I enjoyed riding the R32 and R42 when they were on the line. Fantastic line. Would enjoy this in the future and you can see the Jamaica LIRR station while entering the tunnel.
l have ridden the J Z Train to work into Manhattan Everyday when l go to work but l normally take the Z because its normally Express but this could be added to the train sim world 2 roadmap
R160B Siemens do not run here because they are 5 cars long therefore 10 cars if two are used. BMT Eastern Division only holds 8 cars two sets of R160A-1s.
