I’m glad you caught the farewell, but at the same time glad you didn’t go too crazy due to foamers.

With the R42 railcars aside, the R32 is MTA New York City Transit's oldest fleet remaining with 3/5ths, nearly, 5/8ths of a century in service.

13:21 OMG THATS THE R4-

R46: nope you can’t see that

[SleepyRaccoon]

That R46 really said “No R42 for you!”

It would sure be nice if the MTA programmed on the R179s destination signs in a Electric Blue Color! Just a thought...great video as always! :)

The sound of joint tracks is what I love the most about MTA subway trains. I been in many cities but the NYC trains make the best sound on joint tracks. But I might just favor the MTA trains more as s New Yorker...

Amazing 👍💯What for pretty trains the R42👍❣️

A line really needed some NTT trains. Tbh it’s a good thing the Bombardier order had so many problems or else they wouldn’t of gotten that many sets (originally there were going to be 8 ten car trains... now there are 13)

2:25 Is That R42 An School Car Or The Retirement Train?

I moved almost a year ago, but since when does the R179 run on the A line, and since when did the R179 get 10 cars long instead of 8? First time I’ve ever seen and rode the R179 was on the J, and it was 8 cars like normal

[JustALonelyGuy-xd]

AT THE BEGINNING OF THE VIDEO THE R179 IS SUPER SHINY.

[ladyprecise]

I seen an R179 on the (A) train it was going to Far Rockaway Mott Avenue

[galoreeliteganggang]

Although the r42s are retired they will be kept as a back up fleet until 2021

[brett]

Why are there both 8-car R46s and 8-car R179s for the C?

[tholchuon]

American infrastructure moving backwards😂😂

Why did train pass through the station?
Is this an out of service train?

[chiquitasheffey]

I remember the old times of New York the R42’s are still running

[puyuma]
