Given that I live in Paris since my birth, it is true that the R160s, regardless of Alstom or Siemens, were a real nostalgia, whether they were aesthetic or even technical (more fluid and efficient than the R46 or 68). Seeing them again on the N, Q and W lines is really satisfying in any case they will be passing through again in addition to the R211s which will make their massive appearance (like on the A and C currently).

Nice catch! Really cool that its still possible to catch a 160 N train in 2024. Miss these lines, the Siemens N, Q, and W trains were my favorites in the entire system and its sad to see them go

I had caught the Siemens R160 on the E, F, G, Q, and R lines, but I wish I was there with my Dad so I could had caught the Siemens R160 on the N line and I could have had my 1st Video of the N line.

I saw this train randomly pull in to coney island at the same time an R160 Q train was there too. that was a crazy out of nowhere catch

Likely gonna see more R160 sightings on the N/W since those R46s are running like crap. I’ve noticed that it happens mainly on the 8:07AM trip from Astoria-Ditmars Blvd (if it’s put in on the N) and the 8:33AM from Astoria if will run on the W train.

I hope maybe when the r46s retire maybe a little come back to the n,q,w. The r211 is going to replace the r46s

Looks to me that N line will be having 1 set of R160 for rush over just like the Q and W. Which means that by 2025 we will be seeing more R160s at CI yards due to the R211s.

Considering that all 5 car R160's are assigned to the E, F, G and R for CBTC on QBL, Culver, Crosstown, 6th and 8th Avenues, I don't see R160's going back to the N/W or Q unless the G goes back to Coney Island Yard.
