Around the Horn Posted April 4, 2019 Share #228 Posted April 4, 2019 I believe those were cars marked with the blue diamonds to replace the R32s on the before the R44s were prematurely retired and the remaining R32s stayed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the final assignments should hopefully be like this: : 6301-6720 (42 trains) (shared with ) : 6721-7130 (41 trains) (shared with ) : 7131-7180, 1101-1250 (20 trains) (including R142As 7591-7810, total trains goes up to 42) This would provide better and train service, and overall better service on the Lex and 7th Avenue lines.

It will be six R32's on the from what I heard. They're only moving six R46's to Jamaica as I predicted while the rest stays to increase spare factor. I think Jamaica would give up 2-3 R160's to Coney to bump out the R68's that concourse lost 2 years ago. But so far no R160 has left. There's an R42 set in CIY as well.

Lance Posted June 1, 2019 Share #247 Posted June 1, 2019 We have the first official update to the car assignments since November. Here are the highlights and as always, remember the cars assigned to a line may not necessarily reflect what's operating in service at any given time. The 32s are now split almost evenly between the and lines. The 42s are presently not assigned to any line. service is being run by means of the 160s and 179s according to the latest assignments. What that means for the 42s' continued operation is unclear at the moment. The random 46s previously assigned to the have been shifted to other lines, as have the 160s, but everyone knows about that one. On the A-side, the only major change is a slight increase in the number of trains required for the line.
