  1. The connection from the BMT Jamaica Line to the BMT Myrtle Avenue Line used by the just east of Myrtle Avenue station was completed rebuilt from the ground up in 2018 (I think). Additionally, parts of the Babylon Branch that were grade separated in the 1970s/80s are elevated. There are mostly just short sections at stations to make space for parking below, but there's also a long uninterrupted elevated section between Lindenhurst and Copiague.
  2. A few days ago I was able to ride from Atlantic Terminal to Queens Village with just a MetroCard. I have also used it for a few trips from Atlantic Terminal to Nassau County which required me to change at Jamaica by buying a ticket from Jamaica to wherever my final destination was and using my MetroCard to ride between Jamaica and Atlantic Terminal.
  3. This map doesn't even include all closed stations. Several entire closed lines are missing.
  4. The announcements for the 42nd Street are unchanged. The moving platform warning at Times Square is still there.
  5. The passageway is open now. It was built where Track 3 used to be.
  6. When the 42nd Street reopens with the new platforms will it also have six car trains or are those coming later?
  7. Are you sure it's not Huntington? I know they have their own local buses, but if this wasn't that then I have no idea.
  8. This is great news! It's probably the best thing he's done anytime recently. I'll leave this here for anyone interested.
  9. I heard this in The Bronx on a to Utica Avenue.
  10. Here's an announcement I heard on the today. "The electronic strip maps are in service." Anyone else know about this? I never heard this when the old and strip maps were in service.
  11. The cars are being stored across 2nd Avenue from Costco. This is a picture I took from outside the fence.
  12. I think you're still supposed to. This is because although the farebox is inaccessible, the machines are still working and there is no need to access the farebox anyway.
  13. Perhaps the light rail system could better serve passengers if it had a branch to Nanuet and Spring Valley and/or was extended to White Plains. That might be too much of a HudsonLink duplicate, however. As for rolling stock DMUs like the Stadler GTWs on River LINE in New Jersey would be most appropriate. I don't think the system would have enough capacity to justify electrification.
  14. I got that same train at Jay St and was going to do a round trip to 207th and back.
