Ugh. I often feel like the A/C line will be the very last to see new train cars. And now that suspicion is validated. AM NY recently reported that the MTA’s decided to keep them in service even longer than scheduled, instead of tossing them into the ocean. I’m sure the G is not even in the plan for new trains.
How nice are those super new trains that show all of the upcoming stops (and thus can be programmed for any line, instead of having to see the “this route not in service” light on the 4,5 when you’re in a 1,2,3 car)? The only thing I don’t like about them is the fact that they all have their letter / number in red on the front car. Part of the fun is seeing the colored circle rounding the corner into the station.
