The 53rd St Line is impassable between 5th Av and Queens Plaza. Also, no trains can terminate at Queens Plaza, and due to a previous GO trains cannot run on the track that connects crosstown to Queens Blvd, meaning trains are terminating at Court Sq. Reroute the   and other lines as needed.

Can someone tell how will be the announcement on the R188?

The says "making express in The Bronx".

Will the say "making express stops in Queens"?

No matter of what line the R62As are going.. One line must get the OTT's, and riders just have to deal with that.. What if and riders start to complain with R62's on their lines? What can be done? Nothing! The same applies to the . If riders may dislike getting the old, riders may also dislike it, but they just have to deal. Many lines have to deal with OTT's, they just ride on the train and do not complain. The train will bring you from point A to point B. Thats enough.

The City Hall Loop is impassable, reroute trains - no more than 30tph per track.

One of the Transit Museum tracks is cleared (with such train stored elsewhere) to allow trains to use the Transit Museum to turn in Brooklyn as trains run in Brooklyn only from Hoyt-Schemerhorn Street-Euclid Avenue, stopping at Hoyt-Schermerhorn on the normally unused track/platform there.

 

Its better (and more realistic) run the to Chambers St instead of the Transit Museum, isnt it?

Next:

Due to separate rail conditions on the outer ("local") tracks at DeKalb Avenue in both directions, trains can only access the Manhattan Bridge in both directions from the bypass tracks (the "express," or tunnel tracks are not affected by this, and because of this emergency, 600' trains are permitted to use the (J)/ tracks via the Montauge tunnel between Broad Street and Essex and the Willamsburg Bridge to access the 6th Avenue line tracks if necessary).

This thread is very enjoyable when everybody here keep making what the title suggests...

I think its better we keep doing that instead of discuss who post or not a situation or if a situation could or not happen, or it may be closed and i guess nobody here wants that. Anyway, lets play instead of discuss it.

Next: Due to water issues, the Bowery Station is closed.

Due to a Major project, the entire Bronx EL is being demolished and replaced. Reroute the , and anything else you want long term.

What if the whole QBL is suspended(yes that includes the Archer Avenue/Hillside as well) because of a ruptured sewer pipe and there was a G/O from Woodside to Flushing-Main Street on ALL tracks and the 63rd Street Line is closed because of 2nd Avenue Subway work requiring the WHOLE Line to be closed.

I'm going out on a limb by saying this, but I think you'll know when the doors are about to close when the C/R says "Stand clear of the closing doors please" As for the R32s receiving door chimes I don't see that happening. Many passengers have gotten on and off trains without door chimes for a long period of time before they were even introduced to the system.

Actually, not having the chime could be an ADA violation. I know it's mandated for the new trains for those who don't speak English because "ding-dong" is universal for "get the f- out of the doorway". I'm not sure about the rehabbed ones though.

I agree with Lance. When i moved to NYC i had some problems with OTT trains, since sometimes they don't have clear announcements, mainly on the trains. The door chime helps a lot.

How are the R32's doors dangerous?

Sorry, i think i used the wrong word.. i mean.. i never know when the doors will close when i'm on the R32.. if i hear the door chime at least i know that i can't go in or out the train because the doors are closing.

Anyway.. "dangerous" was a exaggeration

The R32 should receive a door chime.. those doors look a bit dangerous without them...
