Prob bc the issue arose in manhatten

Same here

I agree

Same and I like the R62a too!

@@javie2064 it fits perfectly tho

trainluvr you mean the 7 train and N train at queens boro plaza

trainluvr thats an anomaly seeing the letter number trains are wider. I wonder how that happened? Once I was on the 6 train in the bronx on the outside El and we were stopped between stations and the doors opened on the right side!

Your basically saying the Flushing line which is the 7 went to The Astoria Line and since IRT lines have a big gap in BMT platforms, the train Operator or conductor said to mind the gap

That's even more absurd and rare since it was the 1970s IRT and BMT trains have different platform lengths, i doubt that was hard for people to go. And, 7 via the N (Formerly the R to Astoria)? And it was real... Absolutely crazy.

John Kuang It is.

At 0:49, if you pause the video, you can see the 2 and 5 train stops on the right hand side.

Jiselle Solomon-Revell i think we can all tell who’s the real dog here....

Thats like using the 2 train lol

Jay Money Or 5

@Brown Bear Revell No, you!

@Brown Bear Revell no u

Morgan Limes i think him turning away the camera lol

Transit Railfan probably was a really awkward moment lol

*Add on... R62: What are you doing here? R142: There was a switch problem @ 96 st. I was suprised to be rerouted from 2 train. R62: If the South Ferry is using the loop, you are done.

Sandy Valenzuela I agree!

That would probably happen in 2030 when R62/a are due for replacement

M3lgar 5 oh really 2030?

Yza abellanosa Yup,Same for the r68,68A

When the r262s come r142 will be placed on the 1 and 3 lines

I just don't see why Marble Hills belongs to Manhattan yet it is not part of Manhattan Island.

jonathan chan History is the reason why. It used to be part of the Island, but the Harlem River was rerouted through a more direct route. For a while, it used to be an Island, but the old path was filled it, connecting it to the Bronx.

@@TheRailLeaguer Thank you for the info, that saved my time for research.

Isaiah muniz the 9 did not make any sense because the numbers of IRT lines are 123 456 7 if 9 is here it’s 1239 456 7 does not make sense because it’s not in order. It should have been a diamond 1.

MTA LIRR Elmhurst Station I’m not saying it did not exist I say it does not make sense because the numbers ar’ent in a clean order.

Isaiah muniz Yeah like in 2010 r142 9 train lol

Damn, I wish they brung back the 9's

Though

Lucky

@@imsolame2085 they suck now they want to ruin the 1 line that has awesome equipment with the R62As the 1 line is R62A only and that’s how it should be

Yes that's allowed. The trains are completely interchangeable (as far as the number lines go). As long as the train's length is not an issue it can operate in customer service on the line. If the train cannot get back to it's terminal, they'll use it where it is to run on another line to pick up the slack.

Yes? Same happened to the C train to 207th street one time

almost looks like reviewbrah

#Rapeface

sonicboy678 6 to flatbush too lol

Transit Railfan That had to do with no service on the 2 and 5 from 3rd ave 149 to there last stops in the bronx due to disabled train at west farm/ tremont. That was around 7am which lasted around an hour which service was partially restored between 180 to dyre ave and Wakefield. Shuttle buses were provided for those affected stations between 3rd ave to 180 st. until around 9:30 to 10 am which train service resumed.

Bruh

Same

Surprising😁😁😁

The nice trains are referred as R142A, R160A, R160B, R160 Cuomo, And R179. R143's Are just R160 But with R142 propulsion :-:

@Serenity Love really came here to drag someone on a KZfaq comment two years later? 🥱

@Serenity Love nah. Not even "new tech" they are NTT Imao Do your research

@Serenity Love nah shut up and stop bein so toxic dumbass

@Serenity Love u g

Sayyyyyyy... 1 train to 242nd street...2 train to 241st street... Why not swotch routes?😂😂😂

Breakdowns those are the best reliable trains in the system and the 1 is so consistent with those trains get your facts straight I don’t want to see a R142 near the 1 line the R62As are doing just fine

​@@markgriffin2087 R262's aren't going to the (1) or (3) They're going exclusively on the Lexington Avenue line because they're getting CBTC first. While the (1) and (3) gets displaced NTT's from the (4) and (5). Lexington Avenue is getting CBTC followed by 7th Avenue. So while R262's are on Lexington, the R142 and R142A's will be out getting retrofitted with CBTC technology by then the MTA is gonna place them on the (1) and (3) lines and the (6) has to get R262's in order for CBTC so priority is definitely 4, 5 and 6 and of course anything the 5 gets the 2 shares as well For some people that doesn't understand. The R142's and R142A's that are on the 4 and 5 are compatible with CBTC but they have to be retrofitted. The R142 and R142A's didn't come with the technology they're 20 years old. While those are taken away to be fitted, the R262's will replace them (and are CBTC equipped with the technology off the bat). By the time R142 and R142A's are back, the MTA would've started working on CBTC for 7th Avenue. The important thing is here is that the R262's definitely have to be on Lexington. And the 42nd Street Shuttle is getting R262's as well. Remember, in the MTA the oldest trains don't always get replaced directly with newer trains. There's a lot more to it Lexington Avenue is the Busiest line in the A Divison. That's why the MTA is trying to get the second phase of SAS to 125th street to ease congestion over to Lexington Avenue. The MTA wants All R262's on Lexington Avenue (4), (5) and (6) lines for Lexington Avenue CBTC the (1) and (3) lines will get displaced NTT's from the (4) and (5) lines

We don't have enough.

Sad, but true.

And the loop fitted NTT better because the cars are in 5-car sets.

Well, the reason why NTTs weren't on the 1 line when the loop was operational was because there's no shield cover for the NTTs. They were only made for the SMEEs.

What shield cover?

Gio Flores I was gonna say the same thing XD

Fucking clowns ugh 😑

Bruh

@@Mysteryman1500 bruh

*squat*winks*

@CESAR LARA no they suck R62As belong on the 1 line and the 1 line only

Hopefully never

and then do the next stop

Sharon Watkins 2010

Nah 2014 or 2015

Rerouted 2 via the 1 signed up ad the 1

@redphone243 @Jermaine Harrell @The SOS DuD you're ALL wrong. Spring 2018.

2013. I saw one when I was going to south ferry.

Style as Orion VII.

Sir 2k Da Goat I Agreed

Sir 2k DA GOAT Ikr i seen r142 on the 7 today in the express line and r179 on the w i am lucky

Kevin Bravo You mean the r188, and the W trains don't have r179s, Only the A,C,J&Z lines

Kevin Bravo are you sure? because the R142s are 2 4 and 5. and the R179 was the J and Z

Why are they rare

Fuseguy is Cool 1 2 and 3. Also last month the last R142A 6 Train was running.

redphone243 I say the 1 line because the r62s on the 3 are fine where they are for now. Why not put some r62as on the 2/5 lines. Maybe at least 2 sets.

Karen Evans Not happening. The 2 and 5 trains will forever share cars, so having R62As (even two sets) will not work. Those two sets can be the difference between normal service and bad delays on the 2 and 5 lines.

Jalen Odom happy birthday to ur mom

Strange... but amazing at the same time

Don't worry the 1 & 3 will have its own r142 units when the brand new R262s get here to replace r62 & r62As on the 1/3/6/S

Oh yea the 6 as well!!!!!!!!!!!

train's "I meant"

Kai Freeman Could happen. Assuming that the R262 order totals to 1500, I expect 30 of the cars to be I. 6-car consists for the 42nd Street Shuttle. This leaves 1470 cars in 5-car consists. I would expect 2, 4, and 5 to get 450 cars each, with another 120 cars for the 3 line. As for the R142s, 400 cars can go for the 1, 460 for the 6, and the rest for the 3. The 3 fleet would have 290 cars. The remaining 220 R142As would then go on the 7 line for increased service.

Alex The railfan yeah

Yes in 2011

Alex The railfan yeah their has been but it seen rarely cause they get r62a from the 1 mostly

Kevin Bravo That's not possible. If 2 was suspended extra 1,3,and 5 trains would be operated, and the fact that 7 is an independent line that MTA is ready to switch to CBTC and then ATO means it can only have R188 on it.

Minion Bay Oh then maybe an r62a 6 train could go to the 7 if gets suspended or can probably go to the 4 or 5 train.

Kevin Bravo R62A's have recently been expelled from the 7 to automate the Flushing line in the future.

Minion Bay What CBTC?

Betard 62 Communications Based Train Control. This is the technology that can allow trains to run more frequently on super busy lines (like the Flushing Line).

No thay Will not put R142A on the 1 line ever

MTA System No, but in the future, I do expect 400 R142s on the 1 to replace the R62As.

LITTLE-E R160

redphone243 oh okay thx

Kevin Bravo With the R262 order, I do expect 400 R142s to go to the 1 line.
