[@leecornwell5632]

I have a real spriital feeling that they are gonna make the R262As with the End ways and the R262s with open gangways I'm telling you. Look up on you tube planning for the R262/AS . Article and read it very very carefully.

[@AnaCastillo-xx9of]

1:32 r188 will be replaced as r142A on (7) line with r262

[@leecornwell5632]

What line will the R188s goes when the brand new R262/As comes?.

[@leecornwell5632]

You know that the R62AS is not on the 7 Flushing line anymore because of CBTCs. Now they have the R62AS back on the Pelham 6 line. I have another spiral feeling that they are definitely gonna have the 8 signs on them and up to 24 computer signs I'm telling you.

[@AnaCastillo-xx9of]

@@leecornwell5632 NOPE!!

[@chicago-l9125]

The 6 line should definitely receive the R262s since it lost all of its R142As to the 7 Flushing.

[@CR1Creative]

The Remaining 220 R142A's went to Jerome 4 line alongside 200 R142's we have to start appreciating R62A's on the pelham line because soon the 6 will eventually be 100% R262's

[@CR1Creative]

Logically R262 car assignments should go as follows: Base Order (504 cars) -5 Train: 480 cars (Displacing 430 R142's to go on the (3) and Indirect Replacement of 315 R62's). -42nd Street Shuttle: 24 cars (Direct Replacement of 24 R62A's). Option Order 1 (445 cars) -6 Train: 445 cars (Direct Replacement of 435 R62A's, fleet expansion for local and express service). Option Order 2 (415 cars) -4 Train: 415 cars (Displaced 200 R142's and 220 R142A's to go on the (1) and Indirect Replacement of 365 R62A's). The 1 and 3 gets R142/A's and The 2 will keep R142's Since the 2 and 5 share a fleet they can swap interchangeably between R142's and R262's This allow for a consistent fleet assignment across all IRT Yards, reducing maintenance headaches. Keep in Mind that the MTA wants all R262's on Lexington Avenue for Lexington Avenue CBTC While R142/A's move to Broadway 7th avenue line makes the most sense

[@leecornwell5632]

Don't count the 8 Thrid Avenue Elevated line out either because when the brand new R262/As comes they are definitely gonna have the powder blue 🔵 8 signs I'm telling you.

[@leecornwell5632]

That's the reason why they have the R62AS back on the Pelham 6 line. I have a real spriital feeling they are gonna put the R62AS on the 8 Thrid Elevated line I'm telling you.

Wrong . The J Z trains are definitely not getting no R262/As. Only the 1 2 3 9 8 6 4 11 . For the A devisin iRT lines. The J Z trains are definitely staying put with the R179s R160/As.

The R262's would be small and narrow to run on the B Division the R262's are for the A Divison 2/4/5/6 lines as well as the 42nd Street shuttle and the R142's will go to the Broadway (1 & 3 lines) and the 2/5 is keeping it's R142's and the R142A's will go to the (6) so we know the Broadway (1&3) lines as well as the flushing Line Isn't gonna get the R262's the flushing line is staying put with it's R188's and the J/Z is staying put with it's R160's and R179's

[@leecornwell5632]

The R188s are definitely doing fine on the 7 Flushing line with no macamchel problems at all. The Pelham 6 line was not ready for no CBTCS. There was a real serious talk on the Flushing 7 line was getting CBTCS back in 2011 and the R142As were gonna be taking off the Pelham 6 line for the R62AS to come back home to the Pelham 6 line for a swap changes to the old fleets and new fleets and the rest of the R142AS were sent to the Jerome Ave 4 line.

@@AnaCastillo-zu2ft Recently I've learned that The main goal is for the IND to be 100% NTT and Broadway N Q W will be the only lines to get 100% SMEE's The Base order of R211's will go to the A/C to increase capacity and speed up service option order 1 is for (5-car sets) which will get split between Coney Island Yard and Concourse to run on the B/D Option order 2 is for (4-car sets) which will go to Jamaica Yard to Run on the (G) since the G doesn't run on Queens Boulevard and the G will retain it's R160's since the G is unlikely go to back to their SMEE units anytime soon Plus ENY yard (J/Z/L/M) doesn't need R211's since ENY Yard has plenty of enough cars I've come up with a new prediction on where the R211's will go It seems as though Jamaica will not get any R211's due to low capacity compared to the R160's Queens Boulevard (E/F/M/R) needs trains with the highest capacity so Jamaica Yard (E/F/G/R) will retain it's R160's The A/B/C/D will definitely use R211's there's no doubt in my mind about that Since The A/C needs R211's to increase capacity and speed up service also 8th avenue line will get CBTC soon so the A and C needs NTT's. The A and C will also continue using their R179's. The B and D meanwhile will get Fully R211's for 6th avenue CBTC since 6th avenue is extremely overcrowded Meanwhile R68's from Concourse will have their R68's sent over to the N Q W, While R68A's sent over to the Q. Meanwhile the G will retain it's R160's and will have its cars extended from 5 to 8 cars. From my understanding since the Second option order is for (4-car sets) the 32 R211 (4-car sets) will go to the G Since the G is unlikely to go back running SMEE's again anytime soon considering how Culver is expected to get CBTC after Queens Boulevard The J/Z, L and M will likely continue running with their current rolling stock assignments. I think the 8-car R211's are only meant for the C and I Don't think the MTA has any plans to extend it to 10-car trains anytime soon. Final predictions A/C: R179's and R211's B/D: R211's E/F: R160A-2's and R160B's G: R160A-2's and R160B's and R211's J/Z: R143, R160A-1, R179's L: R143's, R160A-1 M: R160A-1 N/W: R68's Q: R68's R68A's (Occasional R211pop ups) R: R160A-2's Franklin Aveune Shuttle: R68's only Rockaway Shuttle: R179's only
