You want one to. Do you ride the train alot?

His 'sorta' was a little joke. I don't know for sure, but I heard Trainman actually works in the subway. Not sure if he's a cleaner or a car inspector or something, but I think he wears some kinda uniform. Railman, am I close?

Hopefully there'll be some slight variances in them - enough to differentiate them from the 143s and 160s - kind of like the 68's are to the 46s and 44s. May I suggest some handholds, like those that were fitted in 8713-8722 on an experimental basis? Maybe a slightly different colour interior?

Why should be any differences between them and the R-160s since they probably will (or at least should) be fully compatible with the 160s. The R-1s through 9s were basically the same car in appearance with the exception of the double pane storm door windows on the R-6s and up. The same was true of the R-26s and 28s, R-27s and 30s, and the R-29s and 33s. Some of the minor differences between the R-44s and 46s I believe had to do with improving functionality rather than just change for change's sake. The principal reason that the 68s had the differences they did from the R-44s and 46s was the MTA's decision to modify the cars to make them more graffiti resistant.

And all the 68s are single units with two operating cabs (before they were linked)
