trainfan22 Posted October 15, 2020 Share #9901 Posted October 15, 2020 Today I seen an R179 on an Rock Park special.. first time I seen an 179 on those runs. I know the 179s ran in service before to Rock Park on G.O's though. 3032... Man the Pikin Yard pigeons must have ate Chipotle or White Castle or something as one half of the car is COVERED in thick bird poop. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emil Posted October 20, 2020 Share #9902 Posted October 20, 2020 when I was out yesterday around 4-5 R179s hit the A line (I was on one myself), one on the C and like 2-3 on the J. I wonder how long before we get issues again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how long before we get issues again. Who knows. They'll probably be like what the R142's are now or break down again within the next few months, at most I'd give it about 6 months since the last time it barely passed the 5 month mark. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4P3607 Posted October 22, 2020 Share #9904 Posted October 22, 2020 (edited) For anyone that's curious I have happened to see the following sets return to service on the as of Thursday October 22 1 PM: 3015-3019 3020-3024 3025-3029 3030-3034 3035-3039 3045-3049 3243-3247 3248-3252 3263-3267 3268-3272 3273-3277 3283-3287 3298-3302 3303-3307 3313-3317 3318-3322 3323-3327 This would make 8.5 full trainsets available. There may be more that I haven't witnessed yet or placed into service today. There are still around 5-6 R160s on the primarily on Rush Hour runs that regularly rotate between Jamaica. Guessing the total number of NTTs on the since June has surpassed 13 (seen 15+ different R160s out during this summer especially on Weekends) as the is also borrowing a number of R46 sets off the until all of their lemons return as well as increased amounts of R46s being shopped (off topic but one AM Rockaway Park trip was cancelled this morning as an R46 had a mechanical issue).

I have a question did they fix the R179 the broken one on 3292 came out separately because that's the one I saw on the picture split into 2 it was scared? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4P3607 Posted October 23, 2020 Share #9914 Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) Add 3278-3282 to the list. 9 × 10-car trains back in service. I don't know which 4-car sets have returned. There's still one half-Cuomo, one full Siemens and about 3-4 other Alstom sets still along the mostly found during rush hours (at least one goes to / from Rock Park almost every weekday if not two). 9502-7, 9118-9122, 8683-7 (the Blue LED set) which is hooked up to that 95xx Cuomo set. 8983-7 and another Siemens are some of the R160s I've seen but they rotate with other Jamaica sets often.

Of course they repaired it, why wouldn't it be repaired? Out of the 4 or 5 months they were out of service, you think they wouldn't have gotten around to fixing the couplers? That was the first thing they had to inspect because of it on every R179 car. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainfan22 Posted October 28, 2020 Share #9917 Posted October 28, 2020 Got one on the without trying today, man I was so happy to get that R179 train, HAVC had the air comfort nice and comfy and the train was fast. I was getting sick and tired of riding those damn R46s on the all the time, garbage HAVC on those cars. I was on one where it was humid INSIDE the car, yuck. I wish their was 20 ten car R179 sets rather than 13 so one would have close to an 50 percent chance of getting one on the 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EphraimB Posted November 5, 2020 Share #9919 Posted November 5, 2020 Is Wikipedia right that the R179s completely replaced the R32s and that the R32s are no more? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, the R32's to my knowledge at least are just in storage, there was a transfer a few days ago where 1 set of an R32 went to Coney Island Yard and another at Canarsie. They are still going to be used as contingency from what I've heard, although I could be wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So do you do this on Polish Wikipedia? Because unless you're taking and trolling here, you don't write English well, and I can't imagine other Wiki English editors letting your edits remain if you type there like you do here. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
