R3216068E

Had a weird commute this morning okay so I'm on the 7:21 R42 getting ready to be at the RFW and this woman (not sure if she was TA) was holding up a sign saying 0721 and they were both laughing and one guy to a picture of it she said she wanted to let him no that he was an 7:21 . The horrible thing is I didn't get to look out the RFW because the T/O I had was a training T/O so he had another T/O examine how he operated the train.

 

Edit: It was at Jamaica Center by the way

Since it arrived. C cars don't leave their 6-car sets.

 

Thanks for clearing that up from what I read I was mistaken that C cars leave their 6 car sets and that they would be inserted with another pair.

How long has 7883 been inserted with 7882-7887? I always get my C cars mixed with other factory sets.

A little note: The around 6:30 AM terminates at 57 St-7 Av during the weekdays from Stillwell Av

 

I don't think that's really news a couple of trains always terminate at 57 st/7 ave during AM Rush and PM rush.

Exactly... It's not helping anyone... If anything it'll confuse people even more seeing something like BKLN BRDG instead of BROOKLYN BRIDGE.

I don't know if it would confuse people it would confuse tourists maybe but not New Yorkers lots of people in this city use abbreviations I don't think it's all that bad.

B82 is to get them for SBS. B15 is also rumored to test them. Grand Av may also get artics sometime soon.

That's great news the B15 needs them but I wish Flatbush was getting for the B46 that's my bus.

Which depot are the Artics supposed to go to? My money is on East new york since they are making that depot Artic ready

Saw 6025 not to long ago on the Q50

Just like DBZ revived Frieza Im reviving this thread thats right  anyway does anyone know when the first R179 test train is supposed to arrive?​

Betcha Hudson Yards will be as packed as opening day with the TOMC being there for the first time.

I know I'm going to be there a vintage train at a brand new station I have to go.

Also, some shitbag stole the R27/R30 rollsign that was installed on 3807. After 3380-3381 had theirs taken, that means none remain on service cars.

They are called foamers man its not that serious.

It wasn't in service. It turned out to be a Work Train. It was on FB and a T/O even said it wasn't in service plus the runs OPTO on weekends including holidays that runs on weekends schedule

 

Yeah I saw it trolled the hell out of me I thought it was in service at that time I didn't see an R32 in service on the (G)eorge since 09

Looks like my luck ran out I usually catch an R143 on the without trying especially during rush hour now everybody else is catching it but me

Why would they? The R188s have 11 car trains specifically configured for the . If they send them onto other lines, they'll either render half of the train unusable, or they're going to leave a bunch of 6 car sets unused in the yard while all the 5 car sets troll the other lines. It would not make any sense to send the R188s elsewhere.

Well Its possible to see them on other lines they were built specifically for the because the is the first IRT line to have CBTC upgrades

R188's were made for the . I DOUBT any other line would need an R188, and since the computer has only the announcements in it, according to a T/O.

I'm pretty sure we will see them on other lines like trainfan said that before nobody thought that R143s would go on other lines but the but look what happened once other IRT lines are installed with CBTC they will probably move to other lines

I saw one last week.

 

Well I haven't been seeing any lately I usually catch them without even trying now I hardly see one at all

I'm wondering what happened to the R143s on the I'm catching no R143s lately I thought they were supposed to become permenant on the

Didn't people say the G.O was to start early next year? What's the point of putting 32s on the several months in advance?

 

 

If the was to get 32s, odds are 32s would be put on the line a couple of weeks before the G.O starts...

I've heard that putting the R32s on the is just on hold I wouldn't give up hope yet

Caught an R42 train at Jamaica Center this morning

 

There is a power outage that knocks out service on QBL between forest hills 71 ave and Queens plaza service is screwed up and its AM rush hour.

Due to signal problems at Queensboro Plaza, southbound and trains are running with delays.

Allow additional travel time.

 

Was just at Lexington ave 59st thought I was never going to leave the 60 st tube

  there is tons of congestion between the and trains IMO opinion they should terminate some trains at 57-7 ave

Who else caught the Concert Specials this past Saturday? There was one special that really stood out

I caught it there was an R160 train that turned to a to 2 ave.

Ok, this is a bit more hard:

 

A major power failure has happened in Brooklyn leaving all of East Brooklyn without power starting from Broadway Junction.

 

Reroute away!

: runs in 2 sections from Jay st metro tech to 207st Inwood and Rockaway Blvd to far rockaway shuttle buses provide service to jay st metro tech to Broadway Junction.

: suspended

:runs on the line to Metropolitan ave Shuttle buses (or the Q24) from Myrtle ave broadway to Jamaica Center.

all trains coming from Manhattan terminate at myrtle-wyckoff station shuttle buses from myrtle wyckoff to Canarsie rockaway parkway.
