The 4 is gonna get more R142s from the 2/5 line! And the 2/5 line will get the R62as from the 6 line! But not all the R142s on the 2/5 line will be gone to the 4 or 6! The 2/5 will give some of the R142s to the 6 and 4! Can someone explain why this would be logical, as this would do nothing to increase service on the / , , and , but rather reduce service on the lines and create delays on the / at Flatbush Avenue to switch signs where none currently exists?

I agree. I bet that none of these YouTubers have ever been on the and lines along Nostrand Avenue, nor do they even know how the / operations work. With the operations of the and at Flatbush Avenue due to all of the constant sign switching (which I have seen personally since I take that route coming home from college classes in Downtown Brooklyn during the Fall and Spring Semesters) that routinely occurs there, there is no way that those two lines are getting R62As from their rightful place on the line. And the fact that the MTA is adding two extra trains during rush hours in April (source: http://web.mta.info/mta/news/books/pdf/180924_1030_Transit.pdf, page 293-297) doesn't even warrant a large scale swap like that they mention. And by the way, do you think the will have enough cars to implement the much-needed April service increases without negatively impacting the spare factor? And when will they add extra cars to the / and lines to increase Brooklyn IRT service? I feel like playing the waiting game at Borough Hall and Franklin Avenue after my evening class lets out at 8:30PM. Just asking. 27 minutes ago, trainfan22 said: Come on mayne you really taking a post from a kid railfanner on YouTube as a credible source!?😆 Some of these kid railfanners on YouTube claim that their information comes from the MTA. That is the main problem. Not to mention that these are the same young people who are complaining about the R142As leaving the line, causing a "degradation" of service, when in fact, they are doing this to increase service on the and lines to end situations where people are left on super-crowded platforms because trains are too full to board.
