Diving into the NYC Subway: Discover the Kawasaki R211s Differences!

We've seen a lot of great visual content on the R211s and their delivery, so we wanted to ensure we also cover the cars from the Subways IO technical angle and explain how they work. This excerpt is from our upcoming R211 breakdown, which details everything about the car class except for operations, which we've agreed not to cover for obvious reasons. Enjoy this sneak peek based on a question we get a lot. We have a lot more content coming, so hang tight-more is on the way.

Noted! We’ll definitely check the volume levels for the next releases.

I disagree. And I am someone who frequently complains about audio issues.
