MTA NYCT: On Board Ride on a South Ferry Bound R62 (1) Train from 66th Street to 42nd Street

Almost a year ago, 2 full consists of R62s made its way to the (1) line for what it seems like, a permanent stay. In addition, all rollsigns now say (1), some yard stickers, specifically 1497 iirc, now have 240th street yard stickers. (In R62/A terminology, Red is 240th Street (1) Yard, Orange is Livonia/Lenox (3) Yards, Green is Westchester (6) Yard, and Purple was Corona (7), but are now all Westchester due to the R62A/R142A swap on the (6) and (7) so that the Flushing line can be modified with CBTC. Those R142As were also modified into R188s.
Here’s one of those consists I rode on my way to school, filmed on Tuesday May 21st 2024.

The last time I ever rode an R62 (1) train was in November 2017.
