Extra R32 cars at Jamaica Yard?

With the transfers of all R32 Phase I cars to Jamaica Yard from Pitkin Av and with some R32 Phase II remaining there, it looks like Jamaica Yard will see increase on subway cars due to that the G train will be extended to Church Av, so my opinion is they will use the extra R32 cars on the F and R lines and transfer some R46 cars from the F and R lines to the G line for this extended service to Church Av.

Look, first of all there is no plains RIGHT now to extened the G to Church Ave, so Stop it. The next time that it MIGHT happen is next pick that sould start in December.

From what I heard the other day is that the V line will start using R32's as early as today. Also there is plains to send at least 3 maybe 4 train of R46's to Concourse Yard for the B as temporary move until the option oreder for D arrives.

This mean the D is gonna get R160s now?


On another note, I did see a lot of R32s on the R this weekend...

No I have heard it from a few people in the know that this might be whats going to happen in the next few weeks. If it does then good, if it does not then good. I just put here what I have been hearing, that's it.

I thought the V MUST have the R46's because they break those sets up into G trains for overnight service? They can't do that with the R32's so how is this possable?

Also why is the D line getting 160's now? I thought the Q line was getting them next?

The B line getting the R46? What yard would maintain them?

I do not think the (D) is going to have the R160B, I do think that Jamaica would keep the phase II R32's and The R46 on the (B) That would be cool but I will wait until it comes.

Perhaps what might happen is this, R68`s from Coney Island [B,Q,W,N] to Concourse for the D & R46`s to the B until the 160`s arrive for the Q & the 68A`s go over to the B ?

I heard nothing about that on my end.

And I doubt that JYD can spare 3 or 4 trains of R46s. They can barely make full service in the AM.

Why would concourse need more R68s? Why would CI need extra R46s?

Personally, R46 trains are far more comfortable than R32s in terms of ride quality, far less noisy, more favorable seating configuration, far more readable front and rear end signage, etc.
