you are confused. yes, 8663-8672 and 8683-8702 are all delivered... but that isnt option two. what you are thinking of is R160A-2's... not to be confused with option two. R160A-2's are part of the base order with R160A-1's. The only difference is thta the A2's are in 5 car sets, and A1's are in 4 car sets. Both A1's and A2's make the base order. now, option order 1 of R160A's (which is 9232-9592) is being delivered now. Option two was just ordered on November 10th. ask anyone else.. im right.

No. 50 cars from option 2 sets have been setup and are out from CI.
8663-8672, 8673-8692, and 8683-8702 are sets out of CI said to be running on the N, Q, and W lines. They are all Alstom.

thats not option 2... thats a R160A-2. its just a diviosion of the base order. r160a-1's are in 4 car sets and r160a-2's are in 5 car sets. all part of the base order. option 2 was ORDERED on November 10th, 2008 and wont come until 2009-2010. Option 1 of R160A is now being delivered and testing and will probably go into serivce soon.

the alstom up front makes that train faster cuz the kawasaki part of the train is pushing it to go faster

good catch
Looks like Option 2 is starting to invade the subways. Great.
