Recorded on Sunday, June 16, 2024, from 34 St-Penn Station to Fulton St.
This is my 1st time recording a ride on an R211A! This is my 2nd time riding the R211A during my East Coast trip! I also recorded the first time riding it, but it was too crowded, so I deleted it after getting this video.
After visiting Hudson Yards & Penn Station, I went to Little Italy for some lunch there, and I had to get there by taking the (A)/(C) Train then the (J) train. The (1)/(2)/(3) to the (J) also worked but I wanted the (A)(C) instead because you have a chance of getting an old R46, or a newer R211 on those lines.
The (A) train came first, and it was an R211A, so I took that train! I'm hoping that next time I come back to NYC, I catch an open gangway R211T train.
