The L operates with 8-car sets

R143s began running on the BMT Canarsie Line (L service) on February 12, 2002,[1] and all 212 cars were delivered to the subway by March 2003.[2] In addition to running on the L,[3] where the R143s displaced the R40/R40As and most of the R42s,[4] they also displaced the R42s on the M weekend shuttle service on the BMT Myrtle Avenue Line. The R143s on the M were replaced by R160As in February 2008. One Person Train Operation was tested on the L during mid-2005.[5][6]
