Pablo M 201 Posted July 4, 2008 Share #2 Posted July 4, 2008 Dunno, until the last Slant is there and whatever the MTA does with the R40Ms. R68/As are definate to run the (, but not entirely at the moment. Until then, its up in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7LineFan Posted July 4, 2008 Share #5 Posted July 4, 2008 Are the 40Mods sticking around? They seem to be in much better shape than the Slants.. I guess for a little while, until they are replaced by 160s... which would be within a couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metsfan Posted July 4, 2008 Share #6 Posted July 4, 2008 Are the 40Mods sticking around? They seem to be in much better shape than the Slants.. They are newer and in WAY better shape than the slants. There are newer slants also, you can tell the difference by the position of the vertical handgrips down the middle of the car. One type has them straight down the middle, and the other type has them off set to either side, this is because of the position of the HVAC system overhead. - Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they are sticking around, but not on the ( line though. When the (Q6) line's R68As start poping up on the then those R40Ms will get bumped to the and maybe lines.
