In the early morning hours of March 1, 2024, the New York City Transit Authority took delivery of five new R211A subway cars: no.s 4185 through 4189. Unlike previous deliveries - except earlier this same week - these cars were put on the rails on a different track than usual; one typically used to serve the Sims Metal Management plant at the South Brooklyn Marine Terminal. Thus in order to get the cars onto into the Subway system, they first had to be brought out onto the street trackage on 1st Avenue so that the TA locomotives could be coupled on.
NYCTA R41 locomotive no. 59 and R211A car no. 4189 are seen facing each other on 1st Avenue while TA employees begin the process of coupling the equipment. |
