Unless I'm missing something, is there really a reason to disrupt the morning rush?

some more from last time... And a small walk around...

trains are going up SAS as of 4:00pm. What happened this time?

https://www.google.com/amp/amp.nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2018/04/the-nyc-subway-was-a-rain-soaked-nightmare-this-morning.html anyone else have to deal with this yesterday?

^interesting service change. But why run the via the when you could just leave the alone? And the and are switched CPW with the eing express and the being local.

Foamers gonna foam...

For the people who don't already know... And since there isn't a official Amtrak random thoughts thread... ^ a little souvenir of mine...

So guys, we can finally stop the bashing the slowness of CPW Express because I was just on the fastest northbound train I’ve been on since the timers were installed. The only time we slowed down was after 96th street, coming up to 110th, probably because of decline. Also, I didn’t know they were re-doing the 110st southbound platform. It’s completely closed.

Its not about being sluggish, its about Protocol, that's why it takes so long, hence adding to service delays.

It’s actually a really good argument in this case. You seem to believe it’s so simple to “remove” a sick/I’ll passenger form a train. Not every situation is that simple. Not every situation, can someone simply walk off the train. What would you as a member of the EMT if that person was having a heart attack on the floor Of the train? You simply can’t lie them on the floor is the platform, and the train be on its way. As @Trainmaster5 said there are these protocols in place for a reason. And as a retired train operator, I believe him when he says they have good reason to have these types of procedures to deal with sick/ill personel.

^@Dj Hammers, in the video, car 1961, at 4:20, is that the set with the RFW? or is it just the drivers door being opened?

^right, my bad

Proterra 0012 on the M50. First time I've seen it, not on the M42. Best pictures I could get of it was from across the street.

5833 MJQ to MCH, shown in the picture, it was on the SBS-M15. still with Quill Decals, If this information already has not been mentioned. EDIT: 5840 and 5831 have also been transferred, and are currently en route. https://www.transsee.ca/routeveh?a=mta&r=M15%2B

R-46 train

I knew a operator who went from MJQ To Kingsbridge. He didn't like Quill, but is fine with Kingsbridge.

That's nice. Question, did they have it signed it up as a or ? Because if it was, you would have had a Cuomo'd R-160 train, and I Don't think that's happened yet...

Random bus statement: They have already the chains on the wheels of the buses out of Quill. Saw a RTS on the M9 and two Next Gens on the M31 with them. On a side note, those two M31 Next Gens still had their Tuskegee decals. Wonder if they are ever going to change them. Not a big deal

my friend told me, he lives in Brooklyn. I'm just going by what he said.

You mean like this? It was really a . this picture is also a few months old.

7668 and 7670 from SC, to scrap.
