In this channel, I will upload Railfanning videos instead of uploading them in my main channel. My videos will include myself filming in the New York City subway!
(3/14/2024) Some of my old videos in this channel will contain unnecessary content such as the thumbnails, Outro clips, and unnecessary font usage at the start of the video. This was only because I used to upload railfanning videos since my main channel but stopped since May 2021 due to not being suitable for it…

Long Train Ride #4 Old Nassau Street M Train Route
I’m back with another long train ride video featuring the discontinued Nassau Street M Train route which last ran since late June 2010 from Metropolitan avenue to Bay Parkway station on the BMT west end line.
This video contains 5 footages which were all filmed in the same day on December 19 of this year.
The first video starts with filming the current M Train we know today from Middle Village Metropolitan Avenue to Delancey Street Essex Street Station
The second video starts with an R143 J Train Ride from Delancey Street to Broad Street Station
The third video just shows me filming the R143 J Train leaving Broad Street Station since the connection to the Montague Street Tunnel cannot be used anymore but still exist for their purposes so I had to make my way back to Canal Street to Transfer to the R Train
The fourth video begins with me arriving at Whitehall Street South Ferry Station on the R Train then filming it to 36 Street Station Sunset Park.
The fifth and final video shows me riding an R68 D Train from 36 Street to Bay Parkway Station featuring R160 D Train announcements I have added since the conductor wasn’t loud enough when speaking. This one was a tough one to film because of crowds especially when there was someone just standing next to the R68 being in my way since I wanted to be in a good position to film the R68 D Train departing, I also for some reason caught 3 northbound R46 N Trains during the ride.
Credit goes to MTANYCTSubwayProductions for the R160 D Train announcements and Bklynkid52 for the accessible station announcement.
All videos were Taken on 12/19/2024
First video at 2:35pm
Second video at 3:09pm
Third video at 3:23pm
Fourth video at 3:55 pm
Fifth video at 4:21pm

R160 Q Train Ride

It’s been over a year since I last caught an R160 on the Q line in person. It’s a shame that by the time I first started high school since September 2021 to finally get a chance to ride the B and Q trains very often, the entire Q line was already filled with R46s and R68/As unfortunately. Before high school I almost never rode neither of these lines and wanted to ride the Q train that had many ...

@ryanistotallycool I didn’t notice it actually
@ ik im not leaking my address tho
If that old R44 is rockin,’ don’t come a knockin.’ 😂
Please clean your camera lens before you start recording
@@Kitsune9063 I actually thought it was just the quality having issues
@icyleorailfanningchannel930 Yeah, well now you know. Always try and keep your camera lens clean.
Cool, I also rode a (B) train everyday from Broadway Lafayette Street to Kings Highway. So this R211 is part of the base order and what is confirming is heading to the (A) (C) and (Rockaway Shuttle). I also, I don't believe the R211s will go to the (B) and (Q) lines because what I heard on their categories is that both of these lines do not have CBTC in progress or installation and do not have enough high ridership. In 2025 or so, they will be the R68/A's. But, cool video.
Won't go on Rockaway park shuttle btw
Not high enough ridership? Try getting seats on a Q/N/D during rush hour or school hours. And CBTC is not the only factor - that will take decades, and the 46 and 68 won't last forever. (Nor will older trains on the A division for that matter).

same this was my first time in staten island and i had lots of fun! new subscriber 👍
As a Staten Islander, I think we need more tourism. Glad to have you here!
Why do conductors seems to have trouble opening the doors on these new trains?
I guess they’re trying to be extra safe or something
@@icyleorailfanningchannel930 i think there used to the r44s that was 50 years ago
@@FoxSunny13also the R211 are MTA’s newest trains so it may be a bit different
@@langstonreese7077 especially the max speed on the r211s is 40mph (if I'm wrong pls correct me) and the r44 went 87 mph witch is the fastest train in the city it happened in the early 1990s and mabye to today its still even is service on the Staten railway
their trying to confirm if the train is fully in the station, so they can choose which doors will be opened
Last Time I Rode The D Train Was 2023
Will the r211s be assigned to the N,Q and W lines
Hopefully since they all use R46s
The N and Q Needs New Subway Cars Over
The Mta Can't be using old trains For the Next 6 or 7 years
Why can’t they just add some r160s for the Q/W/N trains?… like I haven’t rode one since 5 years from now :(
I know The R46 Has Been In Service for years Since 1975 But Sometimes They No AC and the doors doesn't close properly
Damn The Mta Needs to put the R160s Back on the N and Q
For real
Because of CBTC swap I know the A and C Has The R211s Astoria line Needs CBTC Also The R68 Has Been Around Since the 80s The N and Q Needs to Get New Subway Cars Over
Sometimes the AC doesn't work on some cars and sometimes the doors doesn't close properly
It's just that I don't like taking An old trains that doesn't have AC and sometimes on some cars it doesn't work
Awesome Bro 👌
Awesome Video I'm hoping that the Mta Makes The Upcoming R268 So it Can be On the N and Q This is why I take the R160 on the R Because I'm still upset about that CBTC Swap
What happened to all of my views and likes I normally get when uploading?
So when a deranged homeless bum starts to attack you, you're able to escape!

Don’t worry guys! The video is the same as the one I deleted, I just had to fix the frame rate, you guys can re-like the video again!
I've been trying to catch an R211T for so long, Nice!
Do u earn money from yt?
Not really
The not in service R160s here are usually going to 95th st (last stop for the R) for the morning 6 min rush hour service. I think they switch tracks at 36th st but not too sure. Unfortunately, not for the N train :(
I miss these so much on the (C)
Great! You’re on the R211 with competition against E, but when I’m on it I get an empty local track.
hi
Sup?
Was that another 211 on the other track or a 179?
@@TheLordAI at 207 street station?
I like.
Not Bad...
It has now been a year since someone complained to me about sneezing while I was in the middle of filming! Thank god I filmed her to show who yelled at me before she will never be seen again. She was complaining at 6:48 in the video
It has now been a year since those guys noticed me filming at 14:13
In my opinion I would say Heck No and Never why because the N Q and W Trains already have good equipment because if there are No R160s on those lines then there is a 50/50 chance that the R160s could eventually go back to the A Train again because the A Train hasn’t had R160s in a long time now
dayum kinda epic
Thanks for watching my B44-SBS video and for letting me know you recorded this route. Very nice (and short!). It seems the B2 line will be retired when the new Brooklyn Bus Network Redesign happens, so, I should rush to record my own video on this line too!
No way it will be gone!
Seeing these videos bring back memories of the days back in high school when I rode the A train to and from school every day!
I usually take the B or Q trains to high school
14:30 wow those 2 guys seeing you filming
Yeah
There’s one running on the N today, not a swap just being loaned
Probably not since makes no sense for the 5-car R160s to leave Jamaica Yard and mess up the fleet uniformity along Queens Blvd. The NQW lines will likely get R211s in a few years, but I think we’ll have to wait until the option order cars arrive since the majority of the base order of R211s has to be assigned to the A and C lines (460 cars) for 8th Avenue CBTC.
So It's Possible that the N and Q will get the R 211 cause the R46 is getting old I was upset that the N and Q had get old trains Again
Nice
Not until 2 av and 4 av/ astoria gets cbtc but there will be r211s on the N Q and R

That’s my home stop and thats what i always see a R160 Passing
wait wut?

@@ItsDuckToYou you said it was your home stop
@@icyleorailfanningchannel930 yea and
@@ItsDuckToYou k
No. Any spare sets not needed on Queens Blvd will run on the A line. It's nothing but 46's and 68's for the time being. Don't expect the 211's to replace any R46's running on the BMT until the option order. 8th Ave is next up for CBTC and the 46's on the A/C must go first.
k
They probably won't as of right now. These R160's are mostly transfers and or school trains. School Trains are for newly hired Operators and Conductors
