Newest Subway Car – Open House

See tomorrow’s train technology today and give us your input.

On Tuesday, November 29 the New Technology Train (R160) will be parked at the Hoyt-Schermerhorn Street station in Downtown Brooklyn on the A C G.

From 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. NYC Transit research personnel will be there to take your comments on FIND the Flexible Information and Notice Display on-board on the R160.

Be there. Don’t miss this chance to tell us what you think.

This will get all the foamers going wacko. Well im not going anyways. We'll be able to see those cars 24/7 in about 1-3 years.

It's an ego thing..."I sat in the R160 before you did....."

Did anybody go? Any comments about the new car?

Yes.

Wow! That electric display on the interior to see which stations are on the line is something I've never seen before! It's a great looking feature!
The R160 looks like it's gonna be an awesome subway car.

Not for nothing the R160 has the R143 beat by a mile.

Does anybody have pics of the interior? Or any pics of the car for that matter?
