now to make room for the incomng 62's the surplus left over of the R142A fleet on the will have to go some where. because Westchester Yard can not handle all those cars. a friend T/O of mine told me some of the surplus would go to either
Unionport Yard
180th Street Yard or
Wakefield Yard now if those yards cant handle them where will they go? Jerome aint got room and Concourse is full of the 68's with no room to spare. what other yards are left Livonia? lenox? 240th? with half the fleet going to the thats going to be a huge surplus of trains. or are some of those 62's going to get stripped and scrapped?
how come if the original R142 design went to Bombardier and i know it's the R142A's made by kawasaki but i think the conversion should have been done by the original makers of the R142 series, Bombardier Transportation
i would like 2 R142 sign's saying

The Next Stop Is 161st Street

the second saying

The Next Stop Is Simpson Street
5:00pm
