Forest Glen Posted January 30, 2010 Share #2 Posted January 30, 2010 I hardly see any R46's on the . At most, 25% of the is R46. The worst part is that I associate the R46 with the line. For a ten year period the was 100% R46. The R46 is my favorite car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S78 via Hylan Posted January 30, 2010 Share #3 Posted January 30, 2010 From what I noticed, more R46's run on the during weekdays than weekends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted January 30, 2010 Share #4 Posted January 30, 2010 If the V extension happens, the only line left [on QB] with R46s would be the R and once in a while the F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2 Train Master Posted January 30, 2010 Share #6 Posted January 30, 2010 I don't know how much 25% of the F is R46's but I know that there are about 3-8 sets on the =24-64 cars.But they run back to back they're not scattered about 2-3 sets run together(back2back) and the rest are like btwn 160's but not back2 back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32 3348 Posted January 30, 2010 Share #7 Posted January 30, 2010 The requires 45 trains for service (not including spares, which drives the number up to 50-51), of which ~37 are R160s and ~8 are R46s. Factoring in spares and trains being serviced, the number of R160s can be lower and the number of R46s can be higher. So the is between 15-20% R46.

traildriver Posted January 31, 2010 Share #11 Posted January 31, 2010 I believe the F line was mostly R46's with an occasional R32 during the period before the 160's came. During that time the E line was mostly R32's, with an occasional R38 and sometimes an R46. Just before the 160's took over the E line, there were 40 and 42's used.

error46146 Posted January 31, 2010 Share #12 Posted January 31, 2010 Never lol the F before the terrible R160 plague attacked was a mix of R46 and R32s..mostly R46 though so it might feel like its all R46 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattTrain Posted January 31, 2010 Share #13 Posted January 31, 2010 I see the trains as half R160A/B and half R46. I don't ride the as frequently. Probably more R160s are on the by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanfortitude Posted January 31, 2010 Share #14 Posted January 31, 2010 I definitely see a surge of 160s on the these days. It wont be long before they take over the completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ftrainfan Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share #15 Posted January 31, 2010 I see the trains as half R160A/B and half R46. I don't ride the as frequently. Probably more R160s are on the by now. Me too. Every time a R46 comes on the other side at my station , the R160 comes on my side. And vise versa. This is usually my pattern for taking the and daily as of late 2009... Monday- R160 to R46 Tuesday-R46 to R46 Wensday-R46 straight Thursday-R46 to R46 Friday- R160 to R46 So bascilly I usually take an R160 train on momdays and fridays and R46 (F)'s on tuesdays and thursdays. But that can change within time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nel070 Posted January 31, 2010 Share #16 Posted January 31, 2010 The was a 100 percent 46s between 1980-1991 before they rebuilt the 46s and then the ran some 32s along with the 46s. After the 46s were rebuilt the became 100 percent 46s between 1992-2001 except for a brief period in 1994, Then when the came into existence in 2001 the lost some 46s to the and become 46s with a few 32s mixed in.

INDman Posted February 1, 2010 Share #20 Posted February 1, 2010 Oh hey, so is any other subway line! MINDBLOWING isn't it? :eek: I'm saying that who cares how many of what car are on this, that, or the other line as long as you get where you need to go. Yea, it's nice to have a certain car on your favorite line, but it's much better to have a train thats shows up at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
