Good to see the 6 train r142a back

[@GabysCake]

The r142a 6 is back baby

[@Bklynkid52]

Nice! Only one 5 train? I guess that's what happens when they unnecessarily run every 20 minutes.

[@AndersonMazaGamingBoy]

They said 4&6 are going on express but doesn’t the 4 usually go on the express🤨

[@OrangeDaFruit]

R142a 6 trains is back! Btw railfan (1) (2) (3) at 34 St Penn Station

[@ItsDuckToYou]

I’m getting flashbacks when R142A 6 was in service :(

[@MTASubwayKindle]

fact bro, Now R62/A's Covered the job R142/A on the ^ line we're my specialty. Now theres barely on service. The new R262's will remind us how good R62/A's and R142/A we're good rolling stock for pelham.

⁠​⁠@@MTASubwayKindleI once heard that Westchester Yard wasn’t taking good care of the R62A’s. Same story with Jerome and their R142s.

14st is the next south ferry

[@5trainfarmington587]

Why do (5) Trains only run every 20 minutes?

[@Bklynkid52]

Because 4, 5, and 6 trains are sharing the express tracks. But that's BS. 5 trains could continue to run under regular intervals.

why did 6 train go on express track

If you read the description you will know why

[@Phineascharles10]

Track maintenance on the local track so everything heading downtown had to run express from 42nd to Brooklyn bridge

@@Bklynkid52 The R142as will be back on the Pelham line when the brand new R262/as comes for Cbtcs to replacing all the R62/as real soon. For now we have to deal with the R62as on the Pelham and the R62s on the Broadway 3 line and the R62as on the Broadway 1 line and the Shuttle trains to which is now are using 6 car. Units or 4 car units. Once in a while the R142as will pop up on the Pelham line on and off sometimes during the week days not all the time .
