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!

My R211 fleet list has 4235-4289 as “supposedly built” and 4290-4309 as “being built” until we have photos 

If only y'all could see the backlog of body shells at Kobe

It's been said to death here that wiki is not a credible nor reliable source. You want to try again?

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

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...... 

169th Street have received a vending machine near the 168th Street exit.

Is it testing so it can be used on QBL or is it testing its own CBTC internal system?

.....As it has been mentioned in previous pages, and confirmed internally, it's only for the CBTC.

To add to the 4150 consist update, It is actively testing along QBL between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m. for the time being.

Anyways, the current consists are as follows:

4060-4069 (rotated after its anniversary before reconnecting again; pilot consecutive consist)

4070-74 + 4125-29

4075-79 + 4110-14 (NIS as of this week, last seen 6 days ago)

4090-99 (consecutive consist first time after 9 months)

4100-04 + 4130-34

4105-09 + 4190-94

4115-19 (last seen 3 days ago with 4135-39)

4120-24 (NIS; last seen on the 7th with 4110-14 but was rotated)

4140-44 + 4160-64 (rotated after the pilot anniversary and reconnected)

4145-49 + 4165-69 (never separated)

4150-59 standing by for CBTC testing at JAM

4170-79 (consecutive consist; never separated)

4180-89 standby for pre-service evaluations; software updates at PIT.

4195-99 + 4135-39 (current consist as of 3/27)

4200-09 the newest standby with the 4080 and 4180 consists

4210-14 at CIY

The consist for R211T never separated and the SIR units are still awaiting acceptance and the pilot run on hold.

Y'all really didn't need to bring attention to "Mr. waste of thread space" over here..... LOL.

They've been there for a couple months now.....

4205-09 were delivered??? Some say it was

Yes, was delivered last week

Look at Metro CSW's post and then my post above that. I pointed that out yesterday. As he said, it was only to see if the pilots can go with production cars.

Plus, that video was three days ago via Discord then uploaded on YouTube afterwards. Sure its prove of the movements on said day, however that doesn't stop the video from being pointless, even in the little scheme of things.... it's only evidences of my tracking..... If anybody is paying an attention to the rails, you'll notice that the 4180-set is still on burn-in test as I type this. Give a couple days for service.

^You live, you learn. Next....

4185-89 is with 4060-64 as of today

Incorrect: 4180-89 are linked for burn-in as of today. That was only linked to rotate around Pitkin earlier this week and test the pilots' link with other sets. The pilots are still separated in different lanes of the yard along with 4080-84.
