    The R211S is part of the base order, so they should all be on property by end of next year. But according to the chats, looks like the R44s are doing pretty terrible - can someone please comment on how bad it is over there. 

     

    Once the first R211S is cleared for service, you can bet it will be run 24/7 and another train of R44s can be stripped down for parts.

  10. crazy thing. i read same thing happened on the GG years ago.

    05/20/1970. An empty Brooklyn bound GG train running on the southbound local track (D1) crashed into another GG train west of Roosevelt Avenue that was crossing from the southbound express track (D3) to the southbound local track (D1). The empty GG had left Continental Avenue at 7:13 AM and developed brake trouble. Passengers were discharged at Woodhaven Boulevard and the first two cars were cut out. The motorman then operated the train from the third car with the conductor signaling with a flashlight from the front of the train 

    Because of the stalled train southbound EE and GG trains were routed to the express track (D3) and then crossed back over to the local track (D1) west of Roosevelt Avenue. The home signal tripper on the local track (D1) was working but as the empty train was running with the first two cars cut out it did not engage the trip cock in time. The empty train rammed into the train crossing over to the local track between the 6th and 7th cars.
