  1. I was thinking something like this: 12 car of R32s on the Rockaway Park R32s to Rockaway Park to have Rockaway Park Yard be 100% R32 R179s to Far Rockaway given enough R179s are delivered (because airport traffic) R46s to Ozone
  2. Yes, R32s ran on the special Rockaways Shuttle post-Sandy, but they were then swapped out with R46s for OPTO operations. I’m not really sure if the R179s will cause power issues at LIPA/the train car itself, but I would rather have the R179s run to Far Rockaway if enough R179s are there for that. (The R32s are good, but they suffer from bad MDBF)
  3. They did loan them from the because the was partially isolated from its yard
  4. It’s that it’s still the weekend Clarke St tunnel shutdown service plan.
  5. 1. Find system breaking bugs in the code and patch them 2. Have redundancies with the system. Like if one fails, get another one up and running. 3. I think the MTA will flatly refuse to buy gaming PCs from anywhere. They have huge markup and you don’t even need the GPU in it if the PC is prebuilt. (Plus, I think the MTA gets their computing needs from large volume corporate electronics companies like Dell, HP, or Apple.) And yeah, an 8th gen Core i5 (or Core i7, for that matter), is probably unable to handle the demand for BusTime and other MTA services.
  6. HTML is a programming language. Windows 7 is running the HTML code out to the display.
  7. That was as part of a GO in July 2018 where trains ran between Broad and Myrtle, then via the to Metro and between Cresent and Jamaica Center. There wasn’t a to Metro program on the NTT at that time, so some conductors had the trains be signed up as trains. That’s how there was R179 trains. (Some conductors signed their trains up as some random program as well, so it was a hellish GO in terms of communication to the point that SMEEs had to be used to provide proper signage on the trains. I think this issue was solved in August when Sarah Meyers made the NTT programmers make a to/from Metro program, as well as paper signs just in case the electronic signs didn’t go well.)
  8. Does anyone know the code for the M55 and D to Grand/W4? I’m at the bus fest and there is a chance that 9500 that’s at the event might get the sigh scroll treatment.
  9. Its proably him. Hes too notorious of pulling these shennigans and the fact that that 1 train was severely late could be blamed on his shennigans. (Also, hes a huge liar in my experience with interacting with him.)
  10. NAHHH YOU GOT ME THERE! I kinda knew that Carlos Santiago struck again with the rollsign BS...
  11. You are correct on that with the R142A. The MTA listed it out here: http://web.mta.info/capitaldashboard/15_19/agencies/t/t7010103_project_narrative.htm
  12. Blame it on their poor software to hardware optimization on the train car! The screen is bigger, but they never changed the code to fix that issue. It’s kinda like if you use a Windows laptop and enable scaling—some stuff won’t scale correctly.
  13. Yeah there were. But the no key handle was redundant, hence the handle being stripped from that side. Plus, more part stockpiles!
  14. Which yard the cars are from. Red = 240th St Yard Orange = Lenox Yard Purple = formerly Corona Yard, now Westchester Yard No stripe = Livonia
  15. Look when the truck gets rerouted or something due to road milling on Broadway. Perhaps via St. Nicholas and 187th st (like how the Bx7 and M100 went via St. Nicholas and 187th St)
  16. I wouldn’t be surprised if that train car is getting dusty real quick on Broadway. The DOT has been doing repavement work there.
  17. More to the R179 M! There will be one more opportunity to see this phenomenon, in August.
  18. They better not....the (A) needs more capacity to handle the L crush.
  19. Source? Lmao sure kinda sounds like that M8 situation with the two derailed cars.
