It’s about time. The R211As look fantastic! I’m honestly looking forward to their R211T/S counterparts in the near future.
You and us both!
@@DJHammersTrains Nice new subway cars. Also cool to see them with our other newest trains, the R179s.
@@DJHammersTrains do you know if they'll serve the Lefferts Blvd line?
Will they put these on the NQRW
@@RDramatica R211A will be going on the A, B, C, and D lines. As for the N/Q/W, it will likely get R211Ts in the future but that’s not confirmed yet. And I believe the R is remaining R160s for the time being since Jamaica yard is 100% R160s.
I am absolutely in love with this train. Beautiful exterior, modernized interior, harmonizing propulsion; absolutely gorgeous train! I can't wait to ride it at some point in the future! :)
Same!
Wow! I’m really looking forward to the R211T in the near future.
I rode in this on the R211 Inaugural Trip and I loved it. It’s very very modern, bright & very smooth. I love seeing the blue A on the front & sides of the train again. I missed that a lot with the newer trains on the last 23 years. This is a great train and I can’t wait to see how well it does here in NYC. I’m so happy to have been a part of history!
If they were to carry out some of the option orders, they should make them R211T's in my opinion. They can offer more capacity, and on lines like the (E), (F), (M) and (R) trains AKA the QBL lines, it'll help with a bunch of the overcrowding on that line.
The 1st option order is going to be 100% R211A's. The 2nd option order hasn't been purchased yet.
Furthermore, the R211A's have less capacity than the R160's. Putting them in Jamaica Yard is a bad idea.
This first passenger run reminds me of the First R110B passenger run videos, and nearly 30 years later we get this Next Generation subway car
I love it already! I can’t wait to see more of them enter service!
ya han entrado
I already attended only the R211A enter, but if you refer more of them specifically the R211T or S are still in testing and the S in delivery
@@juliocesarhernanadezburgos3043 Im just referring to the R211’s in general.
@@KingofGamingAndTrains456 hey Cres that Kawasaki is a high quality company or CAF since CAF gave us a train that began to have problems with automatic piloting
It was an honor to ride these cars from the future! I enjoyed it a lot!
Cant wait to ride this over the weekend.
Can't wait either!
I hope to go back to New York City to ride those trains!
Wait, I thought that the passageway between cars would be a "funnel" type thing, where passengers could freely move from wagon to wagon
they are still testing the R211T (open gangway). It’ll probably start it’s service late of this year.
these are distinct & high-quality for a MTA Subway car i'm glad to see these finally launched & began yesterday :)
Very nice. I always enjoy going around a curve. I can see so much more all at once.
These are much better than the R179s! I am so glad these are in service now. I hope the A, C, N, Q, W and SIR lines will get R211s as the R211s are replacing the remaining SIR R44s and the R46s.
The N/W and Q won’t get them due to changes in the CBTC plans. As it stands now, we have Pitkin and Jamaica yards on the docket for these cars, the 6th Avenue Line with an outside chance.
I cant wait to see these trains with my family, we live close to the Euclid Ave Station!
Might not be in Nyc anymore but the A train in Rockaway beach will always be my trip home
I got one this train one time today march 13th and I love it it’s so better in up close lives every bit of the ride
When i seen this.i became a fan of these new trains in america imediately. as they got the best new looks to them with the new features bringing the smartness to these new subway cars. It's pretty nice & neat. That the very happy passengers travelling on the new R211A's are loving the new trains.
They were long awaited, but now they’re finally here in passenger service.
this made me realize that the E will soon have the oldest equipment on 8th Avenue, when 10 years ago it had the newest equipment
I still remember when people could not wait for the R179s to enter passenger service to replace the R32s and R42s back in 2017. Time has gone so quick, for when the R211s are finally in passenger service
Looking forward to riding these in the future! I'm especially looking forward to the R211T and the R211S.
One of my favorite NTT Trains on their first day of service!
The R211As look great!! Love the flashing red and green lights when doors are open/closing. Thanks DJ Hammers for the ride😀💚
Sounds nice, not loud .. I have to try one out one of these days , thanks for the video
Love the green and red lights on the door ways.
Waiting a hour for the r211 to come to 42nd street, worth the wait
Who are you?
It's about time they were finally rolled out for service.
Those doors are definitely WIDE!!
Lets get the R211T popping.
I can't wait for open gateway
*gangway lol.
R211Ts should hopefully be entering service later this year.
The propulsion at Beach 67th street was impressive 😳😳
These are awesome for the R211 cars, I wish every line could run for every subway.
So please bless the R46 cars
Yeah they're nice, but I'd rather see the R211T's enter revenue service with the hard-shell style in open-gangway. I hope they start making sure the low-beams/red tail lights are on entering stations. I've seen some of the test trains where the light was so blinding they're gonna have blinded passengers falling off platforms into the track area if they don't do something with the bright lights. It's that angling as well of the diagonal light beam that makes the R211s worse than other models. Otherwise, they look pretty nice. I love the FIND maps above every doorset and the R211T addition when doors are open at a station to indicate what car you're in.
Amazing! Can't wait to go back to NYC to get a ride on these!
When the train pulled up I was so excited and the kids next to me was so elated too, so much ppl was looking around in the inside, and ppl recording it when it rode off (me), alr mta y’all doing yall big one 😛
Thanks for the coverage. I was happy to learn that only a small percentage of cars are open gangway. The wide doors are good, but they appear to result in a loss of seating.
wow i love the new trains! its ashamed i couldn't ride it in person
The time has finally come out first day viewing the R211 and riding it I also got information they have cameras and free wifi inside of it
I’m hoping that R211A will get acceptance after 30 days of testing in normal run on A line
I’m 3 blocks from a station that runs A,C,B,and D trains
FINALLY!
Sadly I missed the first ride… I’m all the way in CA… But looking forward to riding them when I get back home! So exciting!
But this also means… Goodbye R-46s…
I wish I lived in NYC again
This might be a chance, when I go on my trip to NY in April ima catch this for sure
Lol me boarding the r211 at 1:40
wooo!!! yess
Waited so many weeks months and days for this train to go in service
@@trevorjackson4086 nah fr tho
It’s about damn time I mean it took them long enough, okay R-211 show us what you’re made of 👊
stainless steel and some titanium wheels
@@karatekidfahim3 that’s all well and good but I was referring to how they do during the course of their 30 day acceptance period.
Is there more seating? the seating at the front end was replaced by what I suppose are tech units
Maybe I'll ride these trains when I'm at the city.
New railcars for a legendary rail line...
Oh happy day! And I'm not even *from* NYC.
The first day of service was on my birthday
So the R-211s Have officially Gone into their 30 day acceptance phase So let’s see how they do, a month from now we’ll all know.
9:07 Ok who's playing undertale music?
lmao just noticed
Oh wow
I honestly think they should put these on the d and e line
The E line may get some cars further down the road.
I'm in New York right now for my 12th birthday. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to ride an R211. Hopefully, I can in the future.
its about time anyway
So long R46 subway cars, but we still gonna film them going out though.
So, my question out there to anyone who can answer... with the advent of this train model now introduced into the system, what will MTA do with all the remaining active R179's currently in use on the A, C & E lines? Will they just replace them with this one and that's it?
No. The R179s will remain in service. However it is anticipated that the base order and part of the 1st option order will be for the A and C routes to make them 100% NTT for 8th Avenue CBTC and to make the C train full length. From there, the 4-car R179s will be reassigned to the J and Z to increase service, ending the need for the R143s to operate there (188 R179s + ~68 R160s should equal to about 30 8-car trains for the J/Z). The 5-car R179s will remain for 8th Avenue service.
I’m hoping I get to get a glimpse of that beauty
In many city metros now you will find yourself in a train that is articulated allowing the passenger to move to other areas very easily. This helps at busy times to ease congestion. So, can passengers use the doors at the ends of the cars?
only the r211t they can
When you look at the bends the train could really benefit from articulation. Yet again us rail have gone their own way and missed a trick.
@@johnhaynes710 the R211Ts have open gangways. Hopefully they will enter service later this year. I also heard the DC Metro is now considering gangways.
No fair I was on the a train yesterday I didn’t see them
Just got on the new train this morning it's no different than any other newer trains🤔🤔
Nice!
Hi, Messiah. I like your Transit City Subway videos. Also, is the Roblox R143 Supreme Delivery ready yet? 😃😎
welcome to the party r211..!
the r211, the party crasher.
That’s ME 👀
3:03 etc is that a wheelflat I hear? Sad if true \m/
Awesome footage! 🔥
Excellent 👌👌👌👍
Welcome to the Future Passangers.
That was me at Howard Beach 😁👍🏾
I wish Boston got these.
USB ports?
“R46 crying noises in the background”
No fair I wanna ride on it 😭🥲
The cars look great, but shouldn't the RED BLINKING DOOR LIGHTS flash BEFORE the doors begin to close? Would give entering passengers a warning that the doors are about to close shortly....
R211 WILL BE ON A AND C LINES AND STATEN ISLAND RAILWAY
Yep and Also on the B, D, N, Q, W and Rockaway Shuttle lines since they still use R46s and R68s
@@tommicoker8498 The R68/As won’t be replaced by the R211s. Only the R46. The R46 isn’t on the B/D lines.
@@superbrownsheep3777 oh okay then just on the N, Q, W and Rockaway Shuttle lines
@@tommicoker8498 the R46s are going to get replaced/retired eventually, but the R68'As? Going to have to wait for a few more years for them to retire.
@@fiercingdragon the retirement of the R68s and R68As will supposedly begin in the 2030s.
Who playing undertale music at 9:07 😂
Wow I'm surprised I'm not the only undertale fan who noticed that
His theme be going so hard man had to play it on the r211 😂
Omg
I am hoping to catch one. i missed my chance today because i thought it was on the 12th so I missed it.
Less seats i think will be a problem with a lot of people 😕
exactly.
It is a debut 21 months in the making. Let’s get the final test succeeded and then they can get rolling
How do I know where the train is? Since only one is running and I want to ride it
its gunna run on the A line
It was just like when the R110Bs went in service at this station back in 1991.
1993, not 91. 🙄
@@robroy6374 my mistake.
We have entered a new era. The R211A officially in passenger service. Can’t wait for the R211T to do the same!
Try to spot the r262s when they start testing for the a division
Why is the signage flashing?
if only we where flying in next week to JFK so we can grab the A train like we usually do.
And what without a through passage through the entire train? And then flashed the video with the composition with a through passage.
Who’s the person that took the thumbnail? I think I there
I see they removed the black skirts for between car movement
The gangways are on the R211T, this is the R211A.
So when are the accordian cars going to be in service?
Sometime in the fall of this year.
@@TheRailLeaguer ok?
Can’t wait
How many did they release? I never see them on the A or C tracks in Manhattan
What are the differences between them
R211A is a normal subway car. R211T has open gangways. R211S is for Staten Island.
They removed moving between cars freely feature?
They aren’t entered service just yet. They are still testing them.
There are different versions of the R211, the open gangway models should be in service within the next couple of years
Was there an announcement welcoming the passengers to the r211s?
Yes.
which is the ones with the open gangways
What happened to the open gangway cars?
Those 20 cars will enter service in the fall.
Oh man
Do these new trains provide wifi? do they run faster?🤔
I see they backed off on the ability to seamlessly walk between the cars.
thats only for 20 cars out of the entire order
These never had them, but 20 cars will have them in this base order. If successful, the last 437 cars in the 1612 car order will have open gangways primarily for the Queens Blvd Line.
thats not confirmed yet as the 20 cars still have to complete testing
Oh wow that's amazing
Noo my r46
why do these r211's sound so similar to chinese metro trains?
