Daniel The Cool Posted December 13, 2009 Share #1 Posted December 13, 2009 The R32s and R42s are retiring and I thought I give out tips. The Best stations to get those R32s based out of the 207th Street yard on the are W 190th Street only W 168th Street W 145th Street W 125th Street W 116th Street ( only W 59th Street-Columbus Circle W 42nd Street W 34th Street-Penn Station W 14th Street (Great photo op place). W 4th Street Canal Street Fulton Street And all Brooklyn and Queens stops. Now here's a the best stations to get an R32 off of Coney Island Yard. W 145th Street ( Atlantic Avenue Kings Highway Sheepshead Bay Brighton Beach And for the R32s based in the Jamaica Yard 71st Avenue Jackson Heights Queens Plaza. And as for the R42s in the East NY Yard I'll choose any stations. I hope this tip was useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattTrain Posted December 13, 2009 Share #2 Posted December 13, 2009 Thanks for the tips for catching those R32 and R42 trains. I would rather catch them as a surprise rather than running around the city just to ride these trains. :cool: Interesting stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRG Posted December 14, 2009 Share #9 Posted December 14, 2009 No need to tell me twice, I live along the train so I can ride R32s whenever I want!!! As for the R42s, I live 10 minutes away from Gates Avenue on the and so I can catch those whenever I want as well. I rode a set on Saturday.

Grand Concourse Posted December 18, 2009 Share #18 Posted December 18, 2009 If that happened, I'd do a backflip off my bed So long as Thompson doesn't replace him I'd rather pick the poison I know than the one I don't know about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are not enough AA pairs to make 6-car C trains. So yes the C will be a full 600' train at last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
