Re: R46 & R160 swap between Coney Island & Jamaica rail yards.

Posted by randyo on Tue Oct 8 16:35:25 2019, in response to Re: R46 & R160 swap between Coney Island & Jamaica rail yards., posted by R33/r36 mainline on Tue Oct 8 15:00:20 2019.

It may end up that some displaced R-46s will also displace some R-68s and 68As from the Southern Division. Logically it would make the most sense to have the R-46s on lines that have changes of terminals during the course of the day like the B which alternates Bed Pk and 145 as north terminals ot eh N and W which frequently swaps equipment at Ditmars. Eventually, some R-46s will probably return to the A freeing the R-179s to go to Queens. That leaves the R-68s and 68As which would be best on lines that never change terminals like the C, the D and G where they already are, and the Q. As I mentioned in another post, considering the amenities and upgrades the R-46 received during GOH, I wouldn’t be too surprised to see the R-68s go first ahead of the R-46s.
