  1. And what is Manhattan suppose to be? Cause right now its a mix of everything.
  2. An update to my comment in the R211 thread: seems to be in the process of removing un-needed variations of station announcements on the whole NTT fleet. So far, the R142/R142A's and R211's have these new upgraded programs.
  3. So according to the new videos on YouTube, any line that has stations announced by whoever does the , is now the set default for those station announcements. For example, that means the in it's entirety is no longer announced by Catherine, with the exception for the destination announcements.
  4. How come when some buses get into accidents, they are repaired rather quick and sent back into service, while others stay on "hold" at Eastchester for 3-4 years?
  5. Ever since NJ Transit abandoned the original Boonton Line, there's also no direct bus replacement from Bay St, Arlington, or Rowe St to Hoboken or Midtown.
  6. Update #2; Just got another reply back from the exam unit who told me the exam hasn't begun testing yet. So which is it, did it begin or did it not? This is confusing for absolutely no reason. One person in the exam unit says they did, the other says they didn't. Complaining aside, has anyone here ever been a B/O and go to school at the same time?
  7. Oh wait, I just took a look at the track map, there's no switches at Hoyt St between Crosstown & Fulton? Serious design flaw.
  8. Look at 0:33. Maybe its the angle of the camera but it appears the right headlight is dim.
  9. One of the headlights is broken already. Wow.
  10. You close them. 148th stays as a yard. The between 180th St & Dyre would also be abandoned since they have the lowest ridership in the system.
  11. Are 11-15 retired? Whoever just updated CPTDB says they are.
  12. EDIT: Nvm, I see that some units were loaned to MTA Bus in July 2020 and the tracker associated with them lists them as out of service.
  13. Thanks, one more R179 this time both interior & exterior. TO FAR ROCKAWAY VIA FULTON ST LCL THE NEXT STOP IS ACQEDUCT RACETRACK 1:21 PM Exterior: FAR ROCKAWAY MOTT AV QUEENS BLVD LCL 63 ST/6 AV LCL via FULTON ST
  14. Oh I saw you made the font thought it was ready. Let me get it in R179 specs then.
  15. They couldn't tow them as one complete set?
  16. Yeah, I'm shocked about 19137. It didn't even have that much damage.
  17. R211 Interior: TO 168 ST via CENTRAL PK W THE NEXT STOP IS 7 AV/53 ST 9:03 AM Luminator Horizon: B68 LONG ISLAND CITY B68 via C I AV B68 via WINSDOR TERRACE
  18. Did they split up the R211 set with one staying at CI and the other going to Pitkin?
  19. Glad someone said it. I'm all for keeping jobs, but if they aren't being used to help the system, then why do we continue to get stuck in this cycle? The union dosent want anything to change and it impedes s evolution into the future. Like what is the point of station agents anymore? Most of them sit there on their phones doing nothing and get paid $30/hr. They should be Wayfinder agents, help people on the platforms, redirect people to shuttle buses, etc.
  20. 7271 is still on property to my knowledge, no word if its being scrapped or repaired.
  21. Nope, it got fully gutted out. It doesn't even have rear wheels.
