10 Car R-32 Consist spotted on the A

[speedyracer90 6]

For the first time since early 2008, I've spotted a full R-32 train. I spotted it headed down to the Rockaways when I was on an uptown from Lefferts.

[R44 5278 0]

I'm guessing that some more R38s had been retired.

[MTR Admiralty 4]

Not surprising nowadays. The R38s are disappearing fast.

[FlushingExpress 2]

yay, nice to see that on the . i might just resume riding that line.

[ducman998r 0]

yeah.. the entire fleet of r32s from jamaica has made its way to 207 for the A/C I think theres only about a dozen or so r38s left. Give or take. 10 car sets of r32s on the A are going to be frequent. Sucks cuz these cars are really in horrible condition.

Not really, I caught a few R32s running on the F the past three days. Unless you are telling me that the F is now based out of Pitkin/207 and not Jamaica Yard.

now you know why you cannot believe that guy. most of the R32s left in Jamaica run on the instead of the now. all R40M/42s are on the once elegant line and occasionally the .

I have still yet to see any r42 r trains..

There are still a few r32 e and r trains out there just not that much

 

I can still remember when the e was all r32, that was not too long ago

[MattTrain 3,120]

R32 trains don't surprise me that much, it's good that the R32's don't intermix the R38 cars that often anymore.

[R32 3348 11]

It's because there's hardly any R38 to intermix with nowadays. I think there's only 50 in regular service now. The rest are OOS, awaiting the reef.

[R32 3348 11]

Are you kidding me? You didn't ride the JUST BECAUSE you didn't like the cars it used? It won't kill you to ride the "ugly soda can" you call the R44 you know.

[MattTrain 3,120]

R32 Bright liners may not come around by 2010, so catch one on the if you can, before they're history, then the R44, and maybe, just guessing R68 and R160A/B may show up there.

[R32 3348 11]

R160s are not going on the , and neither is the R44 leaving.

I never said I believe the guy a 100% percent.

There's still a bunch of R32s based out of Jam. Yard.

The numbers are:

3354-3357, 3360-3361, 3370-3371, 3374-3377, 3383-3385, 3388-3890, 3394-3397, 3400-3401, 3412-3417, 3424-3429, 3434-3441, 3444-3445, 3460-3461, 3464-3465, 3468-3469, 3471-3473, 3476-3477, 3492-3493, 3496-3497, 3500-3501, 3504-3505, 3510-3511, 3520, 3522-3523, 3538-3539, 3574-3575, 3590-3592, 3606-3607, 3610-3611, 3621, 3634-3635, 3644, 3650, 3658, 3662-3663, 3672-3673, 3676-3677, 3682-3683, 3690-3691, 3698-3699, 3704-3709, 3718-3721, 3726-3729, 3732-3733, 3738-3739, 3742-3743, 3746-3747, 3750-3751, 3756-3757, 3767, 3770-3775, 3777, 3782-3785, 3794-3797, 3804-3805, 3820-3821, 3834-3835, 3868-3873, 3876-3877, 3891, 3912-3913, 3922-3923, 3928-3929, 3932-3933

With that data sheet there's only 120 R32 cars left for the and to use, I mean the lines based on Jamaica.

I have doubts about the A receiving R160s. The supposed third option order is still a rumour. There are many theories as to which cars will run on the A and C after all the SMEEs retire, some say the R46s will go there, some say the hippos and others believe that they should run R160s. As of now, it's too early for me to agree on any theory, however, I do believe that the R179s will be run on the A and that they will fully replace the R44s in the next decade.

Definitely the F.

This is a good list, although from last month. It doesn't mention the R160A's (five car sets) on the and , just on the and

 

Only 80 R40 Modifieds are running, wow, only on the and .

 

The and the only use R32's but the has some as well.

Yes we know the A has some R32s, especially just by inferring from the title of this thread.

Joe needs to update the thing regularly though.

not joking, i do my best to avoid the R42s and R44s, though it does not always work. whenever i rode on the last year, i always waited for an R32/38 and when they disappeared from that line, i avoided the all together. now i ride the more often because it uses my favorite cars. when the R42s entered service on the , i always waited for an R32. now i avoid that line entirely, though i get more of those good-looking R32s on the .

the joekorner datasheet is outdated. R32s still occasionally appear on the .

Wow, come on, avoiding a line altogether just because your favourite cars are no longer on that line, come on, act like a normal subway rider.
