  1. That's where you're wrong, my friend. Two different systems (Alstom with NJT and Siemens with Amtrak) in certain areas have "bleed over" problems. And also with the GP40 and Arrows, you can only do so many upgrades to those equipment and the Speed Enforcement System (SES a.k.a PTC) in them can either work or not whenever it chooses. I had the pleasure one day of running an Arrow consist on the Corridor and I couldn't go past 57 MPH because of the those systems going haywire and giving you unwanted penalties to deal/recover from.
  2. Trust me on that one. There's many reasons why there's no daily Meadowlands rail service, one being not having sufficient rolling stock. NJT rail ops is still running equipment from the 70s (GP40s and Arrows) that are not working properly with the PTC/ACSES systems, the majority of the cars (Comets) that are in the MMC are being stripped of usable parts because no one makes them anymore, the Multilevel replacement for the Arrows have been pushed back to at some point in 2024 and Transit not having money for parts is pretty much sums it all up.
  3. You guys just don't know how bad things are on the rail side of NJT
  4. I wouldn't put the 11, 28, 29, 361 and 375 for artics. I wouldn't be surprised to see them on the 24 and 31 now that NJT is running those routes.
  5. That order was pushed back for next year, last I heard before I was let go by NJT
  6. Throwing insults at people for your own f**k up, is all on you. You sound bitter because you got fired probably for doing something idiotic and tried to pass blame on others except yourself. You need help
  7. I've seen it in NJT, both Bus and Rail Ops, people love making others miserable for no reason
  8. If that person is truly that miserable in their job, perhaps change it up or leave and find another job
  9. Hilton has been helping out on the 24 since NJT took over it
  10. Any reason as to why the move from Oradell to Wayne? Deadhead?
  11. No, they were moved to the south wing, lower level of PABT
  12. Probably a loaner earlier to Hilton, to see how it would work with the charging station that's gonna be at that garage
  13. Yeah, and when NJT takes over those routes, they will still use Transdev's garage while the transition takes place.
  14. Ok, idk how it is with Metro-North, but tell him to ask anyone who is doing that for some advice. I agree that he should speak to someone who is a part of the union chain of command as well.
