Dunno why the (W) isn't to Kings Hwy, but maybe its because of all the trains in the Montague Street Tunnel with the R and M trains, and then with all the trains on the 4th Avenue line already.
i think the W wont get r160 trains cause its a new line and theres no point of having a w train when we got the R local in manhattan and N,Q express so the W is useless so as the V
R160s are going to be on the (W) because the MTA wants to make Astoria an R160 terminal, in case a (W) train needs to change into an (N) train at Astoria because something happened to a train, with an R160 you can make that change faster.
I saw a photo of an r62 at the Kingshighway N station What time was that photo taken?

only very early in the morning or late in the evening will you have a W train run on the N line since its cars come from the Coney Island yard

You know, I wish that the W train as a R160 train can terminate Kings Hwy only during Rush Hours.
