Fun Fact: Back in 1999-2001 Back when the redbird’s were soon about to retire the (5) line did get a small portion R62’s R62a rolling stock from the (6) line.Until the R142’s came in use for service on the (5).
This happened when 6 trains ran in 2 sections between: 1.Brooklyn bridge and 125 street and via the 4 to 149 st 2. Between 125 st and Pelham Bay Park This made R142s and R142as unable to access westchester yard, and some r142s and r142as were loaned from the jerome yard and from the 4 to the 6 line.
Due to a 6 trains being spilt 6 need tralns so they borrowed from the 4 and the sections were 149st and 125th Brooklyn bridge and 125th and 4 R62 train borrowed from the 2 1 or 3 line was in the line for today same as R142/A and also some days it can be rare to find it but also tracks so thats why is was spilt into 2 sections 149th Pelham bay park Brooklyn bridge and 125th so thats all also some 4 5 and 6 trsins may get delays thats all for today bye Edit:3 likes i do more so basically the (6) even goes to 149 because it didn't have access to its yard same with R142/A so the R62 is from (1) (2) (3) or (6) lines and used of express between new lots and Woodlawn R142/A trains was borrowed from the (4) for service (6) runs to 149th and 125th Pelham bay park other times take the (4) (5) (6) for all times
Well they should've kept the R142a's on the 6 line and make the announcements like 2019(excluding accessibility announcements) we don't want to have Dianne on Lexington Avenue(including the 4 and 5) but yet again the 1 may've too much equipment of r62a's so we would need to add some on the 2 and 3(yeah it's bad but there's no way we could've done)
@@SuperheroJunior Yeah crazy part is they made a return on my birthday sorta on lexington av line this November 4th they should do this again for a nostalgia run

Woah that I didnt know cuz they usually dont even use those rolling stocks i thought there was some type of restrictions for that line
@@kevintransit7693I honestly think the 5 should get some R62’s.
@@mtanycftrain3812 Yeah they should i think its possible if there is some type of rolling stock transfer

Edit:3 likes i do more so basically the (6) even goes to 149 because it didn't have access to its yard same with R142/A so the R62 is from (1) (2) (3) or (6) lines and used of express between new lots and Woodlawn R142/A trains was borrowed from the (4) for service (6) runs to 149th and 125th Pelham bay park other times take the (4) (5) (6) for all times
better fact 6 trains used to have r142s all the rolling stock until it got switched with the 7 line n those r142 became r188
I wonder if they kept some as r142s from 6 line or if they entirely converted them to r188s
@@kevintransit7693 the remaining r142A's that didnt get converted were transferred to the 4 line
Well they should've kept the R142a's on the 6 line and make the announcements like 2019(excluding accessibility announcements) we don't want to have Dianne on Lexington Avenue(including the 4 and 5) but yet again the 1 may've too much equipment of r62a's so we would need to add some on the 2 and 3(yeah it's bad but there's no way we could've done)
@@ECRALSE40LPS 1 line utilizes r62's also whats so wrong with r62a? They're prefectly fine imo
FOAM
Crazy part is they even had the diamond bullets on them for some!!! MORE FOAM
@@kevintransit7693 I like the R142 and the R142A trains on the (6) line.
@@SuperheroJunior Yeah they should be a mainstay along with the R62As on this line!!!
@@kevintransit7693 Remember back in the 1990's when the Redbirds R29 and R33WF ran along side the R62A trains on the Pelham (6) line?
