  1. The first type. there are example in my flickr photo stream.
  2. Could you do the destination sign for the 103 Mount Pleasant North to Eglinton Station and 162 Lawrence-Donway to Lawrence station (both in the style of the TTC Orion Vs and BUSE)?
  3. This may be a dumb question, but how does the conductor open up the left side on the R32s?
  4. This will probably be shot down quickly but what about sending some R32s to CI for the and trains? They both have significant outside-running, including at both ends (except for on weekends). This could be possible since Bway is not exactly a busy corridor. The only problem I can think of is the changing of rollsigns at the terminus stations.
  5. Just a question: what is the peak vehicle requirement for the trains? (Essentially, how many trainsets are needed for the peak hours?) maybe it would be possible to relocate some trains to the and Rockaway .
  6. I have a proposal: how about restricting the R32s to the only and never putting them on othe routes again for any reason (even the or .)
  7. They managed to get their hands on an MTA key? I find that very disrespectful to do, as it is very misleading to passengers. The only time that I have ever used the destination sign of a transit vehicle was when there was an open house, and I received permission from the operator responsible for the vehicle.
  8. Sound like they were all ready for war! Either way, this is very immature, and they show a complete lack of respect for the subway in general. I could never do any of that because I personally have too much to lose.
  9. Another good location would be Dekalb Avenue.
  10. A good location is at 59th street at the south end of the northbound platform. Since the track curves inwards, you can get pretty good photos.
  11. What is the 'Acme school bus"? I have never heard of it before.
  12. Where is E 180 St on the ? I think you are referring to Liviona avenue station.
  13. I don't see a reason to do so, just change trains at one of the other stops instead. It seems like it would cost a lot to build, and there are many other transfer stations in the vicinity.
  14. I am pretty sure that the Answer is yes. The proof is a few pages back.
  15. In the mean-time the best solution with what the MTA currently has would be to restrict the route to High Floors Only (i find that high floors have a high capacity than low floors.) just my opinion.
  16. I see that Obama is going the way of Chris Christie. In this case, obama's train will operate local in between the trains on the CPW local, and will change over to the 6th avenue line, running the route of the , and using the middle express track on the West End line to Coney Island. Though personally, I would like him to take the train there instead with other passengers. Also, I would bill him for all extra costs incurred by his "joyride", since I don't think public money should be used in campaigns.
  17. I have only realized now that the main benefit of recording bus engines sounds for OMSI is that it has taught me to shut up when I am on a bus and to not foam.

  18. This may be a dumb question, but what does "red rocket" refer to? I assume it relates to the Bway-7th avenue line somehow.
  19. There is an R32 on the J train right now. I am so happy that I caught it!
  20. 6865 on 7 train shuttle today, no depot sticker on the bus.
  21. Additionally, does anyone here NEVER run for the bus/train in order to avoid the run of shame when the vehicle pulls off? I have found myself doing this recently.
