Another R211 set enters service on the (B)ravo

Posted by italianguyinsi on Wed Jan 14 20:13:27 2026

3655-3664 entered service on the Bravo.

This makes 14 MU trains out of 26-28 needed for service.

What are they doing with all the freed-up R68s and R68As?

Putting them on the N/Q/W. This frees up the R46s to be scrapped, but they haven't been doing that yet. For that matter, the Pitkin R46s haven't been scrapped yet either. It makes me believe they don't have a plan or contract to do that.

Look at how many are in pink awaiting disposal.

So I see the ex-500 (now 6169) and 1278 (now 6258) are in the "pink" list. So that makes those produced in-between, that are still around, still active.

Every car is listed in order of the current number. I don't get your comment. Almost none in that upper range of 6169-6258 are still active. The original numbers are pretty meaningless.
