Mm...there's also 

4135 39, you don't gotta use a slash

Same difference either way, it's on just one consist for normal production/A type cars when it should be across all R211's regardless of what consist or kind of car it is.

the wayfinding signage is supposed to be on the "A"s as well, and I have seen it active on 4135/59

Correct me if I am wrong but both of the r211Ts consist of pilot sets?

No, the pilots were the first 10 211As. The Ts are prototypes specifically for testing open gangway configurations. Everything else on the train is pretty much proven.

Yeah some conquestors apparently broke into the back cab of one of them and changed it to an L program (it got taken out of service).

4055-59 got changed to the L to 'Last stop' 8 Av- 14 St. The set got taken out of service (with 4045-49) at West 4 St, then took a trip to the yard. Hopefully it will come back to service tomorrow. Maybe it's in service today.

If not mentioned, the R211s on the (A) , also as the R211As for the rest of their units will follow the features on what the T's have on their maps and car positions. 

 

 

It’ll be removed again for no reason, it’s only on one time and never again to be seen

UPDATE ON THE R211S AS OF 2/6/24

R211s in service

R211A: 60 cars, or 6 10-car trains (technically 80 if it weren't for all those issues), all trains currently run on the (A) line

4060-69, pilot, definitely needs to get washed

4070-74, 4115-19

4075-79, 4090-94

4095-99, 4130-34

4100-04, 4120-24

4110-14, 4125-29

R211T: 20 cars, or 2 10-car trains, all trains currently run on the (C) line

4040-44, 4050-54

4045-49, 4055-59

Total amount of R211s in service: 100 technically, 80 currently

All are at pitkin

Other consists not in service yet and TBD sets

R211A:

4080-84, 4140-44

4145-49, 4165-69, soon to enter service, BIT'd on 2/4

4085-89, still OOS; getting fixed

4105-09, other set TBD

4135-39, other set TBD

4150-54, other set TBD

4155-59, other set TBD

4160-64, other set TBD

4190-94, other set TBD

4195-99, other set TBD

R211S:

100-104

Total amount of R211s not in service: 40 technically, 60 currently (not counting the R211S), 45 technically, 65 currently (counting the R211S)

Notes: 4085-89 is still getting fixed unless otherwise. 4080-84 went into service on 8/17/23, but because of flat wheels, gearbox issues and then more cars from CIY after the issues, it paired up with 4140-44. 4135-39 went into service with 4130-34 in October (don't remember exact date), but 4130-34 left with 4095-99. So as of now, it's new set to pair up with is TBD, which is also why 4105-09 is TBD because it was paired with 4095-99.

There are a total of 100 cars in service (4040-4139) technically, but let's see what 4080-84, 4085-89, 4105-09, and 4135-39 are up to after the gearbox, flat wheel issues, and other sets replacing them. So right now, there's only 80 cars, ranging from 4040-4079, 4090-4104, and 4110-4134.

R211Ss do not connect with each other, they stay 5-car sets because it's Staten Island. They might switch them up, Ex. 170-126-147-103-169 but that would be stupid as it's fine being like this. Ex. 100-101-102-103-104

R211 Deliveries

R211A: 4060-4169, 4190-99, 120 cars or 12 10-car sets; 4150-64, 4190-99 at CIY; rest of cars at Pitkin

R211T: 4040-4059, 20 cars or 2 10-car sets; all at Pitkin

R211S: 100-104, 1 5-car set; set at Clifton; will hopefully see service next month

Total number of cars delivered: 145

Notes: Not much, just that there are many more to come, numbered 110-174, 4170-4189, 4200-4499, and more numbers TBD for the Option Order cars.

R211s confirmed as built

So, besides the ones that are already delivered to the city, here are the other ones that are confirmed as built.

R211A: 4170-4189, 4200-4234, 55 cars or 5 10-car sets and 1 5-car set; All at Lincoln, NE at the Kawasaki plant

R211S: 105-109, 5 cars or 1 5-car set; At Kawasaki Yonkers plant in Yonkers, NY, north of The Bronx; All remaining R211Ss will most likely get delivered to Clifton, not SBK

Total cars built and not delivered: 65 

Notes: There's probably more cars built, but so far, we got these guys.

Add that up with the delivered cars and you get...

175 R211As (4060-4234); 265 under construction + 640 from Option Order I

20 R211Ts (4040-4059); completed

10 R211Ss (100-109); 65 under construction

205 R211s in total, still... (100-109, 4040-4234)

And Many 44s and 46s to be replaced...May y'all rest in peace...starting soon...

Notes: And Option Order II is still up for grabs between the As and Ts. We don't even know how many cars are in the order. It's either 333 or 437 cars, some 5 and 4-car sets. This will get revealed after the Ts receive some feedback on their features, and themselves in general, that way we know. It will take until maybe 2025 to see what's gonna go on.

I did it again because like, there's so many updates for like no reason. Hope you like this!

Just curious, Is there proof of this? Because most of what i've been hearing is that its a glitch.

Also if conquesters really did change it, then shouldn't the entire train be signed as (L) last stop? Iirc it was only 4055-9 signed as (L), while 4045-9 was signed correctly.

It pulled into Euclid Avenue like that yesterday at 3:20 p.m. and got OOS'd at W 4 Street, to be sent to 207th. There was NO signs of force against the backdoor at all! It was a signage malfunction, officially.
