[Weegee010]

these trains, also the R143s have a FIND system, right?

[FTrain4750]

the face ends look a little R32 like.

[FTrain4750]

lol u got spammed by someone i guess they beg to differ from you.

[thesubwaynut]

that's a really long platform you got there

[JW72093]

Was there a Yankees game around the time you taped

this?

[MustangFan424]

Yes there was, and I was one of the people going to it, lol.

[lelefro54]

just a question, how much time does it takes for that train to get to the next station?? or other stations?

[bcd62092]

I think 1 minute to get to 167 Street, and it's 1-2 minutes for every station on that line (IRT Jerome Avenue line in the Bronx). For stations a short distance apart, such as Fordham Road to Kingsbridge Road or Mosholu Parkway to Woodlawn, it's probably only 1 minute. For longer distances, such as Kingsbridge Road to Bedford Park Blvd, then I would say it's 2 minutes.

This is only on Jerome and other similar lines. In other areas you have other variables such as larger crowds, bridges, tunnels.

why is it using r142a, doesn't 2 and 4 trains only use r142

[JW72093]

The (4)uses both R142 and R142A even though you see

R142 more often on the (4).The (2)and(5)use only R142

and the (6)uses only R142A

[volcom713]

wait, 5 sometimes uses r142a right?

[kendu1212]

no the 5 train is all r-142

[D3Andr3]

The 5 does use 4s R142A's once in a blue moon

[nizaralvarez1943257]

the 5 uses R142A's only when the R142's

are broken down(as usual).
