Regular R211s, with fully separated cars... are intended to eventually replace the subway's oldest rolling stock models dating back to the 1970s.
What's different about the R211T - which Hochul described as "the future of transportation" - is what's between the cars: the open gangway is an accordion-like apparatus similar to that seen on an articulated bus, allowing passengers to freely move between cars at any time during their trip.
