The R142 and her sisters are the eldest daughters of the R110A, and may have similar parts in their motors as their mother. Much like the R160B-2. She has parts of her cousin, R142A, as a part of her motor.
Is it just me or does that joint track sound good as hell. I love hearing that noise when the trains go over it. Best part of riding the Trains. Man reminds me of being a kid....
You, my friend, are an 'urbanrailer'! I coined the term in 2014 to describe those of us who love trains in general but specifically subways, light rail, trolleys, buses and commuter rail roads; the whole urban transit system scene! I've loved riding the subway since I was a child seven decades + years ago. I loved the Lionel trains I got for Christmas but outside my Bronx tenement window was the real, live train set: the IRT lines! I would get so excited when we went to visit my sister in Brooklyn; the IND, city built and run system was so different from the IRT and BMT trains! I've 'visited' urban railway systems across the country and around the world thanks to the internet and specifically TH-cam and people like you who record and document these compact rail roads that are the life blood of our city! I lived in Corona for 63 years but now live in Woodside! Love my new neighborhood and still love riding the subway! The #7 is dear to my heart; I think it's one of the best lines in the City!
DJH you filmed this video 2 months before my little brother was born. And I was 4 at the time. I used to ride 7 trains all the time. I have a kind of faint memory going on a r188 and looking out the window and walking around in the train car. Oh, the memories🥹

@@ironmanbacano4094 it's to late now. The R62as had to go back to the Pelham 6 line because the Kawasaki Yonkers had a contact to add extra 11 cars for the Flushing line for Cbtcs . That's the reason why they put the R62as back on the Pelham line. The Pelham 6 line was not ready for Cbtcs. We all knew that this was going to happen. I been hearing this sense 2012. However they could definitely slip a R142as on the Pelham line on and off from the Jerome avenue 4 line. Not the 7 Flushing line. The Jerome avenue 4 line does not have CBTCS HOOKED up ether.
R62A local-express indicator to distinguish between local and express trains in Queens. The cars are now assigned to the 6 route, which also has a similar express service in the Bronx.
Those trains that were on the 7 line did a good job they were also larger so they can fit more ppl which really helped the 7 line because it’s always packed the new trains are to small
Hot Wheels And Subway Fanatic 2019 The 6 uses R62As, which have no propulsion sound effect. The R142As with the propulsion seen in the video on the 7 line were once on the 6, but moved to the 7 line in exchange for the R62As returning home.
Hot Wheels And Subway Fanatic 2019 Is it for a weekend service change where the 6 is split at 125th Street, because usually at that time, the 4 lends its R142/A cars from its spare factor for the southern section of this split 6 train service (between 149th Street-Concourse and Brooklyn Bridge). Other than that, there is absolutely no reason for the R142s to be coming off the 4 line or even the 2/5 service to be on the 6 line. We don’t even have replacements (R262s) yet.
Hot Wheels And Subway Fanatic 2019 Actually, according to the NYC Transit Forums NYC Subway Car Listing, I am seeing NO R142/As assigned to Westchester Yard for the 6. There are about 445 R62As assigned to the 6 line, absolutely MORE THAN ENOUGH to handle all needs on the 6 line.
Hot Wheels And Subway Fanatic 2019 The “downgrade” from R142As to R62As is very minor. Both are modern and have not impacted service or comfort in any way. As for why this “downgrade” occurred, it was to supply R142A trains for the Flushing Line CBTC, which was sorely needed, allow for R62As to come on the line for increased service, and to boost Kawasaki Heavy Industries track record for the R211 contract. It all adds up.

Hi, i've noticed that near you, the trains runs left to right ,farther away right to left, but what about the middle track? What determines the direction of the express train?
It’s bidirectional. The uses it in the peak direction (to Manhattan in the morning, from Manhattan in the afternoon) during rush hours and during special events (I.e, Mets Games) when there is a super express train going from Willets Point Blvd to Manhattan.
express is my best bet during morning and evening but local is also good too because express only has 7 stops in queens while 7 local has 18 stops in queens.
@Supreme L Train Productions They are definitely gonna bring back the R142as back on the Pelham line I'm telling you.

I could see the Flushing line having CBTCS HOOKED up fine why give the rest of the R142as from the Pelham line and give it to the Jerome avenue 4 line.

I grew up with it to and I agree
When will yall get over that trash
On the older R62s, green circles indicate a local service, while red diamonds indicate as an express service.
Thats the R62As not the R62s
what do you mean by "older" and its not R62s those are on the 1 AND 3 and R62A didnt have LED lights back in the 80s-early 2000s i think

Whats that sound effect that the R188s play when Starting up and Powering down? Is it done on purpose, or is like some sort of engine thing.
