In other words, is there a possibility that those plans may be delayed until the r211's as a result of Canarsie shutdown not happening plus money issues? Well, that explains why the r46's went back to the A. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did, didn't they. You know where the 32s will be this summer? Barring a Fleet shift, on the C just like last summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your T/O friend is confirming this as fact, it's probably from a bulliten. Which all train Crews are responsible for reading. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
