Neil Feldman Posted February 8, 2010 Share #26 Posted February 8, 2010 R160A2 for the W, R160B for the N, R68A for the B, and R68 for the Q with an occasional R68A! You have about 60 R160A2 for Coney Island, so all can go to the W with maybe 7 R160B with Alstrom Onix Propulsion to fulfill the W's 13 TPH, and the Reast to the N. Q needs 19 TPH, so if there isn't enough R68, then a couple of R68A can come from the B to fulfill the Q's TPH's. Not for nothing, but I hate the mixing up of consists per each line now with the R160 fleet now coming into place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S78 via Hylan Posted March 12, 2010 Share #32 Posted March 12, 2010 I love all three. I love riding the Q Train for its variety. Same here. Only one type of subway car running on a line kinda makes the ride a little boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattTrain Posted March 13, 2010 Share #34 Posted March 13, 2010 With the rest of the option 2 order of R160A and R160B going to Jamaica and East New York, it ensures that the will have R68 and R68A running for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S78 via Hylan Posted March 19, 2010 Share #37 Posted March 19, 2010 Now these days, almost all of the lines are using only one subway car type or two that look very similar like the R44/46, ( R68/68A and R143/R160, R142/R142A. The has to stay diverse the way it is now. I also enjoy riding R68A and R160 on the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
