  1. It could cause trouble for the Bowling Green though.
  2. Just curious, will there exist any chance of me photographing a 62A train in October 2013? Should be pretty cool to ride a 62A through City Hall though.
  3. Yes... the connector to the Broadway line. Most people think when you mention Montague anyway. And I heard somewhere that the Nassau connector was closed off after the brown M was discontinued, does anyone know if there is any truth in this?
  4. Sadly, you are correct. Same with the 'why should the take old trains' bull.
  5. Due to a lack of organization in the above scenario, I think a new one would be appropriate: A structural failure (with the el) at Queensborough Plaza has resulted in no trains being able to pass through the station. Reroute trains accordingly.
  6. New route. This is not meant to be taken as a serious proposal, just having a bit of fun: (U) Nassau Street Local Coney Island - Jamaica Center via West End Runs at all times.
  7. Just curious, how long will the R42 set be on the for? Until the R32s from the can be returned to 207th, I'm guessing?
  8. If the MTA thinks them necessary, then it's safe to say that they are. +10
  9. They absolutely are necessary. Flushing's signalling system is old and in need of replacement, and unfortunately the 62As can't be retrofitted with CBTC. Oh, and R32s have until 2017. R42s... who knows.
  10. The 2/5 will NOT get the 62As. The NTTs are too valuable, not because some foamers like the automated announcements but because of the flexibility at Flatbush. The 4/6 dont need that flexibility.
  11. The 40/42 mismatched set was 4460-4665. Sucks that 4450/51 got flooded, though.
  12. Is that the pair with 4450 in it? I thought they were keeping that around for school car purposes. http://www.nycsubway...erl/show?133404
  13. By this, do you mean pairs that contain R40s? If so, that boggles my mind, as the Slants and Mods are so different.
  14. Also, I heard that the R40/42 mismatched pair has been preserved - can anyone confirm or deny?
  15. Just a question - were the stations included in the updated station packs resized? After being inactive with my fictional route for a while, I decided to get back into it and I discovered this monstrosity - all of the tracks have been misaligned:
  16. Were all the R32s delivered in 1964, or did deliveries stretch into 1965, and possibly 1966?
  17. Doesn't mean that the connector to Nassau has power, though.
  18. I see what you're saying. This is part of the reason I travel alone while fanning.
  19. People actually do this? What on earth for? The best part of the train is the front, and you're not going to get a pic of that if you hold the doors.
  20. The heating on Xcelsiors is excellent. I've ridden them to and from school every day this week and they are very warm.

  21. I think he was referring to all the cars used on the line in recent history People complain about the like no tomorrow but I haven't heard bad things about the .
