The 211 Contract might not be complete by the time of 8th Avenue CBTC’s expected Date of Implementation. 207th Yard does not have the Capacity to *Maintain 10 Car Trains, and we know that ENY has a surplus of Rolling Stock. IF it doesn’t negatively impact and Service, why not transfer some cars from ENY > 207 to fill the Quota for NTT’s on the in time for 8th Avenue CBTC? IK that some 8 Car 179’s have also done CBTC Testing and School Car on Queens Blvd, (witnessed one pass by me one night when performing Signal Maintenance in the 53rd Street Tube, although for the latter reason) Ultimately, that Decision is up to the Higher Ups at Car Equipment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think either 5600-5598 or 5602-5604. 5603 is between 5602-5604 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
