Re: R-179 car saga... The entire fleet is Out of Service! AM rush hour...haha

Well the R179s are extremely similar to R160s which in turn are extremely similar to R143s, and those are nearly 20 years old. So the R179s aren’t really “new tech” trains any more than the R62/A and R68/A fleets were (they used then-20-year-old 1960s tech).
