ᴴᴰᴿ ⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ New R211T Open-Gangway Test Cars Undergoing Propulsion System Tests Along The (A) Line

On Tuesday April 11th 2023,
The brand new R211T open-gangway tests cars were sent out to perform propulsion system tests along the 8th avenue line. Testing of the cars began at the Euclid avenue station in Brooklyn after the yard lead out of Pitkin yard, operating on the (A) line to the Jay street metro-tech station, onto the (F) line making local stops to the West 4th street station, and back on the (A) line continuing tests to Inwood - 207th street. After the R211T test cars reached the Inwood 207th street station in Manhattan, the cars were sent back to Pitkin yard where testing was completed for the night.

They only have half the train on property and it's still at coney island.
