Fan Railer Posted January 20, 2012 Share #6 Posted January 20, 2012 The 6 car set will not be a 6 car set until the brand new C car is manufactured and inserted, which isn't scheduled to happen for some time. Nice catches by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Posted January 21, 2012 Share #22 Posted January 21, 2012 Nice catch, I saw that the other day at Pitkin yard. Where's the 6th car? The 6th Car (R-188 #7921) was delivered to 207th Street on Jan 2nd and was transferred to Corona, more than likely inside the barn. R-188 Car #7921 will be wedged in between between R-142A/R-188 Conversion B-car #7219 and A-car #7220 reportedly making the 11 car consist 7211-7212-7213-7214-7215/7216-7217-7218-7219-7921-7220.

mark1447 Posted January 22, 2012 Share #25 Posted January 22, 2012 Will R188s sound like the R142As? And have similar strip maps? From what i heard, they will be using Bombs propulsion noise, just like the R142A. And yes strip maps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
