[@deadchannelmoved9328]

Those R-32s and 42s look great. :)

[@R32-DreamyNYC]

that C and J/Z swap did good

[@deadchannelmoved9328]

God I love those R-32s... Nice horns too. I hope they can stay around for a while longer so I can ride them and see them just once...

[@nycsubwayfollower3059]

Well they got replaced on the j line in 2019 by the r179

[@Chris-zs5qb]

[@thepacisback9889]

lucky you...I wasn't a 90s / 80s kid...meh.... fun fact: the way my parents took me home after i was born was by mta...and it was the train I take the least...,the L... I might not be a 90s / 80s kid but I have my first train memory!

at 4:20

[@theofficial1train]

I love the sounds to buddy

[@simonignatovsky8445]

Its said that the r42's and the r32's are still on this line. Its also sad that the mta still cannot get the r179's to replace the old, rusting, and aging rolling stock on the J, Z, A, and C lines.

[@TheMetroologist]

Simon Ignatovsky The R32's are coming off the C, and East New York seems to have a bunch of R42's lying around.

[@PinkLaffs]

Your videos have markedly improved and are a joy to watch.

Those old trains really used the same motors used on the R68/As.

[@trainkid4565]

I would love to see the R42’s on the R Line, and some R46’s on the J/Z. I mean c’mon the R46 needs fresh air! 🤷‍♀️

[@A278PlusPi-Legacy]

If you want to see the R46s on fresh air, you can take the A trains (and sometimes the F!)

[@darknekosan2091]

Its because of the A train the r46's need fresh air, Its the longest line, And from Grant Av Queens and 207th st Inwood terminal its all inside

[@trainkid4565]

Doesn't matter anymore, the R46sare off the R and on the N/W and select Q trains.

[@eblostique]

R46 can't run on the J/Z. The platforms aren't long enough and the curves are too tight

[@Persac7]

Far rockaway is fresh air

[@Bombardier2199]

[@DJHammersTrains]

United Airlines Fan United airlines There are surplus R143s so the J/Z is running a few.

[@metrorailfan2334]

+Alfredo Phillips he is a man

[@adammars1438]

Is it me or does the J line need 3rd rail replacement?

[@DJHammersTrains]

+ADAM MARS It's normal for the third rail to spark when it is raining.

[@oberwri1623]

Exactly so many sparks

[@adammars1438]

[@jeremyzorek]

[@DJHammersTrains]

[@DJHammersTrains]

+A.G. bonnie/Rios Cool!

[@agr804]

They are old the tracks are wet and they arent used to being on the elevated tracks unless its the J train

[@mzcat76]

What was that noise at 5:06

[@DJHammersTrains]

+Sharon Watkins It was from a truck below the tracks on the street.

[@iluvairlines]

That's my line! I'm glad it's the one with the most variety of fleet. As always, excellent video Dj Hammers!

[@steveember8972]

Love your use of tele-compressed perspective as trains enter curve. That can't be a subway horn at 5:17, can it? Pretty exciting arcing from the R32 train departing station at 5:46!

[@steveember8972]

@VERNONBLVJSCSONAVUNE On the 7 train and 6 train Of course - Thanks!

[@ThatMateoGuy]

R-32 Forever!

[@TrainLover-wt9ix]

This is probably the first video I’ve watched on DJ Hammers

[@larryrwendelljr4465]

Superb video coverage of all the EL and Subway trains DJ! :o)

[@DJHammersTrains]

+Larry R Wendell Jr Thank you so much!!!!

[@nellykourniatis3370]

I love trains

[@theofficial1train]

19:57

[@jaredwang7521]

The r143 (I think) at the beginning kinda sounds like a type 8 on Boston 's MBTA Green Line.

[@redphone1438]

Jared Wang I think it’s the same traction system. R143 J/Z trains are odd and not sure why there on the J/Z maybe they got tired on the L so they want to go to another line for a change.

[@yyyyuy4039]

R143 Z TRAIN!!!😲😲😲

[@classicrellz24]

Nice footage, DJ!! BTW, it takes real acceleration to knock that Tresspass sign back to its original position at 0:58!

[@edwin4362]

This happens every single time at several stations. Is it not normal?

[@DJHammersTrains]

+Edwin Martinez Vazquez It's just air forced by the train moving the sign. Not a big deal.

[@edwin4362]

Dj Hammers Right, that's why he confused me.

[@Bombardier2199]

the J and Z couldn't be perfect with out an R38

[@Anthony-ls6st]

Were the r143s meant for the (L) only? Just saying because of the strip maps inside the cars

[@TheRailLeaguer]

Anthony Initially They were, But can cover service on any line from East NY Yard if they please.

[@tytyty1469]

Nice Video!

[@DJHammersTrains]

+DiverT LightSwitch Thanks so much!!! I really appreciate it. Be sure to share the link with others so they can see it!

[@trevorwilliams9904]

I think the Mta could've given us buffs a mix consist of 32s/42s before they were retired. They did b4 I'm JS

[@theofficialr3298]

I love the R143 sound but as the 2nd Z was pulling in the R160 N outside my house ruined it

[@thepacisback9889]

+SoCraftSliders one thing is...no one complains about the ORIGINAL r142...not 142a...and literally all NYC trains that came before the r142-r143s had the same " increase pitch and loudness* propulsion.

[@alanramirez4606]

r143 sound like r142a/r188

[@Jstasko1402]

is the J/Z line mostly R32s?

[@DJHammersTrains]

+Phillip Thomasse It's around 80% R32s.

[@TheChicagoL]

+Dj Hammers I'm an outsider "looking in" so to speak because I don't live in NY, but it seems at one time that the Broadway/Nassau line had a lot more R160s with a few R42s in the mix. Why the shift to so many R32s and so few R160s?

[@DJHammersTrains]

+TheChicagoL The R32s were mostly moved to the J line so they can run outside. Their air conditioning units do better on the outdoor lines.

[@Jstasko1402]

wasn't that supposed to be for the summer only? or is it permanent now?

[@DJHammersTrains]

It is permanent until further notice, as it is too much of a hassle to keep swapping the cars back and forth when the seasons change.

[@franksanders9677]

At 5:05 was that the horn of a R32?? Because that sounds real nice

[@Flash_Warn1ng]

If there’s one thing I still don’t understand is what is Nassau st? I have never seen it at any stations ever and now J/Z say Jamaica Exp/Jamaica local so what and we’re is Nassau st?

[@delorean132]

Jamaica Nassau Brighton at 10:05. Nice catch!

[@d3mon_pixel]

I loved this when i was younger

[@darkitty12]

I looove chambers st station!

[@888jerm888]

All the cars on the R32 are married pairs, but there were a few mismatches. Here are a few: 3444-3777, 3445-3468, 3469-3592, 3548-3593, 3503-3600, 3502-3905, 3559-3904, 3617-3776, 3520-3891, 3383-3890, 3421-3558, 3420-3645, 3382-3831, etc. Ok, I know a few more, but that's enough.

[@crazyboutferrets]

Why do the Z trains make thst noisr

[@edellendegeneres1162]

So much arching happing on those tracks! Wow!

[@DJHammersTrains]

+Sal P Yup! Thats what happens when the third rail gets wet.

[@bryanandsamuelisfromthebro8917]

[@kenyanward9829]

Dj Hammers, are the R32's annoying sometimes when they screech to a brake?

[@DJHammersTrains]

+Kenyan Ward To some people they are, but it doesn't bother me too much.

[@888jerm888]

Only 222 of the 600 R32 cars are still running today. I rode on the J train back in December after Christmas 2017, and it consists of R42 cars. Only 50 of those cars are still running. I always like riding in the very first car so I can look ahead. Only the R32 and the R42 cars will enable you to look ahead, but you have to stand up for the whole ride. All other trains in operation have full width cabs meaning that chances of looking ahead from the first car are very SLIM.

[@MTA2train]

Wow

[@mediasaintfilms4654]

The R32's are Saturated along the J/Z lines. They also look better that the R42's. It seems like they dont up keep the R42's as much as the R32.

[@blainecountysherrif4542]

So why did the R32 honk?

[@copcitytransportrecordings9889]

rare R42!!!

[@dubreil07]

I was positive once the MTA got rid of the 9 train the Z train would get the ax next. But it looks like it's still running strong

[@bigjim6116]

wow a really like the spark ! !

[@joeeeeeeeeeeeey8888]

0:26 The R143 (Z) train was barrowed from the (L) Line

[@smrtc651productions]

do they run more days or nights.. the R-32 and r 40M

I like Z train because it runs skip-stop, express or local!

[@williamerazo1685]

i was wondering if people on the line even care about having rolling stock

Always stop except for rush hours

[@ousmanebah3062]

the z train is very loud.

[@dubreil07]

The J has a boring express run

[@vader97100]

Idk why when I was exploring Essex on Friday, a R160 Z train just popped up on the downtown track heading to Broad Street around 3:00, anyone know why?

[@DJHammersTrains]

+Chad M (CMShaddix) In the afternoon, Z trains start at Broadway Junction and run local to Broad St, where they start their Jamaica-bound express run.

[@vader97100]

+Dj Hammers oh ok, so it's actually really common to find a Z train

[@vader97100]

+Dj Hammers does that mean vice versa for the morning commute?

[@subwayfantx1608]

Oh, I forgot and the R38's!

Why the J/Z always the most dirty and runned down with stations?

[@DJHammersTrains]

+Chad M (CMShaddix) Not sure. There are some J/Z stations that are very nice and clean, like recently rebuild stations between Myrtle and Marcy Ave.

[@vader97100]

+Dj Hammers I would really have the Broad, Fulton, Chambers, Bowery, Canal and Essex stations redone, like fully replace the walls and ceilings and lighting. Chambers is the one that has an opportunity for an extreme makeover

[@Ramseylove]

nice great work
