Wow, really feels like an end of an era, as my home station for the last 6 years has been on the G. However, this is one line that could really benefit from the R160's, for two reasons. #1 because it can be made perfectly clear when boarding whether or not my train is going to Queens or not (and face it, half of the time the R46 displays don't tell you the correct info, since C/R and especially OPTO T/O's never update them for the Queens-bound trip) and #2 when operating on OPTO, the announcements will be made for the T/O, so he has one less thing to do = less dwell time at stations.

Of course, I realistically understand that the only reason that R160 was running is because it was a rerouted F train, and that the normal weekend G service is not going to be running 160's anytime this year.
