Look at the last page (Page 282). This update was only for consists, not in service.

Ahhh, developing sightings: 4165-49 testing at Broad Channel

Pitkin Yard consist: Track #15: 4059-55x4049-45 & Track #16: 4044-40x4054-4050

More within the barn:

4140-44x4080-84 (just a newb pulling another newb from sick leave....yet to see service TBD)

4145-49 (was seen lasted with 4165-69)

4075-79 (was pulled with 4105-09 for two weeks; disconnected on 01/28/24)

4135-39 (broke up with its debut partner, nothing personal; on stand-by)

What I've seen in-service so far today:

4060-4069 (The OG keeping it strong for 6 months straight now; goes to show you that the prototype models are better than the production 'quality')

4099-95x4130-34 (Another case of a newb picking up a sick leave newb; as of 01/25/24)

4105-09x4094-90 (as of 01/29/24)

4100-04x4125-29 (as of 01/15/24)

4110-14x4120-24 (as of 01/25/24)

Schoolcar consists for today:

4070-74x4115-19 (was in service since 01/08/24)

Excuse the cringe commentary lol

So I'm guessing 4085-89 and 4195-99 still at CIY? My predictions will be 

4085-89x4075-79

4135-39x4195-99

For now at least

They are not paired up thou. Please, no more predictions until we can SEE the active consists running or actually SEEN connected. Said sets, can be paired with newbies not even accounted for yet.... Especially with the deliveries cookin' up and returning to some schedule. We've all seen the random patterns in these orders, new and old, SMEE and NTT.

They wanna keep 4060-4069 together until more 4200s & 4300s comes in.

Whatever.... Let's not gloss over the fact that the trucks under the prototypes are far more reliable than the faulty production sets.

Looks like these are going to be the 9 and 10  R211a sets that will be doing burning testing in February. The MTA really likes to mix these production car sets.

Still a little early to tell for sure. Both T-sets seem more likely to be ready than said sets mentioned before. Ironically....

It's really no different from the history of our veteran NTTs in terms of deliveries.

Got to ride a train of 41xx cars today (brain usually logs car numbers automatically, no clue what's up today lol).

Still lots of kinks to work out, but that's what happens when a new generation hits the rails. Digital ads were off and half the door lights were down.

Growing pains, growing pains, I feel you 211
