  1. I wouldn't share them. It's just as bad as posting graffiti photos, it just encourages vandals to keep doing it....
  2. Ok so which one of you little vandals broke into a snowbird this weekend and changed an entire train's rollsigns to the ?
  3. You give them an inch, they ask for a mile. Back to my cave.....
  4. That switch is OOS for the foreseeable future. Anything that comes into Dekalb S/B must run local on 4th Ave.
  5. Friday Night + Halloween + Ebola Paranoia = insufficient clean trains after a hard night of partying on the subway. There were R160's running in unexpected places today to help cover gaps.
  6. Could you please not repost my stuff on subchat? I want nothing to do with that site. Hell, I barely want anything to do with THIS site!
  7. This is what happens when you try to send B-Div equipment into an A-Div station.......
  8. Service Change Posted: 07/07/2014 12:05PM Due to a ongoing signal problem at New Lots Av: Some southbound train service terminate at Utica Av. Some southbound train service terminate at Pennsylvania Av. In both directions and train service running with delays. I saw the pictures. New Lots might be closed for a while......
  9. Awesome news! I might have to come out and check this out. Are there prizes if I do a whole trip without any overruns?
  10. Nope no supplement. My first half was fine (we actually got to Stillwell EARLY!) but things are getting backed up going north....
  11. I don't put company documents online. If you get hired here, you can download it from TENS. No, those are actually trains with crews. A couple of them short turn at 57-7 during rush hour, and they run express in Manhattan but they're still Sea Beach in Brooklyn.
  12. Jamaica Yard is gonna be 100% NTT. They won't be taking in any more R46's because that yard needs to be ready for CBTC implementation. If anything, CONEY ISLAND (and therefore the ) might get some 46's once the swapping happens.
  13. There's a GO on Sunday only with all 4th Ave trains running local.
  14. It's because the gap crew which is assigned to the layup has their lunch at Lefferts so they won't be able to take it from Far Rock. And they need to be on that 68 going north so it can IMMEDIATELY head to Concourse from 207.
  15. It only bypasses TWO STOPS and is between two of the city's busiest stations. So station timers will be in effect if you have something in front of you.
  16. The N/B platform at 34/6 gives you a TON of space for photographing the front of uptown trains.
  17. BASICALLY the same thing is not the same thing.
  18. Easy, just bypass those stations without stopping. Chambers would be the last revenue stop on the and and trains would run lite through the loop while turn on the platform or use the relay.. You gotta question what kind of mayor would let an event like this happen at the time of day that the is still running.
  19. We have a peculiar GO coming up in 2 weeks: All times, beginning 11:45 PM Fri, Jul 11 until 5 AM Mon, Jul 21, all southbound and trains will bypass 182 St. We This is gonna be 24/7, which also means there won't be any northbound express service in the PMs.
  20. ​Yeah this is why they ran it from 2200-0200, when most of you foamers are supposed to be home and asleep. Also bear in mind that there's nothing OFFICIAL about Joe Korner. He updates that site based on information sent to him, not official MTA documents.
  21. Oh I burned some customers tonight on the 4 Av. Made a connection with the at Pacific, and then tk 3 gets hit with a track circuit so we crawl the whole way to 36 St. That first is long gone and we actually have a second pass us! And there were enough people who got off my train at 36 and then went across the platform to wait that I just had to shake my head.....
  22. Am proud to say that I still haven't ridden an R188 in service! They're doing clearance tests on the Pelham line tonight. Gonna run a R188 from Pelham to City Hall and back. Should be on the road right now.
