  • Here we see several trains of R142 and R142A equipment running in service on the 6 line. Since May 2018, R142A cars do not regularly run on the 6 line, but weekend construction necessitated a temporary return of these types of cars to 6 service. Enjoy!

      Ismael Leal The R142A and R142s remind me of the legendary Redbirds that ran on the 2, 4, 5, 6 and 7 lines.

      Ismael Leal I have not rode the train of many colors but I rode the Redbirds when I was a little boy living in the Bronx during the 1980's and 1990's. I mostly rode on the Redbirds on the 2 & 5 lines and sometimes on the 4 & 6 lines too.
      I also remember visiting the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center back in 1995. New York City was very different back then and I miss it.

      The R110A and R110B were the first new technology trains that were built and ran in the early 1990's and were the prototype of the R142 trains. The technology of the R110A and R110B were used on the R142 trains. Now the R110A and R110B are retired and will never be used for passenger service again.
