GojiMet86 Posted September 24, 2011 Share #4 Posted September 24, 2011 I've heard of UNIQLO before, but I've never heard of it on the outside of an R160. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted September 24, 2011 Share #5 Posted September 24, 2011 Are they like 'stripe ads' that are on some IRT cars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R44 CNG Posted September 24, 2011 Author Share #6 Posted September 24, 2011 Are they like 'stripe ads' that are on some IRT cars? Yes just like this photo below...except a little lower on the R160 car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric B Posted September 24, 2011 Share #7 Posted September 24, 2011 Still wonder if they're ever going to do the 46's like that. (With that blue Monroe ad, it would be just like the original appearance!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtNovaBusRTS9369 Posted September 24, 2011 Share #8 Posted September 24, 2011 I aw ads like this too yesterday on the R160. I think it has something to do with (MTA)'s going increasing in advertising (not talking about ads form inside their buses & trains) but from the outside of their equipment.

Dave160 Posted September 25, 2011 Share #9 Posted September 25, 2011 Saw this set today going the opposite way as I was getting off the train at Bay Parkway. It was a matter of time before they started this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R68 Subway Car Posted September 26, 2011 Share #10 Posted September 26, 2011 Interesting. Cannot wait to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brighton Local Posted September 26, 2011 Share #11 Posted September 26, 2011 Still wonder if they're ever going to do the 46's like that. (With that blue Monroe ad, it would be just like the original appearance!) That would be awesome! I miss the 46s and (well-now-OOS 44s) with the Blue Stripe.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OA Pest Posted September 26, 2011 Share #12 Posted September 26, 2011 Let the MTA generate as much revenue as they can. Their merchandise could use a GOH. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric B Posted September 26, 2011 Share #13 Posted September 26, 2011 So I've now seen these for the first time. The strip is usually all the way on the bottom, as to clear the external speakers. On one set I saw, it was a little bit higher, so that they had to cut out a round piece to fit around the speaker. That would be awesome! I miss the 46s and (well-now-OOS 44s) with the Blue Stripe.:cool:That would have been the perfect fix for the ugly gray band, but instead, they had tested on those some ad that covered an entire window (it was one of those see-through mesh wraps). Didn't even look right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MTA Bus Posted September 26, 2011 Share #14 Posted September 26, 2011 Today, I rode it on the . 6 cars of the train have the ads. The numbers are 9321, 9320, 9319, 9211, 9210, and 9209. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngblaze Posted September 26, 2011 Share #15 Posted September 26, 2011 I wonder what took them so long to start doing this. This could generate quite a few bucks for the TA. Heck, they should even consider doing complete wraps identical to those done on the GCT shuttle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenEleven Posted September 26, 2011 Share #16 Posted September 26, 2011 The ads in question. They're on at least 2 of the R160 sets: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R44 CNG Posted September 26, 2011 Author Share #20 Posted September 26, 2011 Awesome Catch! Doesn't look bad at all!!! IMO It doesn't look bad because UNIQLO ad is simple (red & black text with white background) :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubwayRat1978 Posted September 27, 2011 Share #23 Posted September 27, 2011 I saw that this morning as I rode the to 7 Ave - it looks a little like what they're doing the same thing with the R160s as they're doing with the LIRR M7s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
