Superb works, and a pleasure to do a real collab with you! Very happy to give as many corrections and accurate bits of knowledge as possible! The script editings and recordings were all worth it for any interested ones to learn about the legacy of these three fleets. The R44s and R46s are indeed one hell of a crazy yet fascinating history! I hope you all enjoy it, and if you have any questions, please feel free to ask here! Regarding my channel, it is not intended to grow at all; I'll have a few videos here and there to preserve my recording moments since I have a quiet lifestyle. Enjoy our complex works, have a safe day, and happy learning!

The R46 is the GOAT. It’s big and sleek. It has the best sounding propulsion and aesthetically pleasing orange seats. I’ll be so sad when they’re retired.

@@landocalrisian2014the R44 and R46 trains are okay to me ,although the older ones with the brown floors and yellow lights those are the ones I hate but the so called refurbished r46 trains which have the normal modern train floors and white lights are quite okay to me ,my favourite train is the R211T because they have smarter technology and open gangways

Absolute legends those R46s🙌🏼

Very good excellent and nice vídeo from your Channel. Thank you for Sharing beautiful work my Brother. I left like registared with The Bell activated for strenghaten our friendship. We are together Strong hug from Brazil

I like the R44ML's so much that I didn't want them to be retired, but that was retired in the 2010. R46, GOAT

I love the R44 Experimental Signs, and R46 LCD signs.

The R46 became my second favorite train. From this Part 2 history, I just learned that the R44 and R46 cars caught structural defects. Your show was right over the money! Happy Railroading!

I've said for awhile that the R46's ride like their builder's namesake, so finding out they actually had trouble riding and trucks cracking was a shock!

I enjoyed video

Omg when the r44 and r46 door chimes go off at the same time at a staiton it sounds like hell because some tones are not the same notes or the speakers are worn out.

Thank you for a very well done video. R46s definitely killed Pullman; though MKCO did a great job on the rehab- 30 years ago! Point noted about reliability, constant alerts for door problems and breakdowns. Lots of square wheels on the B R68s.....looking forward to the R211s when they arrive in 2040🥱 (I'll be 78 then...)

@@TheRailLeaguerI'm looking at it this way; the R211 is an evolutionary product closely related to the R160 and knowledge gained from 20×year NTT experience and proven CBTC tech employed on the F. No surprises here as to whether the train fits in a tunnel or stuff like that since the physical plant of the subway has not changed. As far as "upgrades" - specs are clearly stared in the RFP and contracts and Kawasaki's experience here meand there should be no surprises as far as propulsion, dimensions, weights, signaling, performance etc. The new technology duch as displays and wider doors fit examples are also incremental, not "new". Other than burn in and structural examibation, eamxamibation shouldn't take this long.

@@christopherstory2136 Really, because the technology is different with each subway car order? In fact, every subway car order takes 8 months to a year to test out and they are allowed to make upgrades as well. Why are you complaining about the length of time it takes for cars to enter service, when literally every subway car order always takes at least 8 months to enter service?

Nice

R44 did on at least the first set delivered. In 1974 75 I was in kindergarten trip and we rode the r44 to Manhattan. They were so smooth and quiet compared to what they replaced

The 46s are really breaking and it's sad Maybe they should call them the Sqeaky six

Cool

Because of the R211s, the R44MLs, R44SIRs, and R46 trains will be dearly, and solely missed.

9:06 that is probably a codebreak on an 8700's changing the sign to an L train

These cars were among the last American 🇺🇸 made subway cars that served NYC for half a century. We’ll see if all the newer foreign models last as long as their predecessors.

7:25; R-46 trains are going to retire until 2025 the R-211 trains for the New York Subway System.

I remember some R44's on 4 and 5 trains on Bronx on 1993

@jassy_235

From my knowledge, they’re not operational especially with the worsening structural issues mentioned here building up over time since 2010. Even if these are operational, the structural issues build up since their retirement would risk serious damage to these four cars. They are used as storage units in CIY.
