Maserati7200 Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share #26 Posted August 12, 2009 You do that and i'll make sure you are demoted before that actually becomes official.... AMEN! Except for the R44/R68 switch. I wouldnt think train riders would like to get demoted to R44s, those cars are in terrible shape. For me, I would honestly split the & lines fleet instead of a complete switch. Have both lines share the cars. I like some diversity and that would totally show it. No offense to people who like R44's, but I hope they stay far away from Coney Island yard. IMO, R68/A's should stay in Coney Island until they're retired.

Rutgers Tube Posted August 12, 2009 Share #27 Posted August 12, 2009 thanks for that........ok I change it a little..... r46 and r 32 and will be split r62 and r142.....most liky da train we get the least of the r142 .......the r 62 will them be refitted tohave blue seats and black floors.... stay r62 but will refitted to be standing only...... stay r62.....blue seats black floors....and lcd local and express buses signs...... How about that....... ........ I like the "SRO" on the 42nd-Street , but I'd keep that an NTT line for CBTC, unless you plan on waiting for the R188s'. And yes, the R62's should have blue seats and black floors - that orange and yellow color scheme is gross, and I think the new colors would look hot with the shiny interior of the car. I think a bulk of the R62A's should go back to the . The COBRA braking system is ideal for that line, with all of the braking work done. Not to mention that the will be most likely become CBTC-compliant long before the ever is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilbluefoxie Posted August 16, 2009 Share #29 Posted August 16, 2009 IRT - kept a pattern where the lines with redbirds got 142s R62 R142 R62 R62 R142 R142 R142 R62 B-div (keeping R32s at least as long as the R10s to keep G with enough cars) R44, R46 ( R68, R160 R44, R46 R68 R160 R160 R32, R46 (will get R188 for future CBTC) R44 (possible CBTC candidate) R160 R143 R160 R160 R68, R160 R46 R68 R32, R46 R160 R160 I cant tell teh difference between the regular and A cars (eg R62/R62A, so wherever the "A" cars are now, put em there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trainmaster5 Posted August 16, 2009 Share #32 Posted August 16, 2009 For the IRT I say keep the equipment where it's at. There is no equipment barn that can service R62/62A cars and NTT cars properly. It's either one or the other. Otherwise the reliability of both types of rolling stock suffers.

LandoftheLost Posted August 16, 2009 Share #35 Posted August 16, 2009 if you would like to see R160 run on the .( no harm , you would consider to tell (NYCT) that you want 5 car unit of R160 to run on the . so you would consider 10 cars will run on the .if R160 would run on the .

R62A need to get retofitted. replace the bucket seat with blue/ perwinkle bench need to be placed on R62A. so R62A will able to run on the .

cdi919 Posted August 17, 2009 Share #38 Posted August 17, 2009 in the A div i would have 142's on every line, because they breakdown more often and that would mean more droped trips for me. theres nothing better than getting paid to watch tv.

R32 3348 Posted August 17, 2009 Share #39 Posted August 17, 2009 R62/62A <7>R142A You can't separate the fleets since both trains have to be local in one direction at all times. Also, <7>s frequently turn into (7)s at the terminals, and vice versa. May sound werid, but make an R160 IRT version B)! i know that wont happen but seems k0ol.! Because it's my idea and I replied to it. MTA could spend mo' money cbtc will be spreading out right Spending more money is the absolute last thing the is planning on doing right now...and the doesn't have any CBTC equipment installed along the line. Installing it would take years so there's no point putting R143's on the . You don't want 8-car trains either, do you...? in the A div i would have 142's on every line, because they breakdown more often and that would mean more droped trips for me. theres nothing better than getting paid to watch tv. LOL Here's my list: R160/R44 R68/A (Same) R44 R68 (Same) R160 (Same) R46 R68 R160 (Same) R143 R160 (Same) R160 (same) R160 R46 Same for all R46 (which it will be after the SMEEs are retired) R160 (same) R160 Basically, the main change is making the R160s, with the leftover R44s. Because of this the would lose its R160s. I think the deserves them more, especially since it goes to JFK Airport and those passengers would benefit from the FIND. A Division would be the same, except the and the would swap fleets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanfortitude Posted August 17, 2009 Share #40 Posted August 17, 2009 Here's my list: R32/R46 R68/A & R160 R44 R68 R160/R46 R160 R160 R160 (Same) R143 R160 (Same) R68/R160 R160 Like whats running already Same for all R46 (which it will be after the SMEEs are retired) R160 (same) R160 Div A : R62/R142 : stay the same : R62A : I wouldn't dream of taking the 142s away from here : R62/A changes in red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRG Posted August 17, 2009 Share #41 Posted August 17, 2009 I'd give the R160s to the . I may not like the R160s but they'd do the line big justice over the crappy R44s IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdi919 Posted August 17, 2009 Share #42 Posted August 17, 2009 why does every one want 62's back on the 6 so bad? leave the 6 alone. the 7 is getting its own brand new fleet. thats why its being wired up for cbtc. also the 6 and 7 cant swap fleets because of the 11th car. 142's come in 5 car units. not singles.

R188s are going to be ordered as trailer ("B") cars. They'll be added to the R142A sets that will serve the . As for the R62As going back to the , that won't happen because riders will bicker; they like their NTTs. You'll probably see R62As appearing on the , meaning that the R142s/R142As on the right now will go to the . riders don't really care about what fleet they get anyway because it's always changed from time to time.
