1 thing I forgot to add in this video was the difference in the cabs. The R142A has 1 screen on it’s control panel & R188 has 2 screen on its control panel.

[@InactiveuntilJuly29]

Do the difference between the R211A/T/S

[@nojeansv]

@@InactiveuntilJuly29 they same but differnt i guess

[@WilsonFromBrooklyn]

You don’t take random friend requests unless you know anyone?

[@datraingoat3777]

Okay.

[@noahnorman6877]

Another difference you forgot was the door chimes. The R142As use the older, sharper sounding chime sound found on the R142 and R179. The R188s, both the new and conversions use the newer more muffled sounding chime found on the R143, R160 and R211.

i loved that videos music too, i always hum it lol

[@EastCoastTransit]

I always knew the trains were very different from each other, but I learned some things that only the most astute of people would notice, thank you!

[@onieltransit_]

It's mad easy to tell.

[@Bve542]

Same here and who remembers R142A 7320

[@IoannisPafos]

I did know the R142A and R188 were different. I did know the R188 had a box in an A car, but I wanted to find videos that compared them but didn't. So glad you covered this.

[@davidng2336]

Really happy that a difference video between these two finally exist. Thanks so much for this!

[@maybeargy]

Glad someone made a video about this topic, Thanks.

[@nyctmtakid8358]

It's about time someone addresses this. I be seeing R188's and no R142A's in a game. Damn kids think they the same damn thing.

[@robroy6374]

R188's and R142/142A's both look the same anyways. Stop lying to yourself

[@nyctmtakid8358]

@robroy6374 I don't know what the hell you talking about, but R142's are not identical to the R142A or R188.

[@robroy6374]

yes, they do, on the outside. use your damn eyes.@@nyctmtakid8358

I love it!!! Also congratulations on 10k subs🎉🎉❤❤

[@brendanmillea]

W video man 😄💙🔥

[@ConeyIslandProductions]

Also, the acceleration sound of the two is different. The R142A shares the same sound as the R160A, while the R188 shares the same sounds as the R143.

[@AdmiringShepardPuppy-dr5ts]

I like also when the r180 moves and makes the sound and the numbers move when the sound of the train moves 1:43

[@vibinzey]

HOLY SHIT THIS FINALLY CAME

[@Blank00]

The R142As will have CBTC as part of a future overhaul. I don't get why the overhaul will not involve converting the remaining R142As into converted R188s, or at least 10-car R188s, and then just say that the R188 is now assigned to the 4 and 7 trains

[@Jose_nyc]

2:10 i didn't not know that thanks

[@GoodbyeR33]

It okay transitcity you can add the differences between the r142A & r188 video 2

[@KongDavidNow]

Dang all I knew was that R188s had 11 cars. This really helped!

[@konnichiwasenpai312]

The R62A also had 11 cars that used to be running on the 7 line before the 1 car uncoupled then transferred over to the 6 line

[@EuropeanRailfan]

The R188s are only on the 7 line, while the R142As can be found usually on the 4, 5, and 6 lines

[@frankscalera7076]

I miss the r 142 on the 6 line can’t stand the r62 on the 6 .cant wait till we get the r262 on the 5 line

[@LongIslandguyHempsteadNY]

hey! i got something for you tc! one more thing R188s were first built in 2013 and R142/As were built in 2001

[@chrisdadrilla]

Jerome Yard does NOT take care of their R142As, the train is so dirty outside compared to the R188s, where Corona Yard keeps theirs clean and spotless for the most part.

[@TuningTony]

I dont live in America, but rather interesting

[@RDD10192]

1:20 OMG UR EATING PIZZA IM SO JEALOUS 😭😭

[@russellwong1385]

The r188 have a BMT/IND emergency intercom system.

Are you going to get the new r40s

[@urbexfloxks1641]

1 more thing that I realized is that R188 have way darker windows

[@transitcity]

They are exactly the same as the R142As. It can appear darker or lighter when viewed in different lighting conditions.

[@watchingbased784]

Why Are there are numbers like 6346 or 1140?

What about R143s Vs R160s?

Hey transit can you maybe make a tutorial on how you make your animations please cause I'm trying g to animate like you

One thing, the R142A uses the 4 Train and R188 uses the 7 train

[@sebastienroland349]

It would be better off if those R142As should be used for the 6 Trains (7591-7810) 🚊 and the R142s should be used for the 4 Trains (1101-1250 and 7131-7180) 🚊.

[@sebastienroland349]

@ambush4131 They don’t have that many R142As on the 4 Train since a lot of other R142A 6 Trains were converted into R188 7 Trains. Also, R142 Cars (1101-1250 and 7131-7180) look much better and brighter on the 4 Trains than the R142As.
