  1. Having rents avg $2500 doesnt help matters.
  2. You must have forget the back of the train exists...
  3. Bare in mind they start laying up trains early in the evening aswell as not all crews are trained yet.
  4. I don't think the MTA wants to leave Broadway local with just one service. I've been on packed W trains even when we were riding the ass of the R train
  5. This line has no business going to jersey. It would be the most logical to send it to the Bronx
  6. Trust me when you're out waiting 30 min for a bus that should be every 7, the type of bus showing up means diddly squat
  7. I'm going to go completely against this and say none of them really need artics but rather, the rather the service needs to run as scheduled. Pre 2018 you could say the B35 also needed artics, now they got artics and the route is still bad cause of missing runs.
  8. That went right out the window with the order for MTA bus XD40.
  9. and that doesnt account for when they do cbtc bypass......
  10. Ulmer does trippers on the B9 and ENY used to do a tripper on the B8.
  11. Kids like to kick the glass to the cab doors in. Happens all the time on the N Q an D.
  12. Door problems are very frequent on the R46s. Atleast one or two a day will occur somewhere in the system on just those alone.
  13. Doesn't matter. The current money used is only funding the current service. More service (or in this case more cost cause there is zero fare collection) means more money.
  14. How else do you think this will be paid for? Nothing is free.
  15. They had the radios installed on many brooklyn buses for some time but not every bus.
  16. and where is the money gonna come from for these fare free buses that you're talking about? Bee line and NICE have routes operating at best every 15 min. MTA is every 2-4 min in comparison on some routes.
  17. Still needs to do its in service testing G.O or not. They been running the A/C via the F G.O. at night these past couple of weeks.
  18. Wont matter with ABDs up the wazoo on the D and N daily.
  19. What people are mistaking for LED might just be regular fluorescent bulbs with a different color temperature. The bulbs are replaced when they go out otherwise the cars would be dark or no lighting at all.
  20. While simultaneously wearing down the other cars because those cars are still needed during the rush hr. And how do you propose all those rollsigns get changed every weekend to make this work?
  21. Some of that is crews missing either conductors or train operators or both. To make matters worse the D in particular has a huge problem with kids vandalizing the trains causing delays. Go anywhere around 79 st during school hrs and you will see the f*ckery ensue.
  22. Not for nothing but the east flatbush/canarsie portion needs the resources more. Bus bunching will always make things worse.
  23. Cosmetic and actual performance are two different things. I've heard over the radio atleast twice now of trains that didn't take power, both coney sets.
  24. The storm doors are usually only locked to isolate the car if there is a hazard in the car (ie vomit, blood).
