Finally had to happen - probably one of the 168 St (A) trips was run with an R211A train, and since (C) crews should already be qualified it should be no  problem 

There are 4 sets assigned to the (C) on a Tertiary Base on weekdays.

I just saw 4304 in service! On a Northbound (A) passing Ralph. Couldn't see the first half as it was blocked by a passing Southbound train, 4304 was the South Motor. 

 

EDIT: I have been informed 4310-4314 is the other half of the consist on the North end.

This is the 25th R211a in revenue service & the first 43xx consist.

Confirmed. Worth noting that it's been in service for two days now.
