Sometimes an R46 shows up on the (E).

 

When will the R40's be completely gone
The Slants are gone by summer's end. The R40Ms will be sticking around a while longer.

Who made the R40M? I was trying to find a pic of it on TTMG.

i've seen R46's on the E lately sadly, they are all ready to totally kill the E

 

the D does not use R40 Slants on a regular basis, the 40 Slants are only on the D when they need extra trains service

 

i've also seen 40 Slants on the Q but that was back in october, don't know if they still do that anymore

 

that R42 on the B i don't think its just one car

i know but R46's on the E are still bad even if it's just 1, there might be a 0.1% chance i might end up riding it
