chenvinny54 Posted May 3, 2016 Share #1 Posted May 3, 2016 Hello, I found something strange in one of the train cars. The electronic stop teller is glitched. On all of the stops without transfers, it un purposely showed (LIRR), making some commuters think that nonsense display can exist. But we are realizing that of course these train lines cannot follow the like that! Therefore the electronic stop strip shall be repaired. This incident is at car number 8973, operating .

CenSin Posted May 3, 2016 Share #2 Posted May 3, 2016 This has been reported numerous times already. It’s not so rare now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenvinny54 Posted May 3, 2016 Author Share #4 Posted May 3, 2016 It's already been fixed...I know it doesnt look broken, it is totally fixed only if we the commuters don't see those unusual shown transfers like in the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might somewhat affect MTA's business, mostly in the night. Drunken commuters might think that these trains occur, and we scared that most drunken will walk around the station and keep asking the same question which might distract MTA workers.

ttcsubwayfan Posted May 4, 2016 Share #8 Posted May 4, 2016 The driver can't do anything about the information that is loaded up on the system - the wrong transfers have to be removed by actually altering the sign coding, something which can't be done from the train's cab.

We hope this will drain the expected commotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenvinny54 Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share #11 Posted May 4, 2016 here the video that proves it Hmm... that is a train fleet that i took to Lexington Avenue 59 Street from Dekalb Av. That time i was at conductors car. That means it is not operaters fault. Maybe it is a whole train then. So, that one should stop operating, and drive another one, make sure the driver inspect the train before use for incoming customers, when one of the driver or conductor is free.That is similar to OSHA rule, when using any equipment, always inspect first, make sure it is in good shape prior to usage, once per time. I learned that in my school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttcsubwayfan Posted May 4, 2016 Share #12 Posted May 4, 2016 Since it's an issue of sign coding, it's very likely that more than one train in the system has this issue. If the crews rejected every train with this error, then they probably wouldn't be able to make service. Beyond reporting it to the appropriate staff, there's not much the driver can do. And a wrong sign display doesn't mean the equipment is in bad shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
