MTA Plans to Replace Old Subway Cars with Newer Models: A Mixed Reaction from Riders
The MTA is seeking proposals for over 2,300 new subway cars to replace the R62 and R62A models, known for their iconic orange and yellow seats and frequent breakdowns. The new cars, set to hit the one, three, and six lines by 2030, will feature innovative designs like improved electrical systems and open gangway cars. However, riders have mixed feelings about the change, with some appreciating the nostalgia and others longing for air conditioning and clearer announcements.
