MTA NYC Subway: R179s on the Rockaway Park Shuttle (R179 S Train) - 9/20/23
Рет қаралды 5,770
10 ай бұрынWith more R211s coming into service on the A line, MTA is slowly beginning to retire some of the R46s. As a result, 2 5 car sets of R179s that have already been assigned as backup trains to the Rockaway Park shuttle were in service September 20th. It's unknown if they will stay there or if this is a result of a series of incidents involving people vandalizing train windows on the N, W, and Q lines.

For those wondering why the Rockaway Park branch is served by a shuttle instead of splitting the A like at Lefferts, all but one of the five stations on the Rockaway Park branch are the top 4 least used stations in the system with the remaining station being the 8th. Remember, service patterns in complex rail systems are usually based on ridership demand, not the track layout, connections, junctions or continuations.

I heard that no more R46's are running on the shuttle. Fully R179's now.

There is an inverter sound that makes a similar sound in Japan. It's interesting!

What's your take on CTA's New Yorker counterpart aside from system size? It is also one of America's most iconic els next to yours.

Doubt it cause they mainly use the R211’s on the A but sometimes the C.

R179s are pretty much standard on the Shuttle now. I believe there are no more R46s on that line.
