[tramrunner 0]

As I see, there is a lot of R160ies on M line.

Looks like the M line gets the newest R160ies

(i rode 8447, 8427) and sometime saw 8481 in a 5-car composition

 

Will be interesting to know, where will be R42s placed?

All of the M line's R42s will be sent to the A line. So far several sets have been sent over there.

I rode that set the day it came out of testing. Was junk like the rest of the fleet.

You did not see 8481 in a 5 car unit trust me..

 

The R160A's 4 car units go up to 8651...

 

8652 is the start of the 5 car units..

R160A 8653 is the first of the five car unit R160As.

R160A 8653 is the first of the five car unit R160As.

 

It was my South Motor Yesterday on my last trip on the (N)ovember..

 

The doors sound very different on that unit and open a bit slower than the rest of the R160A's..
