The (7) extension to 34 St-11 Av is supposed to be completed in 2013, while the R142A conversion and R188 new car order will finish in 2015. That means that when the new station opens, the line's fleet should be split between the R62As and R142A/R188 cars.

@ Lance
I heard the R62A's are gonna go to the (6) and (4) when the R188s are completed and on the (7) so that means the (7) will be like the (L) in a way. But who knows

Yeah, I know that. I was just saying that when 34th & 11th first opens, there will probably be a mixed fleet on Flushing until all the new cars arrive.

By that time, it will still be a mix of R62A's and R142A's/R188's

R188 are future train cars

The R188s will look very similar if not identical to the R142As.

As for propulsion packages and the like, I don't know if the R188s and converted R142As will receive different electrical components.
