R142 S Train

[YouAreABunghole]

this feels nice in stereo headphones..

[shsav2012]

this might be a layup for a yankees game becasue of the howard of post game crowds (the reason i walk to 145th street) becasue at the very start of the video you can see the train that is moving is a 4 and because you can see the frease on top of the stadium at 21 seconds in

[isaiah406]

What is that hissing/whistling sound when the train arrived?

[ExKon3]

@isaiah406 That's the sound the trains make when they come to a stop. U must not b from NYC or taking the transports. Unless you wanted an actual explanation of the sounds.

[isaiah406]

@ExKon3 .. I'm from Chicago and the trains don't sound like that.. I noticed it when I was in the city this past April.. Just curious that's all.

[ExKon3]

@isaiah406 The sounds is much louder that it almost sounds like a gun shot when teh train comes to a COMPLETE stop, usually at the last stop of its route.

[isaiah406]

@ExKon3 .. cool.. thinking of moving over in that area ... i love it everytime i visit.. just have to find out where i wanna live.

[ExKon3]

@isaiah406 U'd wonna live where its cheaper, so Brooklyn/Queens

[TheCatgirl22]

what the......... how the....... did this happen

[NycGuy2011]

@Maserati7200 I don't know about the Prospect shuttle out in Bklyn, is that the same type of train as the 42nd st shuttle and 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 ?

[4P3607]

what station was this taken at?

[RichGuy2000]

At the end there was another train in the center track coming in the other direction.

[trxtimemoney67]

[jayeol]

[TheSubwayMustango]

R142 S all day!

[TheBladeofaDemon]

at 170, the trains always sit there

[Weegee010]

I think it would be a good idea to go from the R44s to the newer trains (R142, R143, and R160B Kawasaki.)

[jonathan4ize]

did it change it sing after .

[sovetskii52]

Cool. Do you remember what it said on the side of the train? (The thing which displays the number, which line it goes along and it's destination)?

[Watchthetube2140]

Nah, didn't get a chance to look at that.

Probably said something like

S | Grand Central

S | Shuttle

[angievalefan1]

it probably said Jerome Av Shuttle

[linkroute42]

@sovetskii52 Lexington Av Exp

[litonliton62]

the S train maybe change lanes with the 4,5, or 6 train and the S couldnt stop until it gets to the red. the red light makes the train stop incase if the train doesnt stop just like the one in the video. And i thought it was the 5 train

[jashborn]

no its an S and it luuk boring

[R160BExpress]

i think these are the new shuttle lines or its just a 5 mixed with something to make it look like an S

[MADSEEN2009]

Future 42nd street Shuttle????

[TEMPLE7D]

No thats either a test train or not in service---its not going to be on the gc shuttle

[amzad89]

lmaoo

[amzad89]

wow wats the point of this???

its just a r142 with the wrong sign i guess idk

[SuperSonicFan411]

Wait Its The 5 Train

[kingnyc77]

this is a cool video an r142 with the (S) sign weird could be for the irt shuttle with they never put the r142s on that line

[pspguy4]

does that mean the r142 is like the r32 which can run on irt and bmt?

[Maserati7200]

no u idiot, the (S) is for the 42nd street shuttle. and the R32 can only run on the BMT/IND. It's too wide to run on the IRT.

[pspguy4]

the r32 should be able to run irt, it is not wide like all the other trains and it sometimes has 2 or 6 on its sign, just like the r30 were on irt/bmt/ind.

[Maserati7200]

no. The R32 is 10 feet wide. That is too wide for the IRT. period. The R32 NEVER ran on the IRT. The same case with the R30. You're wrong. Maybe you're thinking of the R33 or R36.

[mtattrain]

The only car that would be able to do that is the R39, which was never built anyway.

[mtattrain]

That's a lot of layups!
