  • The Kawasaki R211S pilot set (100-104) was found doing some burn-in testing on a particular Saturday on the MTA Staten Island Railway. I was caught off guard when I realized that the doors of the last car were opening to the platform side, which usually does not happen during burn-in testing. The R211S will define the future of the SIR's fleet and will become the very first NTT (New Technology Train) to enter service on the SIR soon. Enjoy the new announcements!

    I've only ever grown up ridden NYC subway underground. So it's interesting seeing them outside. Reminds me of the LIRR trains now, especially the newer R211s and M9s.

    It's time for new trains but these are pretty boring. It's another R143 type of train, just modified. The R44 was such a big surprise and so "deluxe" and different when it came out around 1972. Don't know when the MTA will break the mold with a new design. Not any time soon it seems.
