MTA NYCT R42 (J) Chasing R160A (M) Into Myrtle Broadway Express!!

[0517jaden]

hey did u know they had a R143 m train?

[mysteryman557]

wow, you caught 2 R42s, thats rare on the eastern division now

[R160A]

Looks like in the near future, we might see R46s on the Boradway-Myrtle local. The MTA is proposing to scrap the M and extend the V to Metropolitan Avenue

[Krisricky627]

@R160A R46s won't run on the Eastern Division because they are 75 foot cars. The new route will use 60 footers meaning that the M-V should be mostly R160s (from the old M).

[R160A]

@Krisricky627 Thanks for the correction. Almost forgot the R46s were 75 footers. lol

Actually, the (V) is being replaced now.

[R160A]

@mtattrain Yes, I heard. (M)s to 71st-Continental and a change of color from brown to orange
