    Very entertaining AND informative. Wish there were more like it. I kind of gave up on this sort of thing after R-46. I used to love knowing the difference between 44s and 46 just by a half second glance. There were so many differences, especially before the rebuilding of each fleet. The original R-46 with its lightweight truck was very different. People don't realize what a tragic setback it was when they were forced to have conventional heavy weight trucks put in. Also, the propulsion system had a mode called wayside regulated, meaning the train was operated manually, but power would be increased automatically to maintain a set speed, even if going uphill. The controler handle, which looked like the top of mom's electric iron, would face 12 o'clock. Turn it to 3 o'clock and you would be in waysinde manual and you would slide it up for power (with stops at swithcing, series, parallel). Swing it to 9 o'clock and you would be in wayside regulated (with stops at 10, 20 ... 70, 80). I'm pretty sure 70 and 80 were cut-out and maybe I reversed 3 and 9 o'clock. If anyone knows better, please chime in. Speaking of chimes the 44 and 46 chimes were a little different too, but those details are for another day.

    I would never notice such subtle differences. I usually tell them apart by the sounds they make. We just had the R179's on the A not too long ago and they're easier to tell apart from the others.

      You could tell the difference between the R179 and R160s and R143s even without the sounds they make because the R179 is FAT and the headlights are lower to the base of the train
      And also, the R179 makes a hissing noise like every 2 seconds when it's moving for some reason but the R160 and R143 don't

    Well there is another difference that some people hadn't noticed yet. On the R143, There are Strip Maps Instead of Regular LED Signage boards Which can be found on the R179 And R160A/B. 1:38 Look at the Top Right and you would see the Strip map, which isn't a LED signage. At 1:43 On the top right It is a LED signage. Just a little note there, Overall, Nice video!

    Impressive job and for the R160B Alstom & R160A they have R142 2,3,4 & 5 trains (IRT West & East side main lines) propulsion while the R143 has the R142A R188 family propulsion found on 4,6 & 7 trains (IRT East Side and Flushing lines). Other unique propulsion is the R160B Siemens 8843-9102 (N Q & W trains) and R179 which has the updated MITRAC propulsion sound

    Miscellaneous Differences not listed:
    - The R143s and R160s both have a narrower appearance when viewed from the front. The R179s appear wider.
    - The R160’s storm doors have a large looped handle to open the doors, the R179 has a small metal lever, which makes it a bit harder to open.
    - The R179’s LED destination sign takes longer to scroll through the time, destination and next stop than the R143 and R160, Which may have been a “quirk” carried over from the R142 since it was also manufactured by Bombardier.
    - The R143s and R160s both use the newer softer door chime also heard on the R188 and R211. The R179 uses the older, sharper sounding door chime heard on the R142s and R142As.
    - The R143s and R160s both have similar dimensions, at 60 feet long, 9 feet wide and 12 feet tall. The R179s dimensions differ, being slightly larger by 60.5 x 9.88 feet but shorter in terms of height at 11 feet.
    - The R143 uses incandescent light bulbs for headlights, the R160 and R179 both use halogen bulbs instead. Some R160s were retrofitted with LED bulbs for headlights.
    - The American Flag and MTA symbol on the front are slightly smaller on the R179 than the R160 and R143.
    - The R143s and R160Bs were both manufactured by Kawasaki, the R160As by Alstom and the R179s by Bombardier
    - The R143s are numbered 8101 through 8312
    - The R160As, not counting separately by number sets, are numbered 8313 through 9802. The R160Bs are numbered 8713 through 9232 and 9803 through 9942.
    - The R179s are numbered 3010 through 3049 and 3238 through 3327 for 5 car sets, and 3238 through 3327 for 4 car sets.

    Like you said, you only shared visible and audio differences. But for those of you that have never operated this equipment, the differences are much greater than that. Acceleration and braking is quicker in 143 & 179 where 160s are a subtle acceleration/braking. The controls and cab layouts are different. Announcements are different. 143/160s have a T controller where 179 had a hook handle, or what we like to call "welcome to Karpal tunnel syndrome."

R160B are all in 5 car sets. R160A-1 numbers are 8313 to 8652 and 9943 to 9974. R160A-2 numbers are 8653 to 8712 and 9233 to 9802. R160B numbers are 8713 to 9232 and 9803 to 9942.

    The interior FIND displays on the R160s is smaller than the 179s, meanwhile the 143 is just the L stripmap similar to 142/142a’s/188’s. Also the outer interiors, the 179s are shinier than the 143s/160s and the letter signs on the 179s are brighter and red orange compared to 160s which are red and 143s which are blood orange.

    It is 2023 and I’m saying this right now: for those who still think the R179 is a lemon, think again. The R179 is the most reliable subway car on the system
