Actually, that pic was taken back in the earlier 2010s. Not recent.

Yes, but they didn't need the singles for the (7) anymore so (MTA) gave it to the (S) train

So the single units LED R62A are still running today and later on the (S) train.

Not unless it was actually seen recently, those cars may not reach the (S) and instead be used as work cars. Edited by ShadeJay

Those are codebreaks. Every train has the ability to display every sign. That does not mean that they actually ran.

Actually, there was this construction where the (4) train operated in two sections but instead of the R142 be signed as a (4) train, it was signed as a (S) train but layed somewhere between 149 Street GC or Burnside Avenue to Woodlawn. Remeber when the first or second section short in this case only the Bronx, the trains are almost like shuttles.

The R62A's are scheduled to be replaced and some scrapped in 2023. The leftovers are going to be for work cars. So the single units R62A LED are used for the (S).

No they are codebreaks. The (4) has its own "shuttle" codes for when they only run a certain section.

The 42 St (S) has its own dedicated fleet of 20 singles to make service. Completely separate from the (7) fleet and it's remaining singles.

Wait, which sets are going to be used for work service?

Who says they being used for work service when they still have at least a decade of regular passenger service left?

Categorically false.

That's Westchester Yard (possibly Corona, idk). You can make any NTT say any line (division permitting) because they have the programs for any line. Just because you're posting a picture of it saying something, doesn't mean it actually ran in service.

That's the test code for the R142/R142A/R188. The route part would count 0-9, and the destination part would say "SDS VISUAL TEST" and flash other things. Edited by Turtle

Thats the SDS visual test. It runs through all the numbers and all the shapes. There's a video of it somewhere. That's a regular service (6) train.

Darn it, though you were gonna fall for it.But the R142A's 1 train actually is real.

Some are not. But the (1) did run in rare occasions in the R142's same as the (3)

No it's not. The (4) operated between 125 Street to New Lots Avenue and from 149 Street GC to Woodlawn

Yes but they were not programmed as an (S). They were still the (4). That's like saying the late night (5)(M) and (R) are actually (S).

 

Still think they still use the (S) code for the (4)?

Dude search it up. In some rare occasions like for example, say the (2) is rerouted via the (1) or (3) line, the operator has the option to switch to the rerouted line it's running as an example it can turn into a (1) or (3) train.

We all know that there are some emergencies causing the R142 (2) to become a (1) and (3). What we are trying to say is that they are not for regular service on the (1) and (3). Edited by ShadeJay

I know about it already. I've seen it already.

 

Once again, enough of it, we get it. Most of us seen it already.
