MTA last month said that pilot railcars from Alstom would be delivered in 2029 and enter passenger service on the Long Island Rail Road in 2030.
All 316 railcars that were part of this order were expected to be delivered by 2032, it added.
Those include 160 cars for the LIRR and 156 for Metro-North.
