    What would cause a turnstile to think that a student pass is a 30-day unlimited MetroCard? I swiped my student pass this morning and it told me "SWIPE AGAIN AT THIS TURNSTILE", when I did so it said "GO PASS EXP 03/15/16", implying that I had an unlimited card. Later that day I found out that it had still charged me a ride but thought I had an unlimited card.

    God, I hate that. It seems like those operators don't know that the coast position on the MC is a thing.

    Do you think there's a chance that R32s might make an appearance on the (B) before they retire?

    Apparently they used to merge with the downtown express track but now they end at bumper blocks and are used for layups.

    My cousin told me that on the LIRR, when they reach the end of third-rail power, a locomotive is attached to the EMU and the train is pulled for the rest of the route. Is this true?

    I wonder of any of the R68 sets are going to make their way to the . I'd love to relive being 7-9 years old with the screaming WH 1447J motors on the R68/A.

    Today I happened to drive by CIY and saw 5 R68/As signed up as (N)s.

    R68As have really high pitched horns.

    I love the sound of the RTS's Allison transmission shifting into 2nd gear.

    I need to hear moar of that R68A dynamic braking sound...good thing I'm riding the tomorrow.

    No R1-9 action tomorrow? Shame, the day I head out on the Brighton on a day of significance they don't bring out the good stuff...

      Hmmm...come to think of it R1-9s make no sense.

    Saw an Orion VII on Ocean Av around 6AM this morning...some idiot rear-ended a VII. Guess who won.

      Physics won.

      Well the car was banged up pretty bad, the VII lost it's bumper, and there was a pissed off B/O and supervisor standing about 20-30 feet from the bus. IIRC it was 4599 (don't quote me, it was 6AM) and the bus seemed to be fine, the lights were on, hazards flashing, engine running, and the LED sign was still flashing Q TRAIN TO PROSPECT PARK.

      Well exams are like one-shot GT timers. One shot to get it right.

      Not necessarily true...if you fail the road test/exam you get another shot. lol

    Where's the handbrake located in SMEEs and what does it look like?
  20. B3 Via Av U

    hai

  21. B3 Via Av U
    Back in the spring I met a railfan on my other forum...
  22. B3 Via Av U
    Am I the only one who loves the sound of the dynamic brakes on a SMEE?
  23. B3 Via Av U
    Wrong rail past the fire (if it's possible.) Power has been lost on the BMT Southern Division. Reroute/suspsend away.
  24. B3 Via Av U

    i'm back! I'm going to stop here and set a handbrake for a while. :D
