  1. Was the d-type triplex a stationary on the 16th?
  2. I came to the Parade of Trains today at 11AM. I got to ride on all 3. I was on the last BMT Standard before they took it out of service. Did it ever come back into service today? I also met @Dj Hammerstoday. I thought the D-type triplex were meant to be a stationary train at the Parade of Trains. Did I miss anything from the 16th?
  3. I went to the Parade Of Trains today. Look at my videos:
  4. Why can't the Parade Of Trains ride the whole Brighton Express?
  5. It also mentions a shorter round trip to Ocean Parkway. I'm talking about will there be special Brighton Express service for people commuting to the Parade Of Trains or is there only the regular weekend Brighton Local service?
  6. Is there going to be special express service on the Brighton line for the Parade of Trains at Brighton Beach?
  7. Where can I find a audio file of the automated announcements for the line?
  8. That MTA employee told me that the 5-car R179s will only be enough for 4-5 trains.
  9. Why would they be more reliable than an employee?
  10. The extension is not a bad idea at all. It will make it less of a walk to get to Samsung 837. From walking around an avenue and 2 blocks to walking just a small block!
  11. That's what the employee on the first car of the Far Rockaway train told me.
  12. According to an employee, the R179s are NOT coming to the . All the 5-car R179s are going to the to replace it's remaining R46s. The R32s and R46s are shared between the and to help with crowding on the . The is NOT going to 10-cars.
  13. I trying to go on the 17th. The 16th isn't an option for me.
  14. This was on a train? I thought the has all R142s. Why was there manual announcements?
  15. I was looking at things from a Broadway Junction point of view.
  16. I figured out the skip-stop. I looked at the Subway map more closely. The skips different stops than the and vise-versa. Why can't they do this in other parts of the subway? They should do skip-stop on the Brighton line () as well. Avenue M is a popular stop but if you wait for the at Newkirk Plaza, once you wait for the train to come, the train is already passed Prospect Park resulting in it not worth waiting for the at Newkirk Plaza and staying on the .
  17. What do you mean by "both skip each other's stops"? Is the whole difference between the and during rush hours east of myrtle Av when the is local and the is skip-stop? West of Myrtle Av, are skip-stop with the local. Why is it called skip-stop and not express?
  18. I did and it's not really telling me anything. I'm looking at the subway map now and it looks like the is skip-stop east of Myrtle Av with the making all local stops east of Myrtle Av and the and are both skip-stop west of Myrtle Av. Is this true?
  19. Then what's the difference between the and the ? And why does the stop at 121 St and not the ?
