Done that just a few weeks ago before June ended. The R32's removal from the and onto other lines for Canarsie tunnel shutdown is signaling that the world's oldest subway car is soon meeting it's end.

I have noticed a lot of R62A train being hot cars. I've ridden on a few for a few days now.. Are the AC's broken or what?

A lot of the best U.S. train companies died a long time ago. If they were still here, the transit industry would be a very different place.

It has been years since I've done a proposal on this thread. A train service to Coney Island. Every summer, select trains would go to Coney Island making all stops with the . The purpose is that it serves residents throughout the Crosstown line for a one seat ride to the beaches and amusements when the Island is at it's peak, and alleviate overcrowding on the . Another suggestion is to draw out plans of where the 2nd Avenue Subway should go in Brooklyn should the ever consider extending the line in the future. I imagine a 4-track 5th Avenue Subway with a connection to the train around 36th Street and ending at Bay Ridge where the is. Maybe even an elevated line on the Staten Island Expressway with a tunnel under the Verrazano-Narrows and heading underground afterwards ending at the Mall.

I have ridden his train during the AM rush as well. Great to hear his voice too.

I love hearing this conductor during the morning commute to school.

Same with the train too, only with different results.

It could have to do with the train's fleet/yard (speaking of which)... Is there gonna be a / strip map soon since this train car is swapping between these lines so much?

I can't wait for the station to re-open. As a long-time train rider, it's a big step for the Lower Manhattan subway infrastructure to fully recover from 9/11. I'll likely won't mind the change in timing for trains heading to-and-from South Ferry.

That R62 on the isn't going to the soon. I've seen it just today on the way home. In fact, the interior of the Union Square wreck has a train strip map on and they haven't removed those for a few years now (1-2 to be exact).

I don't know if it's just me, but I don't understand the media hype around this shutdown. It hasn't started yet, and a lot of people are already worried.

Maybe something happened in Astoria, the 60th Street tunnels, or another rush hour trip.

Oh yeah, that as well. Speaking of which, will any of the newer Xcelsiors head down to SI soon?

The Xcelsiors are truly invading the bus fleet. It seems New Flyer has the upper hand lately.

For the number of R32's on the there's still a few operating, I don't know an exact number though.

This is great news to hear. The letter lines will get a big boost in service soon.

Anyone noticing the and trains receiving a ton of more passengers lately? I wonder what's up with the ridership levels for these lines...

A Kanye West and Jay Z joint. I never get old of this song.

There are still some R32's running on the train.

Seems the R32's are not done with the train yet. I caught one today and yesterday. Also, anyone noticed the getting a bit of a bad service pattern lately?
