Only 8703-8712 are not delievered yet.And we don't know if the option order will be A1 or A2 (as far as I know). C lines can't run R46 unless they convert the rules into having a full car. And dude it's revenue not rail! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North-Eastern T/O Posted October 10, 2008 Share #5 Posted October 10, 2008 What do you mean " lines can't run R46 unless they convert the rules into having a full car." pleas explane what you mean. As far as I can see the line would do better with the R46's since they will be full 600ft trains, not the 480ft they run now. There will be no need to add a C/R broad since they will stop were a 10 car 60ft train will stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTR Admiralty Posted October 10, 2008 Share #8 Posted October 10, 2008 rail160A? woah. r stands for rapid transit (contract). there r non-revenue stock dat is listed under da r. east new york yard have enough rail160s. #9233 - #9592 should go to jamaica yard : so they could give away rail46 to A , C line i do agree dat sending them to jamaica is a good idea. coney island will hav 2 much of them if the option order A2's r sent there. im not so sure abt da R46s. the option orders should rid da system of all da remaining 32s, all slants and all 38s. wat will prolly happen IF da option orders arrive at jamaica will b, da r42s will be moved to pitkin 2 join da mods and the other r42s. dats only my opinion.

R32 3348 Posted October 10, 2008 Share #9 Posted October 10, 2008 The next Option order of R160As will be numbered 9233-9592. Right now they have delivered all of the R160A up to 8672 (or 8677). East New york isn't getting any R160As until the second option order, where they will get 64 R160As. At this point no one knows where the first option order of R160As is going, except that it will probably go to Coney Island or Jamaica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R32 3348 Posted October 11, 2008 Share #12 Posted October 11, 2008 No one knows where the Second Option order R160s are going, or the firsto ption order R160As. We'll find out where they'll go when they arrive and enter service. Also, they're R160As not Rail160As. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric B Posted October 12, 2008 Share #17 Posted October 12, 2008 He may have gotten it from this thread: http://www.nyctransitforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5418 I don't know where that person (Joseph Lee) got it from, but the information sounded genuine. (He's new and there's no information on him, but he could be an TA insider). It was 320 160A's and 584 160B's (64 for ENY). Assuming the B's would continue where the current order leaves off; it would go up to 9816. The A's would then have to go elsewhere in numbers, or be split between 9817-9999; and the remaining 138 continue elsewhere. Now, the person said that the A option order (for Jamaica) would be first. If they continue it where the current B order leaves off, it would go up to 9552, and the B order would have to go elsewhere. Also, R does stand for "rail" and not "revenue", as not all "R" types are revenue (all the miscellaneous equipment, etc). So the OP is technically correct.
