Did R trains flip with the N? The N is now running the crappy ones while the R has the newer ones.

They had to get all the trains that run over the Queens Blvd. Line (E, F, M, and R) running modern rolling stock that operates with modern signaling (CBTC, if you wanna look it up) because that line has been having its signals upgraded. I ride the N and used to ride the Q, and both of those lines had to give up their newer equipment for that reason.
