You forgot something.

Actully the 42nd st shuttle uses R62A's not R62's. And on the RTO program sheet or whatever its called, still uses the for the rocaway park shuttle.

Are you sure that the programing is because i don't think they do.

Yes im sure. Im talking about when T/O's pick their line to work on the program sheet is called the .

But that's internal use, something the general public doesn't know. Better to leave it as the Rock Park Shuttle.

I used to regularly take the when I still had school but the uses 1651-1840 with the exception of a few sets. 1771-1775 used to have red stickers, and 1806-1810 used to have blue stickers but they have been Coronified.

 

On the , I have seen all of 1651-1810, 1811-1815, 1821-1825, and 1831-1840. I know for a fact that 1826-1830 are on the . I might have seen 1816-1820, but I can't remember. I'm pretty sure I did though.

The Rockaway Park Shuttle trains aren't just 4 car R44 sets. During the summer on weekends, its full length trains that run on the Rock Park Shuttle.

42nd Shuttle uses 5 cars iirc

 

E doesn't use "some" r46 there's only 1 R46 on the E, and i think that was a emergency put-in (hopefully)

[Pablo M 201]

42nd Street Shuttle is 3 cars.

I think the 42nd St shuttle uses two 3-car trains and one 4-car train, even though I've never been on it before (lol).

 

The R46 on the doesn't exist. Well it does, but it is not one train running on the line. 95% of the time there are no trains on the , but if something comes up (i.e. Switch problems at an terminal) and delays occur they will put it in service. Or, if rush hour service gets really demanding. The last time I got on it was between November and March of 2007. In fact that was the only time I got on it. I saw it three times before that, the third being back in 2001 after 9/11.

[B41]

The R142S is the same thing as R142A.

[7LineFan]

42 Street Shuttle: 3 or 4-car R62A trains. Definitely not 5.

 

R46 on : Why don't we just leave it as "rarely?"

 

R142S: Eighty cars, known as the R142S, were built by Kawasaki in 2003-04 to supplement the R142As. They are numbered as 7731-7810. The MTA considers the R142S to be R142A. (from Wikipedia)

i choose not to believe that the IS LATE MOST OF THE TIMES.

[Daniel The Cool]

there's only 244 more R40 Sets in all

[MattTrain]

uses the R-142S also

 

There's very few R142S cars on the . I wonder what the difference is between an R142A and an R142S? I haven't checked out the difference that much.

[Pablo M 201]

There isn't a difference. The R142S is just the R142A. R142S were extras the MTA ordered from Kawasaki.

[Trainmaster5]

That's correct. The GC shuttle fleet is two three car and one four car train of R 62A equipment.

[via White Plains Road]

there's very few r142s cars on the . I wonder what the difference is between an r142a and an r142s? I haven't checked out the difference that much.

 

r-142a 7211-7730
