Coney Island Yard will make the exterior look super clean when they go through the wash. are taking R160 and saying get these R46 away from us we are tired of using them right and , briefly use them before. Meanwhile are glad to still use R46 and some R179. Just like and took R142A from and got R62A. Queens Yard are taking the New Tech Cars. The swap is all about getting the Queens Blvd. lines CBTC ready. Any R46 issue is a temporary one because in a few years those cars will begin their retirement. It's not a question of the F and R being tired of them! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will still be some R160 Siemens left at CIYD. The amount will depend if transit will retire the R32's this month or next. If they do, every barn will have a lower spare factor. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know if they might bring it back to the coney island yard somehow when the R211 comes it will be tested on one line which we don't know. Later on it's gonna transfer to all the yards in the new york city transit and mostly the and trains will be all R160s and some R211s will be running on the Queens Blvd Line and mostly It could be a chance that the r160s and some siemens might go back to the CIY but it's a prediction and it could be true or wrong we'll see in 2025. 17 hours ago, Around the Horn said: I would love to know why everyone thinks they're going back...

SubwayFan3000 Posted March 2, 2020 Share #6012 Posted March 2, 2020 R211s are expected to arrive in 2021 NOT 2025, R211s are all CBTC Equipped so I would Say that there is 50/50 Chance that R160s might be swapped back to it's home yard in Coney Island when R211s are in service in Next Year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric B Posted March 3, 2020 Share #6025 Posted March 3, 2020 Don't know why there's all this talk of the 160's going back to CIY when the 211's arrive. This must be assuming the 211's are going to JYD. But it was already said they were going to the (N)(W) and (G). The 211T test units might show up on the (E), but not enough of the fleet to push 160's back. If they decide to order a fleet of 211T's and place them on the (E), then you might see some 160's go back. But that's not decided now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
