The V train may be gone but it shall always live on right here ---> ❤
like if you miss the old trains
Fuck MTA, they should bring back the V Line, 9 Train, and Brown m train and Orange Q
@@bullymaguire6168 sorry that ain’t gonna happen
9 train: it was a failed subway line. The skip stop service was hated by many 1 train riders
V train: For the most part decent. Although it was basically F train running local in queens and on a shorter route to Manhattan. The M train does a better job now and the V train has no more purpose on the 6th Avenue line
Brown M train: Another useless line it was basically J trains running via Myrte Ave and outside rush hours it’s basically a glorified shuttle.
And don’t even COMPLAIN ABOUT THE ORANGE Q it’s was just a temporary service when the Manhattan bridge was being repaired.
The MTA will not restore useless train lines to satisfy nostalgia fanboys like you
@@bullymaguire6168 The orange M is a very popular to the crowded L train
Williamsburg, Bushwick ,Bedford-Stuyvesant riders prefer midtown service and if you look at the changing demographics in you see that Williamsburg, Bushwick Bedford-Stuyvesant, is demanding more midtown service ever since the M train was rerouted to 6th ave and Nassau st ridership is very low I mean like 50% of the line is abandoned and people often transfer at Essex st Canal st Chambers st and Fulton st to uptown trains to get to midtown heck at Broadway junction you see the majority of J/Z riders transferring to the A/C and/or L trains for midtown service.
Back then Most brown M train rider got off at either Myrtle Wyckoff avenue to transfer to the L train to get to midtown and/or got off at Essex st to transfer to the F train. Routing the M train via 6th ave line greatly reduced crowding. And if riders want to get to lower Manhattan they can just transfer to the J/Z trains instead. And if 4th ave and west end needs more service, just extend rush hour W trains to Brooklyn bay pway instead. I mean some W train head to Brooklyn to get to a train yard anyway.
@@Amiri_Francis oh so you are probably 9. Shut it nostalgia hater. Your jealous we even got to ride the V line
@@bullymaguire6168 dude he has a point no reason to hate but like for any reason some service or something ends then they should just put the v on for example maybe for extra service put the v with the g bring it back, to 2 nd Avenue and go back to 71st continental easy
I've been to NYC in 2009 but how can I not remember the V train....
It’s actually with the B/D/F Trains.
And it’s from Sixth Avenue Line.
@@robloxgamingrailfanner420 B/D/F/M lines
Jaziel reacts epic and cta 2200 series cars, the orange M wasn’t used when the V train was running
@@robloxgamingrailfanner420 oh so it was still brown
A decade ago this time the final V train arrived at Forest Hills. R.I.P :(
(V) train is gone. Damn. I still like that train.
Makai Hassan Rhamdas me too😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😁😁😁😭😭😭😁😭😭😭😁😭🤔😭😫😣😣😣😣🥺😩😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I'm crying I love that train
+Tanisha Coulibaly THE V WILL COME BACK IN 2016
Ehem, 2050.
6 Train Productions, I would be dead actually.
Same
2019, ten years ago, this young service died, now it is 2020, I still miss it though, mistakes in the announcements showed you ghostly signs of me, even the first days of the return of the W train still said you, till they were updated, I miss you, V train.
Oh no R.I.P 2001-2010
V train
Maybe the V returns but whats good is that the W is back and the R line was so slow and G should go back to Forest Hills.
ItsDavidTubeHD or I want it to run Jamaica 179-Church Avenue
Both can work but only during late night to avoid congestion
Didn’t you see it’s permanently discontinued
@@yuxinzheng6720 my old self said that I realized what would happen if the V was to be restored
I Want The M Train To Be A Brown Color Again Because I Had So Many Good Memories With The Brown M Train.
Eric Court I like mta so v Brown m has so many memories but mta did not care
Foxy49gamer Yeah they did. The “cut” turned out to be a rationalization that should’ve been implemented immediately from the start of the Christie Street Connection changes.
The mta is so cheap
Clorox Bleach However, this was one of those changes that actually did increase ridership. In fact, when they considered that change, 22,000 passengers on the old M transferred to Midtown and only 17,000 people were going to Lower Manhattan. Only 10,000 people were going into Southern Brooklyn, and I’m pretty sure that the train was carrying tumbleweeds on the West End Line. Now, not only did ridership increase, station registrations were redistributed along the line, showing that rather then journey to the L for Midtown, Ridgewood and Middle Village residents would instead enter at a station closest to their homes and ride the M straight into Midtown.
Clorox Bleach, MTA usually earns money very fast if lots of passengers come uses MetroCard for the NYC Subway, Metro-North Railroad, NYC Bus, Long Island Rail Road, and Staten Island Railway.
Also, I missed the (G) train going to 71st Ave from Smith 9th. Now it's Church Ave to Court Square
Makai Hassan Rhamdas wait Smith 9st was the last stop
@@n3ptvne790 used to
Clorox Bleach *Yes, that is true.*
Nice, I never rode this line. I heard of this line back in 2010 but I always rode 2 train.
5:39 that’s one beautiful train!!🤩🤩
thats one beutiful lady
6:09 Departing With such GREAT POWER
Brown (M) train is back. Now they put the R42s on the (M) Shuttle from Mrytle Wyckoff to Metropolitan Avenue.
(W) train is also back running regular service between Whitehall Ave to Astoria-Ditmars
Orange 6th Avenue (M) train are now stopping at Broadway Junction
I still like the Orange (M) train & the (V) train. RIP to the (V)
Love your selection of song . The Verve-Bittersweet Symphony
Thanks!!!
Thanks!
V train I wish I rode you before but I never even seen a V before so R.I.T.R.F.A.H.P rest in the rails and a have peace
R.O.T.R.F.T/Rest on the rails forever train
The V has to come back to 6 av, the M must return to being brown and help the D again, and make the G go down Queens Blvd again. We could really use this. The only thing I'm glad about is that the W is back
William R.F. Exactly
William R.F. the orange (M) Train is stupid and the route makes no sense at all the (V) Train should've been kept even the brown (M) Train. Plus the (V) Train should be the last stop in 169th Street with the (G) and (R) Train's in Hillside Avenue local and the (E) and (F) Train's should run express in Hillside Avenue exept late nights. Also the (E) and (F) Train's should be the last stop in Jamaica 179th Street. The (E) Train shouldn't be the last stop Jamaica Center Person Artcher Avenue with the (J)/(Z) Train's.
Cesar Salas then how will people ride the f train to brookly
Fnaf Fan yt and more the (G) Train can go to Kings Highway being the last stop in Brooklyn Culver line also the (G) Train go to Rockaway Park Beach 116th Street with the (A) Train and go back to Queens Boulevard Line up to 63rd Drive Rego Park
E Z Borenstein okay
V! Come back now!
N Train The M train IS the V train.
N Train MTA, V Train is still on role but it’s not used.
Never seen a R32 V train in my life
Play this at my funeral so Emotional :(
The V train is basically a clone of the F train. Sure it goes to Forest Hills like the M train but it doesn't have its own endpoint in Manhattan. The M train has its own endpoint in Metropolitan Avenue.
Well the V has an end at 2 av
W
The w train is coming back because of the q train but the brown m train is also coming back because the d train needs help bringing people so the v train will return in 2016
+William Beresford There are videos of v restoration but no news that i know of
well at least the W came back
Only the W
joeyjet625 where is it then?
it would come back just wait. the A train is getting mostly the R179's and some other lines too. so when the v train comes back it will have R46's and R160's so we just have to wait for the R179's to come
The V never left,but the M did.
yep
what?
Oh man
If the V line still existed today it’d be running only R160s since QBL is equipped with CBTC and the V goes through QBL.
13 years ago, who still here?
that's a great song. bring back the V, and make the culver express on rush-hours in brooklyn.
ThePandaTrain7 This is something I have proposed. My version has it run the same route as the F, but would run via Culver Express to Church Avenue, then local to Avenue X, which would be rebuilt with a crew facility and better yard leads. This would allow for 12 trains per hour operation on the F and V. You can turn around 12 trains per hour on the middle pocket track at Kings Hwy, where crew facilities exist, but you would be running on a tight schedule with very little leeway. It would be better to turn the trains around at a better location.
The V would replace the M on 6th Avenue. Instead, with a small connection across the heart of Soho, the M would be moved to the 8th Avenue Line (which runs under capacity) with the E. In addition, the E would also be rerouted over the Bridge to Broadway Junction, allowing for J service to Lower Manhattan to terminate at a rebuilt Essex Street. C service would move to the express tracks south of 145th Street, and also swap with the D north of that point to retain express service on each branch.
On Queens Blvd, to better serve passengers, the E and K would occupy the express tracks and the F and V would take the local. Extended G service would supplement the F and V. Past Union Turnpike, the E and F would take the Archer Avenue Line (to be extended) and the G, K, and V would take Hillside, with the K going farther out on an extended Hillside Avenue Subway to Springfield Blvd.
The R would be taken off the Queens Blvd Line and replace N service to Astoria. The N would be rerouted up the Second Avenue Subway. To accommodate 24 trains per hour on the R and W combined, the Astoria Line will get extended to LaGuardia Airport. At the other end, the R and W would, via another new tunnel, join the Fulton Local tracks and replace C service on the local tracks. The C would be express to Lefferts Blvd in Queens. The R would go to Euclid Avenue and the W, via another new tunnel and one that will replace the elevated structure over Fulton Street, would take over J service to Jamaica Center. The J would replace R service to 95th Street.
ThePandaTrain7 and the F train to be like the S train
It happened
@@TheRailLeaguer Might as well be the W train via Broadway being the supplementary service on queens blvd as least it heads to Manhattan and have a high ridership level. The G train was never popular service on queens blvd and ridership was very low cause the ridership is heading to Manhattan not Brooklyn. The W via queens blvd does create an interlocking but as least you avoid an unnecessary interlocking with the G train which no one will take as they just wait for a F/V instead. But deinterlining would work
@@Amiri_Francis My plan for the other Queens Blvd services was to install a new switch between Court Square and Queens Plaza to allow for G trains to terminate on the Forest Hills-bound local track for better connections to Manhattan-bound trains. However, I am looking for other options for G and R trains, especially during nights and weekends.
The v Train IS the best in world of MTA
+William Beresford nope v Traín is the best bruh
why didn’t yall ride it then?
V train R160 makes sort of sense b/c the thing on the side is ORANGE get it?
Cancer joke, but good
RIP V H K 9 And T trains
I hope 1 returns
V was included on rollsigns long before service actually started. It was always supposed to be an extra 6th Avenue local service that came with the introduction of the 63rd Street Tunnel.
The original service pattern had the E and F running express via 53rd Street while the R ran local via 60th Street and the G ran local directly into Brooklyn. The service pattern with the V left the E and R unchanged. The F was rerouted via the 63rd Street Connection and the V took it's place on 53rd Street. To make room for V trains, the G had to terminate at Court Square and was originally planned to do so at all times. This ended up being a service cut for local station riders, so it was decided to run the G to Forest Hills on evenings, late nights, and weekends when the V was not running.
The benefit of having the V was it sent an extra 9 trains per hour into Manhattan and provided local station riders direct access to 53rd Street, but the problem was it made the E the only express via 53rd Street. The immediate impact was that crowding was significantly reduced on F and R trains, but had actually gotten worse on the E. As people got used to the new service pattern, it actually got better than it was before. I think the V service pattern (now with the M) is much better than having the old one, but they really should either run the M during evenings and weekends, or send the G back to Forest Hills during that time so the R isn't the only local service on Queens Boulevard.
Collin Parsons no extra QB service can run on weekends while there is CBTC construction going on. The way service is running right now the E F and R each run 5 TPH when there is a weekend disruption
I mean during normal service pattern after CBTC is installed. I'm surprised they can only run 5 tph each. Assuming they have to all run on 1 track, they should be able to get at 8 each.
Collin Parsons A better idea is to straight up deinterline Queens Plaza. How? First up, remove the goddam R from Queens Blvd. who’s even going to Broadway from there? It makes no sense.
Instead, reroute the R to Astoria and move the N to 96th Street. From there, you also move the current M route to 63rd Street with the F, followed by moving the C to 8th Avenue express from Canal to 145th Street, then operate along Concourse to 205th Street, while D service goes via 8th Avenue local from 59th Street to 168th Street. Now you can create the K route on Queens Blvd, which would operate from 71st Avenue to World Trade Center vía Queens Blvd Local, 53rd Street, and 8th Avenue Local.
While you create one somewhat avoidable interline, you eliminate 4 needless ones and allow for train speed increases in the rest of the system. Plus from almost any station from 71st Avenue to 36th Street, one can go to either 8th Avenue or 6th Avenue.
New infrastructure in Queens would also support deinterlining the Queens Blvd Line in a good way, as well as new connections in Manhattan to deinterline 6th Avenue and Nassau Street.
Branden Rios Why are you so obsessed with Broadway service on Queens Blvd? It’s not like it’s needed. With my plan for E F express and K M local on Queens Blvd, if one needs access to the Broadway Line, they can take the F and M to Lexington-63rd Street and transfer to the N and Q, or just stay on the train to a nearby station.
However, the installation of crossovers north of Court Square Can allow for the G to terminate at Queens Plaza on the Forest Hills-bound local track, which should allow easy access to the Queens Blvd Line.
R.I.P. V TRAIN
the V and W still live on on rollsigns and occasional trains in the yards with the rollsign set to it.
It seems like the most of the R32, R42, the R40, R40M, R38, the V and the W train all died at once.
4P3607, Can’t believe the V and W Trains got retired on the same day.
The W got back
I want to cry
that's the reason why they are making the 2av line so the q train can stick around with the T train up to 125st
RIP V Train I Wish it came bac Back but its sad that the took the v train out its never gonna be seeing again
Goodbye V train.
My life goes done with this line....R32s-R40s for life
Sad, i'll miss the V train.
YELLOW (D) Train How Will The 2 Avenue subway Connect To The J M Z Line using 2 Avenue on the F??
Nina Rivas, Yellow D Train was in the 1970s.
It Was Sad When. The R160 (V) Train Left Forest Hills-71st Avenue @ 12:30 AM On Saturday June 26th,2010.
Richie Verdi since the w is back, the broadway line will be back to normal, but i want the orange m on overnights to essex street and metropolitan avenue. that would be better. right?
TheForsakenGamer25 That would be good, but seriously, is thee a demand for overnight M service to Essex? How many people coming from Essex transfer to the M at Myrtle during the overnight hours? Is it significant to warrant an extension?
@@TheRailLeaguer Not really but the MTA needs to just extend the Weekend M train to Chambers Street Essex Street ain’t fit to be a terminal station
@@Amiri_Francis Perhaps it could work, though if they wanted to, they could have the M run to Forest Hills during the weekends too. I have this proposed in some fashion in my Nassau-8th Avenue connector plans.
@@TheRailLeaguer Well the things is that is ridership high enough to justify having four routes in queens blvd during weekends or any line for that matter. Cause at most during weekends there’s three routes on branch lines during weekends. If we deinterline and make it so that the R goes to Astoria and W goes to Forest hills. The M train could become the main local on queens blvd this also gives Williamburg an alternative to get to midtown during weekends without having to transfer at Essex Street or use the INSANELY CROWDED L train
;( After 8 1/2 years of using the V trains, I simply will miss the V train. Farewell V, farewell!
Damnnnnn I was in college when this happened. And before that I grew up in the suburbs. I never knew there were a V or W train. I wish I had a chance to experience riding them....
Well, there’s good news and bad news.
For the good news, the W returned.
For the bad news, the V didn’t return.
V ran from Lower East Side 2 av to Forest Hills 71 Continental Avenue
The V train is one of the most powerful trains of all Rip 😭
@mtattrain Oh ok. I first heard that song at my high school's graduation, it played at the one before mine and the one after. hearing it again made me want to use it as the choice of music for the video. It goes really well with the pictures and the footage, very sentimental in my opinion.
Rest In Peace V
Not only have I been on the last W (even though its coming back) in 2010 i will always keep the V with me every time i went to my Aunts job in queens we would always catch the (V) train because it had the 42s and 32s i love this line to the very end when the last (V) left 71st St Continental man I miss this line but hey it exists in the winter holiday time when they run the Holiday train to 2nd ave lower manhattan to 71st continental
R.I.P V train 2001-june 28 2010
NJ transit Comet V productions, Actually, V Train was discontinued on June 26, 2010. Which was the same day the W Train got discontinued.
2 trains discontinued on 1 day, that's harsh
Ah, someone that replied 4 years later
I Miss The (V) Train
Jenny Court is never comeing back never again R.I.P to all V train
Now there's orange M trains now
Orange M trains were born in 2010 whan the V trains were R.I.P
R.I.P V trains 2001-2010
I really miss the v train i to it when i was 5 and 6 and now in 14 years old now in 2019😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😥😥😥😥😥😥
THE (V) TRAIN WILL COME BACK AROUND THE 2010's DECADE
it sad ........
@mtattrain The song name's in the notes.
nice video!!!
I've ride the v train in the last day when I was 5 or 4
R.I.P V train you will be missed 😪😔😞
I will miss you v train
Me too
The V seemed like a great line, but I never got to ride it. And I heard that the brown M was the best. RIP V train, 2001-2010. If the W train can come back to service, so should the V, and the M train should go back to being brown.
5:25 One true fact is that the V train didn’t make it before the Lafayette street transfer opened for 6th Avenue trains to connect to both the Uptown and Downtown 6. Back when the V train ran, free transfers at Lafayette Street were only connected to the Brooklyn Bridge bound 6 train, you’d have to exit the station to connect to the Uptown platform. The hive artwork did not exist yet.
Just because the W came back doesn’t mean the V should too. The Orange M has become a rather popular service, with ridership growing since the change was made. What they should do is construct come new track connections and have Lower Manhattan service terminate at Essex Street. Service in Brooklyn currently used by the J and M would be replaced by new Midtown service.
Happy 11 year anniversary to the final V train
I never rode on there, but I miss them on the train speakers, even if I'm not there in nyc at the moment
R.I.P We will Miss U. 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I never taken a ride of the v Train because I wasn’t born yet so if the v Train is back in service i will feel emotional and happy at the same time just like the brown m train r32 and abandoned stations and redbird and bluebird should come back just like the v and all the lost Trains so please mta bring the lost Trains and train cars 😢😭mta will be liked a lot we will never forget you LRG5784 edit: my brother posted it
R.I.P. V train
2001-2010
The (V) Train Had R32's Why Can't The Orange (M) Train Have The R32's From The (A)/(C) Train Line So It Would Be New JMZ R32's Since The R42's Retiring Soon (2017).
I never rode the v train but the mta took it off
I took it when I was little, I just didn’t remember that, I took the V when I was a baby
Me too
I miss the V train
RIP V Train 2001-2010
R.I.P V
so long V train😢😢😢😢😢
I loved the v train but now........R.I.P v train 😢
@mtattrain Thanks.
R.I.P R42 and V train
People say that these 3 trains will come back but here we are in may 2016 with no news
Also I actually saw the V train with an R160 in 2014 yes it was true I saw with my own eyes
What...? it... it... nah...
I stand by corrected the W is back
rip V train :( 😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵
@revrunnertech2772Wow you sure said a mouthful there!!!
I remember the last (V) train leaving 2 ave
Rip v train 😢
The R160s Only Been On The A/V Line For About 2 Months.
OH SHIT AS SOON AS I CLICKED THIS VID I HEARD THIS SONG THE BEAST!!
R.I.P (V)
Wow well the V train as been replaced by the M train beacuse the M train have been more longer than the V train🙁
Noooooo V train gone bring it back
The (V) Train Still Have R160A But 4 Cars Sets & 8 Cars Sets But As The Orange (Murder).
The V looks cool at first sign but then you realize if it came back to service in 2019 it will just be a smaller (M) line unless the MTA reroutes the (V), since the (V) will just stop at 2 Avenue while the (M) stops many more stops away from the (V) making having it back (unless a new route) useless.
A Local Freight Car Dubbing and other bs. Since capacity of the 6th Avenue local tracks is approximately 28 trains per hour, this limits how many trains you can run. Though CBTC can fix this, there are other good plans worth considering:
One of my favorite plans is a fast connection between Nassau Street Line and the 8th Avenue IND via Spring Street, as well as a tunnel connecting the Broadway Line with the Fulton Street Line and then to the Jamaica Line. With this, I originally allowed for the M to move over to the under-capacity 8th Avenue Line, allowing for the C to be express. This service would become the K. However, with my revised plans, both the E and K would stop using World Trade Center and be rerouted to go into Brooklyn via the Williamsburg Bridge, taking over the J/Z train. The E would travel to Metropolitan Avenue and the K to Broadway Junction. The J would be shortened to Essex Street. The C would be express in Manhattan, and also swap north of 59th Street so that the A and C be express and the B and D local. Both pairs would branch off so each branch would have express service. All seven services would operate at 12 trains per hour.
This allows for extra service on the Culver Line. This would be in the form of the V, operating between Forest Hills-71st Avenue and Kings Hwy vía QB local, 6th Avenue Local, and weekday Culver Express north of Church Avenue. The G would remain unaffected. All three services would operate at 12 trains per hour.
Queens Blvd would see some deinterlining at the 63rd Street connection. With the signal modernization of the line to CBTC, the E and K would be express out to Jamaica and until an extension of the Queens Blvd Line to Springfield Blvd and the Archer Line is also extended to Rosedale, the F and V would terminate at 71st Avenue. Past 71st Avenue, the K would switch to the local tracks and run local to 179th Street (this is one move I dislike) while the E would make a straight run on the express tracks to Jamaica Center. The G would also supplement the line to 71st Avenue. All 5 services would operate at 12 trains per hour so that there would 24 Express trains and 36 local trains per hour on one track (maximum capacity with CBTC ops is 40, but due to crowding and some of the merging, this is unsustainable). Further changes to the corridor may grow out of developing plans for both the Second Avenue Subway and a potential Queens Bypass and other projects.
With this, the R would be rerouted back to Astoria, while also being rerouted to Fulton Street. To handle increased capacity, the line would also extend to LaGuardia. As such, the R would operate to Euclid Avenue and the W to Jamaica Center. Both would make the C train express in Brooklyn and out to Lefferts Blvd, allowing for additional A service to Far Rockaway. The J would also be extended to 95th Street. All services would run at 12 trains per hour.
The only stations losing service under this plan are Alabama Avenue, Van Siclen Avenue, Cleveland Street, Norwood Avenue and Crescent Street. These stations sit on an antiquated structure over Fulton Street. Three new stations would be built on the new Jamaica Avenue Subway and will be torn down.
Bye Bye V train 🥺
I never seen the 9 v and w trains by the way i love the song
Well if they come back, you might see them.
So much memories
I wish The V,W,and brown M trains returned to the subway
Adam Margolang Well in my Nassau-8th Avenue connection plans, I intend to use the V for a Culver Express service. To make room, M service would be rerouted to 8th Avenue. C service would be express.
i miss it❤ to

The W V and the Nassau st M are coming back after the T is brought back
GeneralHawk505 what about the 9train
