  1. Just saw a truck with R179 A car 3014 go by me on I-80 here in New Jersey.
  2. Delays Posted: 07/13/2016 1:28PM Due to a power outage, expect extensive delays on all train lines. Allow additional travel time. Power outage at RCC. http://abc7ny.com/traffic/all-subway-lines-experiencing-delays-across-nyc-due-to-power-issue/1425312/
  3. The motors would be different. The R160s use Alstom/Siemens motors. The R179s will use Bombardier motors presumably like the ones on the R142A/R143/R188.
  4. So the train I was on stopped at 23rd and the C/R announced there was an incident at 28th and there was a power off condition. So, I took an über home and I saw a lot of FDNY and NYPD activity at 28th. Kinda curious to what happened.
  5. It's for tonight's A.L. Wild Card game at Yankee Stadium. It's leaving Grand Central at around 7 tonight.
  6. Well now... Suspended Posted: 10/01/2015 6:46PM Due to signal problems along the line, service has been suspended between 34 St-Hudson Yds and Flushing-Main St in both directions. Take the and trains instead. LIRR will cross honor at the following stations: 34 St-Penn Station, Hunters Point Av, 61 St-Woodside, Flushing-Main St, Kew Gardens-Union Tpke, and Jamaica Center-Parsons/Archer.
  7. How does an R142A not fit through the tunnels while an R62A can fit? Aren't both cars the same dimensions?
  8. I do the same, but I'll try position myself at the very door that'll stop right in front of the stairs. That'll reduce walking time and I can get in front of the crowd going up the stairs. Then, I'll have a chance to make my bus connection.
  9. I also hear split is a, b, and c #cars a piece on some trains. Wondering what that means
  10. If the northbound platform is out for an extended period time: Rockaway branch terminates at Howard Beach. Additional trains sent to Lefferts if necessary. Two branches: One single track shuttle on southbound tracks from Howard Beach to Rockaway Park. Another shuttle operates between Beach 90th and Far Rockaway on opposite track.
  11. If that ever happens, does 53rd St really need 2 express services? I've seen crushloaded s as usual, but the does get a few standees be the time it gets to Lex during the evening rush.
  12. QBL Express is a complete mess right now. Took me at least 20 minutes to get from Queens Plaza to Roosevelt Ave.
  13. Are all runs on the operated by ATO? Some trains I get on feel like they are being manually operated especially when stopping, but I never get the chance to see up front if it's true.
