  1. The ENY R160's are getting CBTC upgrades, so they are going to be short a couple of sets. A couple of 32's are getting sent to ENY to cover those shortages. They'll probably be running at all hours.

     

    And before any of you start up on speculation, NO these R32's are NOT going to be running on the (L) or (M) .

    Oh yeah I already know. They DEFINATELY CAN'T run on the (L). They don't have orange (M) signs also. Unless if they cover it with stickers or something but I already know it's for the (J) only
  2. I've seen a quite a few JFK buses do the (A) shuttle, is there an exception for that one?

    I've seen buses from Jamaica, Queens Village, Casey Stengel, College Point, East New York, Fresh Pond, Flatbush, Jackie Gleason, Ulmer Park and Michael J. Quill doing the (A) Shuttle Bus
  3. I saw some Orion V CNG's operating on the Q25/Q34 on Friday. The (MTA) is really using whatevers left from these buses. After the (A) train resumes normal service they will all be gone

    Orion V CNG on the Q25/34?! I haven't seen that in a while!!! What time did you catch it?!
  4. There are some logistical issues that might prevent the move from happening until as late as August. As of yesterday the first order of R188s 7811-7821 where testing on Y3 track up at Baychester. 7216 was spotted still sitting in UP Yard. Couldn't verify if 7211 was there on the other end or if it's up at Kawasaki.

    I saw it at the East 180th Yard today

     

    No it wasn't in E180 barn nor does it really have any business being in there. Without being attached to the other set. Nor would it be at 207th. The contract calls for Kawasaki to do the conversion work so if something was seriously wrong already in that aspect those cars would have to go back to Kawasaki or Kawasaki would have to look it over at it's nearest on site location which is Weschester Yard. No Kawasaki cars are maintained at E180 barn or 239 barn. Only Bombardier.

    I saw 7822 at the East 180th Street Yard.
  5. Due to a passenger requiring medical assistance, downtown (2) and (3) trains are running on the local track between 96th Street and Times Square 42nd Street. That was around 3pm

     

    I'm not sure what the situation was but downtown (C) and (E) trains ran on the express track from 59th Street Columbus Circle to Canal Street. That was at around 3pm
