I promised my grandson that I will take him for a ride on the brand new Second Avenue subway for his bar-mitzvah. This great event will occur in December 2017. Do I have a realistic hope of fulfilling my promise?

In answering Jack’s question, the type of car that is going to be used for the Second Avenue Subway will be the R160, which is the car currently used on the “Q” line.

I hope this information is very helpful.

Can’t say I know that, maybe R160? At least that since they are ordering the cars today. I don’t think they will design any special new cars for the T like the Transit Authority did back in the 1950s.
