jon2305 Posted February 6, 2016 Share #6187 Posted February 6, 2016 What's the last R142A to be converted? R142A 7581-7590 should be the last 10-car train to be converted at Kawasaki. That will be happening pretty soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tech And Transit Posted February 6, 2016 Share #6191 Posted February 6, 2016 So they've finally coupled together the converts & factory sets? Yes, they have. Here's a video I took (skip to 4:25 when I switch from 7881 to 7486) it happened before with 7838 with 7485 IIRC Really? I saw 7833-43 recently and they were together. 7485 was with 7446 last time I saw it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Javier Posted February 7, 2016 Share #6193 Posted February 7, 2016 In case anyone's interested, 7811 is really having some major programming issues. It keeps thinking its a to Queensboro Plaza when the rest of the set is programmed to the to Mets - Willets Point. When the rest of the set is programmed to the to 111 St, 7811 thinks it's a to Brooklyn Bridge. This car is out of control 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Javier Posted February 9, 2016 Share #6197 Posted February 9, 2016 (edited) Ok I know this a stupid ass question and I know I'm suppose to be the tech guy here, but I'm still confused about how the R188's function and are converted. R188's are paired like this, correct? A-C-B-B-B-A+A-B-B-B-A So let's take the set 7776-7785 (hypothetically since it isn't getting converted.)and break it down. Every car is uncoupled and converted into their R188 counter part, except for the B car's. Then a C car is inserted between 7776 and 7777 to make a 11 car train, correct? The main reason why a C car is added is to add an additional car to make a 11 car set and because C cars are needed to have CBTC operations, correct?

T J Trainman Posted February 9, 2016 Share #6198 Posted February 9, 2016 No the C car would be inserted between 7779 and 7780. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
