Title: [HD] R188 Testing Footage from August 7th, 2013
Post by: Dj Hammers on August 15, 2013, 05:39:19 pm

While taking Manhattan Bound 7 Express RFW Footage (Which I will post soon), the train I was on paced the R188 set. We eventually got ahead of it, so I decided to get off at Court Square and take some footage.

I see that they still haven't fixed the glitchy side signs and squeaky brakes.

Great videos DJ!

Those trains are old its basically 7211-7215 & 7220-7216 with 1 R188 (7899) in the mix of the 7220-7216 .. Its the first R142/A made for the 6 train and they been in the Bronx testing it on the 5 linen the test track by Gun Hill Road they finally sent it to Corona but this is great footage those I like how the train was shaking in the 2nd one .
