Looks like it’s time for a glow-up.

The MTA is chugging along with modernization efforts and plans to introduce 378 new R268 subway cars to ensure train traffic is moving smoothly throughout NYC. Considering the system sees roughly 3.6 million daily riders, fully-functioning cars are non-negotiable.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul said in a statement, “These new subway cars will carry billions of riders over their lifetime, connecting the people and places we hold dear with the safety and reliability New Yorkers need and deserve.”
