NYC Subway Rare: M Train via R Line to Whitehall St with R179 R & R179 Q Action!

Because of a train having its brakes activated at 21 St-Queensbridge on the M line, two downtown M trains were rerouted via the R line to Whitehall St to relieve congestion on the 53 St line. One of these rerouted M trains happened to be an R179 that would be signed up as both an R and Q along its route. Enjoy this action from that day! Filmed 6/8/26.
