⁴ᴷ Last Days of R142A (6) Train Service
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 тра 2018
- Recent fleet assignment changes caused the last few R142A sets stored at Westchester Yard to be moved to Mosholu Yard for (4) line service. As of May 23rd, 2018, the (6) line is made up entirely of R62A cars.

Man..I can't believe how clean those R142A's are on the 6 line. Once you see them on the 4 line, they are full of dirt, grime and dust
IKR
Enough to make a grown man cry

Chill ma man oh nah 😢
I shall remember the R142A 6 Train, even though I only rode it twice.

We will miss the R142A on the 6 =( Jerome not even maintenaning them like Westchester did
Our old friend has officially died. R142A (6) 2001-2018

Not yet. The R142A retired from the 6 and will come back on some PM rush hours to visit! Remember: PM rush hours 6 train borrows one 4 train fleet.
Minion Bay-Ohh. Thanks for letting me know
Minion Bay I agree! And it is possible for the 4 to give some of the R142as back to the 6! Like 7 sets of R142as back to the 6!
Andy Molina -True dat
This was my getaway train and still is and I've been riding the 6 line almost my whole life and now the r142a's are now gone. R.I.P my old friend
Well we got the R62As back which are far better
@@r62aguy85 for the price of losing them on the 7 line
@@r62aguy85shut it bruh R142A and R62A are better
Welp it's been fun with the R142A 6 ill miss it. #NeverForgotten I been with the R142A 6 since 2003 when i was born lol i can't wait to offically be on the (4)(7) Lines By September ill still be with the R142A's and the converted ones too.
It's okay all good things must come to an end. Even tho i am upset about it but as long as my favorite sets 7610 and 7591 are still on Lexington Avenue
Why are 7610 and 7571 your favorite is it because it looks the best?
redphone243 well no in 7610 my dad is friends with an T/O so I got to go inside the cab and then 7591 I met so many great people on that train and that’s how I have lots of friends now
#Neverfogotten
The Redbirds And R62As was my childhood days on the 6, great respect for the R142As but they now look better on the 7 as converted R188s
Chris Campbell the R142As And R188s Have the same look
I will always remember riding the R142A 6 to go to my friends penthouse.
R142 and R142A this is what it feels to be the redbird
Priscilla Fajardo LOL XD
17 years of regular R142A 6 Train. Now the 6 only uses R142A or R142 from the 4 line for mta service changes if it’s going to 149th Street Grand Concourse on the weekend.
I really don't want to say goodbye to them they were my favorite types of trains
same
Same I love R142 and R142a...
Noel's lego vids No worries. They are currently on the 4, and some of them will be reassigned to the 42nd Street Shuttle.
@@TheRailLeaguer does that mean I can finally record the 42nd St Shuttle Announcement?
@@bullymaguire6168 Unfortunately it appears that plan has been scrapped. The existing R62As will be converted into 18 6-car sets with plans for 24 R262s to come and replace the R62As (the 24 R262s for the shuttle are the only confirmed assignments for the entire car fleet).
The 4 is no big deal the real reason is because of the 7 needing CBTC service (which caused A LOT of R142As to be converted to R188s). This caused the 7 to give their R62As to the 6
BOIII3 Productions 380 cars went to the 7 line for the CBTC. As the rest of the 7 line R62As came on the line, a surplus of cars was revealed in Westchester Yard, so those last R142As went to the 4 line to bolster service and replace cars that went to the 2/5 for the increased service there. After all, Northern and central Bronx could use those NTTs from the 6.
I’m still annoyed they didn’t just keep those remaining sets on the 6 especially when this was the time period where the (6) relied heavy on extra put ins from Jerome/E 180th St yard
R142A has completed swap away from the 6 line and be moved to the 4 line and some of R142A is upgraded into R188 on the 7 line and upgraded new door motor has completed swap on R142A.
I can't believe what I've just read! I should've seen this comin', but now it's happenin'. Oh well, at least I have my uploads
Pretty much the r142a cars from the 6 train(Lexington Av Local)were brought to the corona and mosholu yards for 4 trains(Lexington Av Express)and 7 trains(Flushing At Local/Express). But, the electronic strip maps from the 6 Train has to be removed. In order to be back in service on 4 and 7 Lines.
GeometryDash FreshApple The ones that went to the 7 line are now R188s. The ones that went to the 4 line are still R142As.
Yea but they still had to remove the electronic strip map from the r142a 6 trains
GeometryDash FreshApple I know that.
Damn you MTA why you do this to us? :’(
Nothing here Because the R188 order for the 7 line called for a large amount of converted cars since it was determined that they did not need any additional cars to cover the IRT services. In addition, the R62As are not ready to be retired yet, so they swapped the R142As from the 6 line, which got back the equipment it rightfully deserves (R62As), and the R142As were given a second life as R188s. As of today, the cars are very reliable, which made Kawasaki, the builder behind the contracts, a contender for the R211 contract, which it eventually received.
they were joking the put r142a back on the 6 line
to bring these memories back of the r142a 6 train, take some r142a's from the 4 and put them on the 7, while the r188's from the 7 go to the 6. and some of the r142's on the 4 should still be used.
SonicFan '91 Can’t happen. R188s have CBTC and can only be on the 7 line. The R62As are actually more nostalgic for the 6 line since it spent the first decade or so on the 6 line.

@@TheRailLeaguer YES YES YES! YOU KILLED IT! THE R62S BEEN AROUND LONGER THAN THE R142AS, PLUS THE REDBIRDS ON THE 6 I MISS! THESE BRAINDEAD KIDS DON'T UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE 6 LINE AND ITS FLEETS!!!!!!
@@PickleRicksFATASSCOUSIN Calm down bro. This is a very minor downgrade. Its not like service has come unreliable since these cars took over.
It will be interesting if the R62A cars for the 6 train had the Howling loop sounds from the R68 D train! Who remembers those howlings loop sounds on the B and D trains?
I remember around April 2018 I went to randalls Island and then I came back to get on the 6 from 103 and I got an R142A luckily
Damn this is sad 😢, also RIP 7760, my favorite unit
7665 is now gone also (just used as the conductors area)

Lots of changes, very well organized
CTRail1996 yep
The R62As won’t be replaced until 2021 or 2025
I was born on November 11 2003 and the redbirds died on November 3 2003. WHYYYYYYYYY 😢😭
Kevin Montes maybe later than that
So the R 62 are not gonna be Retired until 2021
My Boy R142A 6 Train Shall now live the rest of his life in heaven
They on the 7 and 4 lines🤣
I like the r142a 6 trains, but i do like the r62a (6)/ trains.
I know I am late to this comment section.
Throughout my first 4-5 years of life I lived inParkchester, but my school was at 28 street station. When I went home with my mom I took the 6 train. I miss the R142A’s on the 6 line.
wish they could bring back the r142a's on the 6. in order for that to happen, take a few sets from the 4 and run them on the 6 during the day.
Why would you need that when the R62A cars on the 6 are doing just fine? 450 R62As are enough to cover all regular rush hour, midday, and evening 6 service. The only time the 6 needs R142 and R142As are when the 6 runs to 149th Street-Grand Concourse from Brooklyn Bridge.
I rode the r142a from 2015 to 2018 then I rode it again in 2019 because of service changes
RIP R142A (6)...
However, I got more emotional over R62As leaving the (7)...
Coney Island Av R188s are better but like the R142a shouldn’t have died for the 7
@@antglizzy7720 Blame MTA...
R188s aren't better, young one
Trust me . In the winter time we will see the return of a R142a on the 6 train.
Tonio guy There is still one set of R142A cars on the 6 line in Westchester yard but a lot of New Yorkers don't know that. The R142A cars will definitely return and also the Redbird trains will return. The Redbirds are the Train Of Many Colors.
Hotters 7060 There are almost enough R62As to cover the entire 6 line service for all 12 months so no need to borrow cars. As far as the Redbirds, those cars run only during special occasions.
TheRailLeaguer What do you think about the efficiency of the old Redbird trains and the R142 and R142A cars?? Which trains are stronger and more reliable???
Hotters 7060 Between Those cars, I don’t know which one is more reliable due to the lack of MBDF info for the Redbirds and the already poor condition of those cars when retirement came. However, what is known is that the R142As have the second-worst MBDF in the system, due to Westchester Yards lack of maintenance of the R142As (compare those to the R142AS converts for the 7 line and the latter looks a lot better now). The R142s are actually more efficient for 2/5 operations than the old Redbirds due to the elimination of the need to scroll through the rollsigns, saving minutes off each trip preparation for both lines. The time saved was used to add a few more trains on each line.
thats why i saw a parked r142a at burnside on the express track
Yellow Dasher789 actually
No it was a R142A 4 train I was on it this morning it was going to terminate at burnside Avenue
The 4 line getting the remaining r142a cars
NYC Trainfan yup!
The thing is I don’t mind the r142a’s on the 4, I just don’t understand why the 6 has to suffer with R62A’s. Like it was fine when the 6 had R142A’s and the 4 and 5’s had R142’s, but if you’re gonna give the R142A’s to the 4, why not give some R142’s to the 6???
@R179 F Train Well yeah not the entire fleet
On the 6 line is made the entire R62A.
Gradulation New 6 Train R142A we going to Miss so Much
As long as I've been taking the train I've never seen this 6 train model in my life
i miss R142A LETS START A PETION TO BRING THEM BACK
Why do that when the R62As are doing fine?
However, the could bring a set or two back on the condition that the trains carry no passengers.
@@TheRailLeaguer Let's all get together and let's start a Petition to bring the third ave elevated back up clairemont ave & gun Hill Rd the south Bronx is getting developed again there making room for the third ave elevated the R62As would been perfect for the third ave elevated to replace R12/14 on the third ave elevated if Robert Moses & the old governor of LaGuardia haven't torn them down like a fool what's torn down needs to get put back up again Robert Moses is no longer on this earth we shall bring the third ave Elevated back up and running God is making promises
How do you know of fleet assignment changes?
R.I.P R142A 6 trains
1:44
The only propulsion i think is the best is the R110A's
But why isn’t the MTA ordering NTTs for the 6 line, also the 1 and 3, the R62as aren’t gonna last longer, they should’ve been retired
The R32s and R42s are older than the R62s. Thats why they are focusing on those. Besides the R62/a aren't probably gonna be replaced by 2030
Well these cars are vandalized badly.
The MTA typically retires trains when they've been in service from 30-50 years, so the R62As will probably be retired around 2025.
Teacher: Okay class. Today we are going to learn how to do circle circumference.
R142 1 Train took out a loose-leaf paper and then drew a big fat meanie and then toss it to R62A 6 Train.

I heard that alot of people r complaining about the R62As on the (6) and they're getting tired of them
especially broken A/C
@@kentchin2249 They need 2 at least put 5 or 6 sets of R142As back on the 6 line
Andrew Campbell Instead of doing that, just make the R62A A/C systems more robust, and also install things like Digital interior screens showing the time, route and next stop, digital ad panels that display service changes and the map, brighter lighting, security cameras, and while you’re at it, replace the side signs with Digital LED (or whatever consumes less energy) signs showing the line bullet, it’s two terminals, and if applicable, the red diamonds or green circles denoting local or express service, all controlled by an onboard computer built into the cab, and there’s your modernization of the 6 line for you. Welcome to 2018, where anything is possible on the NYC Subway.
won't happen

Anyone think that by 2021, the R62As will finally be put off Lexington Avenue as part of the subway redesign?
Daniel Samuels The Lexington Avenue Line will get CBTC for Fast Forward. By this time, the R62As will be ready to retire, but what’s the rush?

I really miss R142A 6 train i mean when i was in the subway there were a lot of R62A 6 trains i tried finding R142A and now there gone so goodbye R142A 6 train :(
Back when the 6 had 3 trains of R142As in 2017. I would sit and wait at my home station until one came and for some reason, R142A 7600-7610 would always be the one that came to me.
Wait were they suppose to be replaced by the “R188” or “R188A” fleet? Or was that only for the 7? O whatever the mta cant keep things afloat long anyways
Randy Blü Most R142As we’re converted into R188s. 380 cars were converted and along with 126 new R188s, were solely assigned for the 7 line. The reasons for the conversions were:
Supply cars for automation of the heavily-used IRT Flushing Line
Displace R62As back to the 6 line since they did not need new cars
Bolster Kawasaki Heavy Industries track record for the R211 contract.
Fast forward to 2018, the 6 line is thankfully 100% R62As (the only piece of current IRT equipment it deserves), the 7 is 100% R188s for automation, which should be ready by 2019, and as predicted, the R211 contract went to Kawasaki due to their performance of the R160 and R188 cars.
TheRailLeaguer got it!!! Cheers

When the R142's and R142A's gets retrofitted for CBTC the conversion would play out similar to the R188's But will stay with their 10-car trains
This will Most likely happen shortly before the 2nd Option order R262's enter service I wonder how they are going to move all of the 200 R142's and 220 R142A's from Jerome Yard to 240th street Yard
There's no R142A on the (6) Line anymore since May

4-r62as
6-r142s,r142as
That’s not gonna happen. The (4) gets more R142A and the (6) will no longer get R142A
no one will ride the 6 anymore
Winson Thai Why would you say that? It’s the only line running local on Lexington Av during the day and for Pelham riders, their only subway option, so people will ride it, even with R62As.
And they remaking the R142a to R188

This is some news right here i haven't seen them use the R62As in so long, maybe about a year.

They could have put the r142s on the 7 in the first place while replacing the redbird fleet and leave the r142As on the 4 & 6 trains
Jeff Mao The R142s were in 10 car sets, so unless you wanted to cut service year round, that option was not feasible.
Besides, I’m glad they waited because with this, the 7 line will be automated, and with the R62As returning to the 6, frequency and customer service will increase since there will be extra trains for the 6 and useful LED indicators to denote Bronx local and express service (and consequently, service to Parkchester or Pelham Bay respectively).
They can't do this to r142a's they can't I won't let them
same
Noel's lego vids Don’t worry. You can still catch them on the 4, and soon, the 42nd Street Shuttle.
These are some old NTT units so they have to go at some point
JeremiahC99 Yes & Besides You Can Catch R188’s.
Wow it kind of feels like a jinx (with the swapping of these cars) because of the film: "The Taking of Pelham 123". At least leave one R142A for the memorie's of that film (loool).
Kai Freeman Why do that when they can just buy the movie online. Besides, the MTA wants to consolidate the parts inventory for the IRT Yards, so its better if there be no R142As on the 6 line now that they have the R62As.
In addition, the R142a in the film for the most part was not a real R142A. It was actually a retrofitted R62A to give it the appearance of an R142A for exterior filming, and the interior of the cars was filmed on a Queens set that resembled an R160. They did not use an actual R142A since they could not operate as single units. The only time they used a real R142A was during the beginning of the film during the scene when John Travoltas character was hijacking the train at a station, which by the way, was filmed on the IRT Flushing platforms at Grand Central on the then-Times Square-bound Track.
Did the propulsion just sneeze at 1:42 ?
Subway Childhood destroyed. Nice going MTA. The R62’s are on the 6 to isolate dwell times on Lexington, yet the 3, an express train on 7th, uses r62’s. Pretty hypocritical.

MTA: “How dare you assume it”
Who else wants the R110A/B's back
I wasn't even born when those were tested but I liked the unique announcements/door chime I heard on the YT video.
Those were only prototype trains from the 1990’s. No way are they building more. They only made one set of those, and that was it. Plus they had mechanical issues, where an R110B caught fire.
Me
MEEEEE
Also if not it could use R188s Like The 7
Yeh true...
They can't
R188s are only on the 7 line
But you know the MTA does a lot of service changes to car assignments
One question I have, why couldn’t the 7 line have just taken half the number of R142As it took from the 6 line and the other half from the 4 line??? (Yes, this would have meant R62A 6 AND 4 trains) 🤔🤔
That cant happen for various reasons.
@@AuroraQ46 (Sorry IF LATE REPLY) Maybe because the R62A on the 7 line have some single car sets. The two 5 Car Trains to make 10 cars would be given to the 4 line BUT the R62A single cars may have had the 7 line strip map (not electronic) to make 11 cars, and the MTA converted most R62A single cars into 5 car sets just like the R33 and R36 cars were 2 car sets arranged five times to make 10 car sets + single cars for 11 car (7) Trains. Thats why it may not be possible.
I really reminded that
Isn’t there one left that runs on rush hour only ??
that was the set. It is now on the 4 line
MiltonR62Productions wow that’s just sad 😢 why did the 4 line get the rest ??
There are Equipment changes. MTA wants the (6) to be completely R62A and the R142A's had no where else to go and i know they could of stayed but the (4) i guess needed them more.. Well blame the (5) line for this. since some of there R142's went out of passenger service the (4) had to give up some R142 sets and then the (4) needed some R142A's because they didn't wanna be less on trains. So thank the (5) if this didn't happen we would still have 6 sets of R142A's running on the (6) today.
Care to explain why some R142's went out of passenger service if you know?
Some R142's needed to be repaired and had issues with the Air Conditioner and brake issues
Well, atleast this set is cleaned! Jerome does not take care of their R142As!
7600-7610 was cleaned by westchester yard on the last week it was operating on the 6 line before transferring out.
I miss r142a 6 train I been ride in since I was a baby my mom take me
they are back
get one on while they're still here
r.i.p r142a 6 train 2001 2018
And now the 7 is all R188 and the 6 is all R62
Meh fare is still too damn high
R62 is on the 3 line.
They need the 6 train models to be a R160A and R160B instead of R62"s
mike liburd R160s can’t run on the A Division. Here’s how the car assignments should be for the 2, 4, 5, and 6 lines:
(2): R142 6301-6720 (shared with 5)
(5): R142 6721-7140 (shared with 2)
(4): R142 7141-7180, 1101-1250. R142A 7591-7810
(6) R62A 1651-1900, 1961-2150.
That is better for fleet uniformity.
Why would they go to the 4 service?! No MTA don’t do this, bring back more R142As back from the 4 to the 6. Whats wrong with 6 having R142As? The MTA plans terribly. When a new train comes out it should replace the old 1980s cars. MTA bring back NTTs for local trains. I bet people are mad on commutes now on the 6. Just turn the R62As into work trains.
Its too late buddy.
Transportation and Gaming that’s it I’m going to find another subway to like or a different line on the MTA or still like the 6 Line. I will still like the 7 and the R188s. But I will miss the NTT Local trains on Lexington Avenue Line. No other Subway would remove new cars for old ones.
redphone243 true
Transportation and Gaming The MTA should start retiring the R62/As in the 2020s and invest on a new model maybe the R212 and has walkthrough gangways.
redphone243 I agree!
Although i get why they no linger run on the line, it has to be kind of like a step forward then 2 steps back.
Randy Blü It’s actually a step forward with this swap since the R62As now have the LED indicators to denote local and express service, which is a boon for those who live along the Pelham Line.
TheRailLeaguer i know, its funny i moved back into the area where i need to utilize this train line.
Randy Blü All you see on the 6 line now is R62As with those LED lights. Prepare for the extra service coming in April 2019
5 years and a CBTC later.
Hey it's not really true the r142s are still young only 20 years old
R160 F Train: Man. What a hot day. I think I might as well go to Starbucks and get a coffee.
As he was on his way he met R142 2 Train.
R142 2 Train: Hello R160 F Train.
R160 F Train: Hello R142 2 Train is Starbucks opened today?
R142 2 Train: Yes it is. And also R160 N Train told me that he wanted to see you and have a talk with you. But don't worry you're not in trouble he just need to tell you something.
R160 F Train: Ok see him and then come back for some coffee.
R142 2 Train: Follow me. I'll take you to him.
R160 F Train followed R142 2 Train to R160 N Train.
R160 N Train: Hello R160 F Train please to meet you I just want to let you know that your brother R46 F Train is retiring soon also The R211 will be coming up in the future that will be your new brother.
R160 F Train: Oh wow okay well um let's go to Starbucks for some coffee.
Everyone agreed and went to Starbucks.
Bring R142A back to 6 train
Nelson Why do that when there are enough R62As to cover all 6 line service, plus a few extra trains for more service. Plus, the 6 deserves the R62As, while Flushing riders can treat themselves with the R188s to support the growing ridership in the growing neighborhoods of Flushing, Corona, etc.
Yet again everyone is crying like shitty brats over R62s taking over the 6 line while I'm crying over the redbirds
Yea omg im just wait its the 7 announcment right when i heard it i was like wait what its 7 and then the second time nope nvm its the 6
I'm waking up, to ash and dust.....
Its soooo hard to say goodbye to yesterday

R142>R142A
moscow subway> nyc subway
LOOK WHAT YOU AMERICANS MADE ME DO
That’s BS At least keep that one set
Zeide Ankrah why ? It makes sense to put it either on the 4 line or 7 line logic.
Naw. we had to let it go! Westchester Yard was not taking care of it properly and Jerome Yard is better so i think it was a good decision! plus why have 1 set when we can get a few more it doesnt make sense to have 1 if we cant have half
It really is disgusting to see those shitty r62as back on the 6. the 6 line will never be the same without those r142As aka the reliable advanced ntt
Elias Bullock Don’t worry. It’s just a minor downgrade. No big deal. Reliability and frequency will increase with the R62As.
Elias Bullock We will all get used to it, just like everyone on the Pelham Line is.
JeremiahC99 i'll remember the r62as when they are on the 7 line cause to me and most railfanners, the r62as rocked on the 7. they suck on the 6
