So a woman can’t drive trains ? 🤨

[@enochbengabrieljihadshabaz6654]

They very much resemble the R42s, R44s, R46s, R68s bodywise but the propulsion is the same as the R160s, R179s they are good durable cars that easy to bound with plenty of room with a smooth ride for the fellow Melanite brother here just rode on the R211A test train along the IND 8th Avenue was very impressive that he photographed the interior plus the stainless steel which had been a MTA motif so admiration appreciation here😊😊😊😊

[@mrkeyz321]

They said on the news that they will be testing the new R211 for a month during regular service on the A line only! If all goes well, they'll add on more R211s on different lines! Welp I guess the A train passed its test for other lines to share in such glory!!! Although this video may be a "testing" video, it still confirms the A train did its job! Thanks A train!!! And I don't mean the wrestler lol😅😅

[@blue9multimediagroup]

They can do 55. All of them can.

[@brownhornet1975]

@@blue9multimediagroup They can… but do they have enough space to? No. So you get the speed that I can get to. 53. And that was only one time.

[@MTM358]

They can, but they don't often reach it. I think they're certified for like 75. The Chicago subway often hits 55 in some sections.

The Propultion Sounds extremly similar to the Kawaski R160s

[@Lodai974]

This is the Alstom OptoniX inverter control system. It can be found on other metros with slight variations (Hong Kong,Sydney , soon Paris,etc....) The modulation is indeed close to that of Siemens Sitrac

[@SupaEMT134]

Pardon me. Why is the graphic for the B line flashing??

[@ItzMiKeKirbY]

It has to do with the way film photography technology works. I can’t really give specifics as it’s been ages since I last educated myself on the subject but when viewed with your own eyes it wouldn’t look like that.

[@logical.01]

The refresh rate on the LED’s are too fast for the camera to register smoothly, so it looks like it’s flashing (but in reality, it’s just orange)

[@TwanK1]

The 211 Ts Should Be In Service Ina Month Or 2..God I Miss The R32s lol But The 211s Look Dope Tho

[@chicago-l9125]

Question: Does anyone have even a "ballpark" idea which lines will receive assignment of the R211Ts once they're approved for revenue service?

[@logical.01]

Supposedly, they'll be on the E/F/R (Jamaica yard) lines. Not too sure.

[@zakitransitguytv]

I thought the r211t couodn't run express

It is only restricted from some express portions, and this was before it entered revenue service.

So r211t is an test train

[@davidgianna]

The lead truck on the “A” car is not a motor truck? Or is the “A” car a trailer car on the R211T?

[@logical.01]

No clue, but the propulsion sounds real quiet on 4045…

[@JonathanChan212]

Well, if R211T is like that, that means R211A is also like that. Ain't no way MTA would do R211 like that, especially that would've been costly for having two different platforms for the motors

[@logical.01]

@@JonathanChan212 mmmm, yeah probably

[@blue9multimediagroup]

How do you figure it's not a motor truck?

[@Lodai974]

Probably the motor car are in center of the trainset.... T-M-M-M-T for a trainset (Trailer - Motor car) The underbody equipment identifies where the inverters are which are usually on motorized cars.

[@AIRdomination]

Why are the Q Trains labeled (S) in various colors?

Oh yes, forgot to mention- Q trains were running in 2 sections. This section was a shuttle along the Brighton line!
