Simply put: if he's going to say something(which he is bound to do given the nature of the situation), he should do his job with courtesy and respect. If he had done that, I would've granted him an apology. I would tell you the exact location of the store, but I don't think he would want me to give out his street number. We may disagree on almost everything, but i'm not going to go as far as to give out private information.

I was short by less than a dollar. If they had the money(i'll assume some do, some don't. That's a safe assumption), they wouldn't be going to a store to a begin with. Granted, HHP is out of the mainstream in regards to any bus or train station to obtain a MetroCard, but it's not that long of a walk.

If he's going to say something, he should be polite about it. As Shane said before, which also applies here, if you want to get respect, you have to give it. As well, him admitting he would've let me on the bus killed his argument. Saying he was getting the police 3 times is uncalled for. Regarding what you said(as you once again bring it back to your particular neighborhood or bus ), the rules are rules. They apply to all. I'm surprised such an affluent neighborhood as yours would have citizens who run out of money.

I once got on an express bus(3389 on the BxM11), didn't have the full fare(only time that's ever happened to me on an express bus), the B/O started a fight with me because he didn't like that I walked past the farebox, yet he said later in the argument that if I would've explained to him why I didn't have the full fare, he would've let me board with no problems. Threatened the police on me 3 times. Guy was a total a**hole and killed his whole argument with that statement. Reported and photographed for the complaint I sent to the . I later got on the same express route, explained this to that particular B/O and he agreed with me.

Number?

Has the ever considered building the other platform at Aqueduct Racetrack?

It seems like this is a frequent occurrence.

There was a rail condition on the express tracks, but after a few minutes, all express service resumed.

Such as the via the or are you talking about elsewhere?

I caught it at 5:13pm at 168th Street.

Correct. It's most likely not going back to Chambers anymore.

Regarding the above comments, i'll just say that sending the in place of the when it doesn't run is not a bad idea(weekends, maybe late night). Here is the most recent article about the . The author is a board member of the Riders' Alliance: http://www.secondavenuesagas.com/2013/01/29/the-g-trains-chicken-and-egg-problem/ I think there are 3 key points here: An out of system transfer to the and to Atlantic-Barclays could increase ridership if these folks know they had an easier way to connect to these lines. It's something that the could explore. A crowded train is defined as every seat taken and a quarter of the train standing. Well, some people put their packages on seats and since the uses a fleet with two-seaters, does that mean the considers a seat with a package as taken? If so, that's illogical and they need to seriously overhaul this definition of a crowded train. The reason for low ridership is because, as the article says, they avoid the because it doesn't run very often(which is true), waits are too long(definitely true. I know this firsthand) and that the is always crowded(only point in the article that is not true). They can run more trains and cut wait times. Simply put, I don't see the hesitation in at least experimenting with enhanced service. As I mentioned, run it in place of the when the isn't running and maybe follow the points I and the article points out and the low ridership that is pointed out in above comments may or may not change, but if we on't try this, we'll never know. It can't hurt any line and any commuter. A moving walkway at Court Square is not the answer(threw that in as a random thought).

From what I have read, it has to do with the whole stuff from 2010. A few years ago yes, but people were not happy. Essentially, they felt when the was cut and the was consolidated to take it's place, the was cut back and they felt it wasn't fair.

Send the to Queens Plaza. The shares the express track with the Forest Hills-bound. Move it to the local track with the , as they do when they share the local track southbound. Regarding tph and all that, you can figure out how to configure that stuff so the still has good service and the can terminate on the middle tracks.

I would like an R32 exterior rollsign: 21 St-Queensbridge Queens Coney Island Brooklyn 6th Avenue West End

Well, Lance said the can't handle Astoria to Coney Island itself, so I thought maybe CI, but its old route makes more sense, I guess.

And the terminals?

Very well, but he says someone told him that. Who that person is, only he knows.

I've heard rumblings about a return of the . Would this be a definite and if it returns, would it reprise going from Astoria-Ditmars Blvd to Whitehall Street or different terminals?

There will be a new ?

What exactly is the point of the being re-routed to 125th? Does the not think the can handle the line on its own?

There's no such things as interruptions on a Random Thoughts thread. Anything goes. When/if anyone has the answer to your question, they will respond because I don't know.

Been on the D via the N and then the N via the D for seven straight days.
