I'm a subway operator from Munich, Germany, and i hope to someday travel to NYC, not just for the beautiful city, but also for the subway, sadly i wont see the older models in service i think.
The only train models in service left are the: R46 R62 R62A R68 R68A R142 R142A R143 R160A (or just R160) R160B (or R160 Siemens) R179 Most likely the R46, R62, R62A will be retired by the time you get here by the upcoming R211 and R262. Some R68's or R68A's will retire once the R211 comes. It's not guaranteed that the whole fleet of them will retire. The R68/A's are probably going to still be in service, but it will be rare to see them.
@@jaydottt_transitfanner update: the r46s and r68s have yet to retire and r211s are fully in service. so we might not see those 2 trains retire for a while
yea your proably right, those things always seem to go the slowest even when using the newer models and going down straight stretches of track, they always go slow.
Yep. Ten car 160's during a G.O. The crew office had me work it a couple times. The CIB's were tough to find when I had to point at it after my partner stopped at his marker.
These are my favorite parts of the video: 5:30 This first one is with an F train that bypassed West 8th Street and a G train leaving 8:28 This second one is with a G train arriving quickly bounded to Coney Island 10:22 This one is with a speedy G train and another with a fast arrival at Fulton Street and another one arriving and departing at Avenue N 24:44 This one is with a G train arriving and leaving at Smith 9th Street while it's snowing with another one leaving as well 31:19 This one is when the train is outside 32:08 This one is with the G train fast arriving at Church Avenue 32:45 Downtown G train at 4th Avenue 37:27 Uptown G train at 4th Avenue 39:32 Downtown G train Back to Smith 9th Street 40:31 This one is with a double G train Downtown departing and Uptown fast arriving at Bergen Street 42:15 Another downtown arrives at Bergen Street 43:02 Downtown G train leaving Smith 9th Street 43:56 This one is with a downtown G train arriving Hoyt Shermerhorn Street with screeching brake sound 44:28 This one is with a downtown G train holding at Classon Street 45:20 This one is with a G train leaving Court Square now headed to Coney Island 45:25 G train at Kings Highway 48:00 G train terminating at Court Square 57:01 G train leaving 4th Avenue 57:34 This last one is with an Uptown G train arriving at Myrtle Willoughby Avenue and G train leaving Avenue X at the end
I used to love taking the G train from Rego Park to Downtown Brooklyn. Especially on Friday Morning. I would listen to en entire side of what I recorded on Stretch and Bobbito show :)
Kevy Finesse It can be done, but it has to be done correctly. This move should be done in conjunction with a Queens Bypass Line, which would pave the way for deinterlining of the heavily used line. With this, F trains, which use the 63rd Street Line, would shift to the new bypass line and run out to Jamaica Center. The E train would run to 179th Street. A new Rockaway Beach service would be built, and M trains, which presently use the 53rd Street Tunnel, would be rerouted along the 63rd Street Tunnel and bypass line, then into the Rockaway Beach Branch to Far Rockaway. A train service would be rerouted to Rockaway Park. The R would replace N service on Astoria, with the N going via the Second Avenue Subway with the Q.
@JeremiahC99 The R once ran to Astoria-Ditmars, but swapped northern terminals with the N, which ran to Forest Hills, so it could gain direct yard access to Jamaica Yard. Previously, R trains had to deadhead from Coney Island Yard.
Fun fact At one point the G line was by far the most dangerous in New York City, and was to be avoided by even the most seasoned New Yorker. Part of it had to do with add the time did the train did not go into Manhattan and served only Brooklyn and Queens and was a one-man train meaning no conductor and all hell broke loose and people died, more than once. Cheers and thanks for riding the m t a
Dj Hammers on 44:15 I just get so used to train and subway train noises and it just sounds so good I’m sorry for who doesn’t like this R.I.P their eardrums
R160'S make a great fit for the (G) Train. They have a better lengthening on the station's platforms. Those sets double the amount of space that the R68'S create, when those are sets of 4 cars.
But problem is MTA already has to many cars and can't order New ones since they already ordered the R179's and when CBTC is on the F from Church Ave to Coney Island half of the R160's will be on the F because of more ridership on the F probably.
I hope MTA restore G train service to Forest Hills. It was a lot less time travelling between Brooklyn & Queens. Plus you didn't have to go through Manhattan at all. I also hope MTA consider running the G train all times to Coney Island, so, that way the F train can run express on the Culver Line during rush peak hours.
The F and G should switch Brooklyn terminals and have the F run express from Church avenue to Bergen Street. (reopen the lower level at Bergen Street) it would make the G more reliable and the F trains wouldn't be as crowded
@@willyberesford6964 with a tag like yours you should be able to answer your own question. With all the newcomers occupying those new high-rises on 4th ave and the new buildings on Smith st. the only direct service to Manhattan would be the slow running R train. Or transfer at Hoyt/Schermerhorn. Good idea but don't hold you breath.
@@rodeliot You forgot a transfer to F train at Bergen. As for the R train, they just have to increase frequency by extending the W. How hard can that be?
@@willyberesford6964 Bergen street transfer uses stairs. Your ideas are good but they all require added investment in rolling stock. R179s were almost 5 years behind schedule and over budget. A lot of this had to do with Bombardier but still, adding cars is no easy task.
the United States and the United Kingdom these are the two countries that I love !! I have never been in the United States, but on the other hand I have already been in the United Kingdom, while I am French !! I would like to know who loves France among you?
They should’ve kept the c in Brooklyn, ran to lefferts blvd, have all a trains go to far rockaway and f trains go to rockaway park, thus eliminating the rockaway park shuttle
At least any set(s) of 8 cars of R160A'S would make a good fit for the (G) Train. The (G) Train has been quite a disaster, and they are also shorter than a train-set that would operate the (J) Train. The (E) & (F) Trains are already long enough to level with an entire station's platform. :)
New York City Subway is nice cause I catch the (e) train is going 128 speed well I love these trains cause some New York trains and I need to learn a lot more about New York City Subway
It's always kinda hilarious to me how many of those 5-bulb white utility lights they have strung up along the length of those tunnels. Why so many, I wonder??

New York is so majestic when it's snowy. Sadly I live on the other side of the country.

I know, many people living there take it for granted. I moved to Philly, and NYC is better
The snow and cold look so good when it's 100 degrees where I am.
I played on the snow for god knows how long in Staten Island but since I didn’t want to wear gloves, my hands hurt so bad!
And I am in NYC
