Here let me go point by point what I think may happen if the MTA can get the 32 billion on time 1)CBTC on 8th Avenue as well as QBL (Was inckluded in past MTA documents, have it somewhere in theb 20 needs assessment book. 2) Penn Station Access project will give people one seat rides to Connecicut (cars are crushloaded by the time a trains reached 53rd Avenue on thye IND). Same with EST: Grand Central access also a one seat ride. 3)New rolling stock is coming anticipating the QBL CBTC project that has back on the table for negotions with city elected individuals. It is to start in November samd time as Sea Beach rehab. 4)Variois +SBS+ projects including plans to assess the feasibility of Q44 SBSn as a vey useful crosstown route. 5) This combined will alleviate congestion on the 53rd Street corridor unless Cuomo rejects the MTA plans again 6)New R179 and R211 cars CBTC ready. R160 kits for CBTC possible. *Note 7 extension, SAS, sea beach rehab and QBL CBTC nay get the go ahead to be completed on time save for ADA issues at 34th Street and CBTC installations bugs to be fixed out on the Flushing line.

Yeah there are lot of immature kids in BMCC its a party zone which is nice but so many disrespectful student arrogent and too busy being a superstar on Facebook. Yeah good lucjk failing courses cause I aint going that rant.. Man I just keep it moving. Look I am here to get my CIS degree, leave with my diploma (Im transfering not sitting here wasting my time at the ceremonies no time for that) ...and go 4 year stay the hell out of myy way. Study hard. Because I actually have a rapt interest in controling my sestiny in terms of making it making dollars, bottom line. Not here to play games...

The T will not be activated until Phase 3 and 4 is built. I think there may be a bit of logistics involved. But one think for sure the most logical thing to do is the extend the Q considering we dont have a huge surplus of cars. Also I do not thing and T LED display programsn even exist. Can that be a deterrant your guess is as good as mine.

Daniel dude this is important information, Listen to peacemak3er and VG8... I see this exactly the same way you have to sell yourself and like anything it takes practice. Its good to get all the resume workshops online, the see about some articles on proper speech dictation. If you can get that down as well as other guided research (Finding about your employer) You will succed. Seems Peace is with me too on his ppoint, so we both think that you should put those fears of community college to the side and just get enrolled. Yes FASLA and TAp will cover tuition costs also books transportation and even rent! This is not HS where people will cross the line with you, in college you are dealing with a bunch of hard working, matureminded dilligent students with understanding (They are not kids but mature adults) Dont be afraid, take that plunge Daniel go for yours dont feel discourages... This obstacle you can certaintly shatter for your own benefit...

You can go through college and major in the multimedia arts. Usually in a college program they can even offer a paid internship. On top of that you have the option of Federal Student Aid to pay for tuition and other added living expenses for the entire duration of your curriculum. Also loans are extended to you. When you are done you will have the edge in the multimedia field in your case professional photography. I think you should look into college either in this city or abroad. I dont see this as the end of the world. You still can reach your goals because you do indeed have opitions.

On the Brooklyn end technically it would make perfect sense given the layout of Rogers Junction to send 2 and 3 trains to Flatbush with the 4 and 5 to Crown Heights/Utica Ave or New Lots at all times. But the same issue in regards to the WPR comes up: In Flatbush there is high demand for service to both IRT trunk lines. So say if you group 4 and 5 trains to run only to Utica and New Lots you are forcing passengers to make an unnecessary cross platform transfer which can result in delays and overcrowded conditions. Thats why the MTA doesnt follow the practice that the Dual Contract engineers intended when it was built.

Is it going to be 4 car OPTO?

The HUGE problem associated with delays on these two lines has to do with track layout yes but I thought it had more to do with chokepoints throughout the H system with its branches in Brooklyn and the Bronx. Rogers Junction in Brooklyn and the other spur at Grand Concourse both create age old chokepoints that can stall trains. Forget it if they malfunction it will affect the entire IRT system. The MTA for a long time wanted to fix these problems but cannot because the environmental impact will be too high. Imagine ripping up Eastern Parkway today and rebuilding a junction there, the service diversions and delays can last for years. (Sort of how the 63rd Street connector project went).

Not to change the subject but I noticed something while coming home last night. If you just happen to be on the R at Whitehall Street, Brooklyn bound, look through the window on the outermost doors before the train meets with the last timer before it is in the Montague Street tunnel. You will clearly see two bellmouths that was supposed to be a second Staten Island connection, a underwater tube with a stop at Ellis Island. I knew it existed from the history books but I didnt actually see it for myself until last night.

Hes going off the usual length of time for a NYC subway car from production to scrap which should be 40 years. The cars started to be shipped to NYCT around 1984. They are 30 years old now and it will have at least for 10 years (approximately) of more revenue service before the R62 or R68s either way are retired. So no subway car is to date has been actually planned for the retirement of those particular cars.

The Manhattan and Brooklyn maps says that there is no switch at Clark Street either, but that makes no sense to me, theres switches there. That's a must if it covers the route into an underground tube as a rule!

The cars really moves southbound in the tunnel because they removed the timers, now it books through the tubes. So the line improved overall save for some weekend GO related delays. Yeah same, all I have really seen today is R46s, although that can change even by tommorow. I remember Friday the line was almost all R160s.

Well yeah fortunately the R can retain alot of its R160 cars, I guess they see the benefit too and would prefer to let the R stay as a mixed fleet, but the assignments are sporadic. Sometimes you may see only 1 or 2 sets of R160s, other times however most of the fleet for that day is all NTTs. Its clear the MTA had the BMT in mind with the designing of these supurb cars.

Trains can switch in either direction from the 63rd Street line, trains can go from Broadway to either 125th Street or 179th Street in Queens. They can send trains from Sixth Avenue to Harlem if they wanted to, the crossovers on both levels allows for it. Provisions exist right outside 63rd Lex which is designed to barrel right into Phase 3, downtown from Queens. Maybe when they proceed with Phase 3 they might begin to do this with the . But I think the main reason they built the tunnels originally like that was to give Second Ave to access Jamaica Yard. Plus if one fans the 63rd Street connector on the F, right before that sharp curve into 36th Street one will see the original bellmouth of the line built to connect to the LIRR for the QBL Super Express route. Finally new provisions will be built into Second Avenue for a new Bronx line (Phase 2) and one for Brooklyn (After Phase 4)

They restored service on the IRT Broadway line quickly but they were sending 5 trains via the 2 for hours afterwards. Yeah I got caught up in that mess too.
