First Day of R211T (C) Train Operation!

R211Ts have finally entered service on the C line!
Today, February 1, 2024, the 1st set of the R211T, entered service along the C line from 168 St - Euclid Ave.
Consist: 4040-4044 & 4054-4050.
The open gangway cars are interesting and these trains have GREAT loud speakers.
Enjoy!

I just seriously just F***king knew you were gonna get this, Double brand new R211 trains pulling into the station at the same time you can’t finding nothing better than that right now !!!!

R211A meet R211T

[@ratuldeoun7228]

Best shot you can capture of the glimpse of the future of the NYC subway trains! 🙂

[@samuelitooooo]

I was hoping someone would capture a R211 A train next to a R211 C train. Thankfully this chance came straight to you and is at the very beginning of the video XD

[@FuseguyisCool]

Hahahahahaha you already know 🙌🙌

[@boatymcboatface18]

Remember that time the MTA spent 20+ years saying we couldn't have these trains in NYC because the NYC Subway was "unique" while all along they operated without any problems in cities like Paris and Rome.

[@tonyodoul5679]

Of course, because you all just accepted it. Hardly anybody gave a crap and complained. A few nerds maybe. Don't expect your government to do anything if you just sit back and take it. NYC should have a transit system like London or Paris, if more people went out there and complained and caused a fuss. Stop accepting shit.

[@SolidSnake-bt8eq]

The NYC transit system is made up of 3 different systems. So it took a while for the right train that can navigate through them. Actually only 2 are compatible the number system is much smaller.

[@TransitFans]

The kids are enjoying the R211T hoping to one car to another nice 👍

[@edwardrosemond7169]

New Train Alert! Nice!

[@Ambush6]

LETS F***KING GOO R211T C TRAIN

[@jst4572]

I’m going to ride this late at night so I can really walk through it.

[@TailsMilesFoxx]

DUDE EPIC!! Also your the first person to ever record the R211T operating on the C Line, and DOUBLE THE TRAINS??🚂

[@gtavstepfordcounty1733]

Wrong the news were the first to film it

[@ibrahimabah3693]

Now after making those new trains they really have to redesign their stations

[@Ibrahimthegoat8848]

Now the r211Ts are in service the R46 days are really numbered

[@Boeing747official-invasion]

I’m gonna ride R211T on the C line soon if my grandma let me Im already ride the R211A last year

[@coolkid7377]

Bruh this sh look so fireeeeee

[@aaronmohammed6998]

WOW

[@tuckthepuppy2517]

Yo this is legit? That’s fire 🔥😎

[@rxndomedits894]

Those Cars I wish they could be put on the N 😅😅

[@jermainevaughn2698]

I see a difference here you just said it’s packed, but in the other trains, when it’s packed, you can even get into the trains be honest at least this train is I think bigger I don’t know, and more people can spread out and go into different isles

[@FuseguyisCool]

Yeah that's true, but it works in blocks. Hoyt - Scherm to West 4th is going to be the most packed. After that it's kinda miniscule, but around 59th it may pick up again depending if Control puts a Bravo first

[@akiyl7479]

How does the conductor operate on the Ts?

[@FuseguyisCool]

They're fast closing for the most part...

Did he just cutout Rockaway and Ralph Avenue on the c line

[@FuseguyisCool]

Yes bc I feel like it 💀

[@alexthemtaandr211weatherfa2]

I didn't calculate that the r211t c train would get this full during rush hours

[@FuseguyisCool]

Well it is rush hour and every line is packed then.

[@johannainiguez719]

While N land Q line were new trains they put us the old R trains.

[@FuseguyisCool]

?

[@rxndomedits894]

Will it ever be on the n?

[@FuseguyisCool]

No, the N/Q/W will be stuck with the junk fleets for the longest while.

[@frankrosa9608]

Damn

[@aaronmohammed6998]

Joe is My FRIEND OK

[@daviano_R.T.]

Ay, Kawasaki train, I didn't know it was for the USA, or this is different model?

[@O530CarrisPT_C2]

Kawasaki has two factories in the U.S.: - One at Yonkers, New York. - Other at Lincoln, Nebraska, where much of the train is built.

[@FuseguyisCool]

Yes this is a Kawasaki train with production in upstate N.Y.

[@O530CarrisPT_C2]

@@FuseguyisCool Oh. I thought it was built in Nebraska with final assembly at their Yonkers plant.

[@DUHTRANSITGUY]

WWW VIDD ESPECIALLY THE BEGINNING

[@DJXcalibur]

Why put them on the C line though?! The E or A line could have used the R211T much more! Those lines are usually the ones overfilled during rush hour. It’s just a waste on the C line as that train rarely ever gets full🤷🏾‍♂️

[@CLBT7437]

The R211T's aren't allowed to run passenger express service.

[@DJXcalibur]

@@CLBT7437 aren’t allowed is fine. That still doesn’t mean they can not. All the excuses of they are too big is crap. It’s all because of the stupid rule of checking every car if the brakes are engage. They need to hurry and revise that. Let these trains run on a line that desperately requires them. Not on a line that they will basically go totally to waste!

[@CLBT7437]

@DJXcalibur They won't go to waste on the C line. Pitkin Yard needs to retire their R46s, and this is part of that process.

[@DJXcalibur]

@@CLBT7437 clearly what I said went way over your head. I tried

[@CLBT7437]

@DJXcalibur No, it didn't. You said that they need to revise the emergency brake issue on the open gangway, which they can't do. I said that those cars would be fine on the C since the priority is R46 retirement.

[@aaronmohammed6998]

MTA SERVICE BUSES MTA OK

[@thomasabramson100]

When are the coming to the "F" line??

[@CLBT7437]

The F doesn't need R211's

[@FuseguyisCool]

Jamaica Yard is keeping their R160s.
