can be random. The facility can only house a capacity with about 70-100 cars at max, inside and out to what I was told. 140 just came into the receiving line actually. The production for the base order is excepted to be completed by the end of the year latest to get the green lit for the option cars receiving in January 2025.

With the R44SIR finally getting processed to be scrapped, the pilot is coming closer to debut, actual has to be announced by the MTA themselves.

4050-59

Total amount of R211s in service: 150

Other consists not in service yet

R211A:

4150-59, At Jamaica Yard

4200-09, BIT'd a bit ago

4210-19, BIT'd more recently then 4200-09

4220-34, Delivered recently, at CIY and Pitkin respectively

R211S:

100-104, no words

Total amount of NIS R211s: 50

Notes: Back on schedule! All previously in service R211s are back on the tracks after a ~6 month hiatus with these issues! Now let's just hope this doesn't happen again any sooner.

R211 Deliveries

R211A: 4060-4234, 175 cars or 17 10-car sets and 1 5-car set; Pretty much every set at Pitkin

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

R211S: 100-104, 5 cars or 1 5-car set; set at Clifton

Total number of cars delivered: 200

Notes: The fact that there's still 335 more cars to be delivered to the city just in the abse order kills me.

R211s confirmed as built

Alleged results included...

R211A: 4235-4314, 80 cars or 8 10-car sets (4235-89 most likely built since there's someone here that we can all rely on; 4290-4314 allegedly built)

R211S: 105-134, 30 cars or 6 5-car sets (115-134 allegedly built)

Total cars built and not delivered: 110

Notes: Just hope these are confirmed by September. And if they are, we are just one step closer to completing the Base Order, except there's still maybe around 1,000 more that need to be built if they are confirmed by the MTA themselves

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

255 R211As (4060-4314);  under construction + 640 from Option Order I and God knows what from Option Order II

20 R211Ts (4040-4059); completed

35 R211Ss (100-134); 40 under construction

310 R211s in total, (100-134, 4040-4314)

Yet any Pitkin Pullmans retired...good for them.

Notes: Well, damn.

Notes: You shoulda stopped reading.

But besides that, I hope you liked this! Only did it because 200 R211s are delivered! I'll do this again when ~250 R211s are delivered or when there's too much going on.

Actually consists are as follows:

4090-94 + 4115-19

4095-99 + 4135-39

100-04 still idle at Saint George Terminal (TK 11)

105-114 still at Yonkers and 115-140 are built as of today.

And for the stupid record (**), 4160-64 and 4195-99 are indeed rotated and coupled together after 4080-89. @Seth Jonas You can benefit from doing the "bare-minimum" too.

Just wanted to clear things up, peoples! You know how it is

is r211A 4195-4199  or 4160-4164 relocated when 4080-89 where together

Maybe you can go out, wait on the platforms of 8 Ave and find out for yourself....

Also 4080-84 has returned to service as well. Coupled with 4195-99 as of now.

The consecutive consist are running together as of a couple days ago: 4080-89.

It just seems crazy that the subway cars get trucked one way across the Verrazano, and the SI cars go the other way.

It's not like the SIR system is physically connected to the rest of the borough. Needless to say because it's obvious, the ones you see at Yonkers are only there because the pilot is on hold. Otherwise, they can go directly to Clifton when they are authorized to install contact shoes on their new arrivals.

It's almost like an echo in here.....

Also 4080-84 has returned to service as well. Coupled with 4195-99 as of now.

Shells my guy, shells. Nothing else. 

I do feel like some members have forgotten that the 211s were still being built while delayed

Exactly, my point. Thank you!

You know, you could find it beneficial to use the editing tool.....

Ladies and gentlemen, you love to see it; 4085-89 has returned to service after almost six months OOS. Coupled with 4160-64.

Yep, the 4210-19 consist has touchdown at PIT as of 9 p.m.

4220 is prepping for embark any day now from Lincoln.

The production line is closing in on the 4300s at the moment. (4290)

You need equal trains to make service, not one less. There are WAAAAAAAAAY 2 many errors to make it real. This is an April Fools lame joke. Cause, right now, you need to go to Ohio and tell them you made a BIIIIIGGGGGG mistake

And I thought my sense of humor was bleak....

Also not gonna lie, 100-04 do look good sitting at St. George all these weeks looking like rail display decorations lol.

They did officially say the revenue test got pushed to March 2024 back in December.

Yeah, expectation vs. reality is a total bitch sometimes lol

12 minutes ago, Lawrence St said:

Well, the R211S pilot revenue service is now late indefinitely. So much for a March testing date.

There was nothing that officially confirmed it's debut service date from the jump. Just some "fans" that got carried away and faulty news sources label it as an "expectation"..... Not gonna lie, they haven't trained the all the operators and maintenance on the trains completely so it would be late.

OK great so that means it is "slowly" rolling out.  Let's see if it is completed by the end of 2024 which I doubt.  I think 2025 is more likely to finished deploying OMNY machines.

Most of us in the real world don't care how long it takes as long as they're making progress in some form. They can do it for the rest of the decade for all we know......
