R68As to be in other IND/BMT (excluding BMT Eastern Division) lines when the R160Bs assign on the Q[edit]

When the R160Bs start running on the Q train by the end of the year, I don't know what line it may assign to. I think it may run on the F train to start retiring their R32s and displace most of their R46s, some on the R to have a 100% fleet of R46s, the rest, I don't know. But if the G train gets R160s, the R46s will run on the E, but nobody knows if the R68As will run once R160Bs run on the Q.

(N) (Q) issue[edit]

How about we get this issue sorted out here instead of there always being reverts? For what we know and seen and at least one source says that R68A are on the (N), but it seems there are people that want to close their eyes and open them thinking the R68As will be on the (Q) again. --IGeMiNix (talk) 05:28, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There are just a bunch of R160 haters out there who want the R68As back on the Q. This is what happens on Wikipedia often. They put whatever they want without regarding any facts. The Legendary Ranger (talk) 19:53, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The Q is all R160s. The N is partially R68As. 161.130.178.135 (talk) 01:59, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move[edit]

R68A (New York City Subway car) → R68A – There is no reason to disambiguate the page, per WP:DAB. Tbhotch.^™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 02:38, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment what about route 68A ? -- 65.92.181.190 (talk) 06:35, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- "Route 68A" does not exist, a link to List of highways numbered 68 is enough. Tbhotch.^™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 19:08, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

N/W inclusion?[edit]

Yes, I know no real sources point to the fact that R68As are used on the N and W, like the R68s are. However, it seems that within the R68s assigned to the N/W, the MTA throws in an R68A everyday - perhaps they regard the R68s and R68As as one kind of car. Perhaps there can be an edit indicating that R68As run on the N/W too?

We follow this data sheet, which states the N/W are only assigned R68s, so until that changes, no changes should be made to this article. R68As have also been running on the G, same for R143s on the J/Z, and a single R142 can pop up on the 6 during rush hours, but none of those articles reflect any of these. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.3.76.9 (talk) 23:59, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Service assigned typo[edit]

New here so I don't really know what i'm doing but the service assigned list has a typo that says "in rotation with a R68" when it should be "in rotation with an R68". I have no idea how to change it myself so thought I should post here Burnside Avenue (talk) 23:56, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
