  1. The R62's and the 62A's are some of the best rolling stock introduced in my lifetime… Always solid, seldomly ever had a problem riding one, they had the best air conditioning in summer of any stock when introduced back in the 80s and still seem to be holding up.

    The R142As are great for 21st century cars. Probably my favorite cars next to the non converted from r142, r188s.(Though the new build r188s are nicer than the retrofit 142s, the front or back car is usually a new one… Better lighting)

    The R68 is also a favorite, those were introduced at a time they were replacing some filthy, graffiti covered unreliable ancient stock from the early days of the IND. They were a breath of fresh air, especially when riding over the Manhattan bridge or to Coney Island with those big picture windows. Great trains.

  2. ngl I kinda disagree with the F , I think it should be C or D tier as it's like the C but it only works express for like 2 stops then it fits back local on the queens blvd line

  3. Flushing ain't giving up their 142a and r188's 😅

    There was a short period where r68's were running on the A Line and a window seat going through broad chanel & Far Rockaway is just stunning!

  5. I OPERATED EVERY CAR IN THE MUSEUM BUT GATE CARS. BUT
    "Q" CARS WERE MODIFIED GATE CARS.
    I OPERATED THOSE
    ON MERTYL LINE ELEVATED TO JAY STREET.
    THE R32 WERE THE ABSOLUTE BEST IN ACCELERATION AND BRAKING. JUST
    ADD A/C AND RUN THEM FOREVER. THE R42 WAS THE BEGINNING OF POORER BRAKING TRAINS. I HAVE NO EXPERIENCE WITH CARS NEWER THAN
    R62A, SO I CAN'T

  6. I don't like the r62 that run on the 1 line they are too old and had have zero renovations that's the one i ride when i visit the ones on the six line have the side led and new interior lights the new lights can make the interior of the car look much nicer

  7. My alltime favorites? It's a tossup between the R-1/9s and R-10s. I rode on both quite a bit. I also remember when the R-32s were new. Liked them a lot, too.

  8. I used to break in to cabs when i was younger i used to break into the redbirds and the R46 cause as we all know the window of the R46 cab is weak if you kick it it can come off i also did the R62 and R62A cause back then the doors were easy to kick even still today they but they have a guard now and cameras.

  9. i take the 1 train and once i was at the back, some kids around 14-15 just KICKED into the back of the train and use the intercoms. it happens a lot. I would see the back door just smack'd open in the back.
