I'll be damned when they say "This is a manhattan bound L express train"
The L train needs more trains on the line.

Isn't that the same sound the R142A makes when it accelerates on the numbered lines?

okay
they replaced the r143's on the L&M with the R160A-1's
so where did the r143's go?

The R143s are still on the L and are mixed with R160As. The M on weekends runs R160As full time for OPTO.
