The east is holding 50 R-42s pending the end of the Option II order. The original number was 64 additional cars for the east but that might have changed. |

Oh ok, cuz I was wondering that if the M no longer runs to Bay Parkway: would it would free up a good number of R160's to cover all J/L/M/[Z] service? |

The M is really not needed rush hour to bay parkway unless they run some express. But the MTA should hold a D train at bay parkway in case there is a major delay in D service.I took the D to CI last year every day transfering to the F to get to work. M trains were half empty |

I took 2 shots of the under car equipment on 8313. If you look at NYCSubway.org you can see it for your self. I will try to get more once I see the cars out of the barn and sitting in the yard. |
