Well duh, I feel silly now for not realizing that. I realized the Q after I had sent the message because of the M, but not put together the chain of the N or C and E.

I noticed that the 6, C, E, N, and Q trains all have new schedules as of April 28th. Logically the G, 7, M and J/Z got them for the L work (the L's new schedule has yet to be published by the MTA). Any ideas as to why they've issued a whole bunch of new supplements?

Not when I was there over the weekend, but they may have done so in the days after. I'd have to go back and look.

Due to the L Project, trains will now run to 96 St-2 Av on weekends for the next year or so. Last weekend was the first time this service pattern became part of the 's schedule. Enjoy! New R160 on the with I <3 NY ads A southbound train at 86 St A 96 St-bound at 86 St and at the same time And another

The timetable has been updated for the L Project. It can be found here: http://web.mta.info/nyct/service/pdf/tmcur.pdf Oddly the timetable has not yet been updated as of posting this...

On the left is a hat I got from the Eagle Team that does the M86 SBS, as we're somewhat friendly with them as the bus stops right in front of my building. The hat on the right I got a few days ago from a friend; he got it from someone else who was selling a lot of transit merch.

Surprisingly from what I saw, ops seemed to be going fairly well. The train leaving Union Square had plenty of room towards the rear, and neither Bedford nor Union Square had massive crowds. Whether that was a fluke or what can be expected, time will tell, but I have to say I was surprised.

The funny part was they didn't even scroll. It was just cut-off (sorry for the double responses)

That was an R143.

Surprisingly, the I was on from Lorimer St to 1 Av did not experience any massive crowds or issues when single-tracking. Enjoy!

Enjoy this ride on an R143 train with nice and loud howling motors!

On a recent short visit to Chicago, I was able to experience the 'L' for my first time. Enjoy! We took the 'L' in from O'Hare On board Clark/Lake, my first actual stop in the Loop I was a big fan of the old signage at Quincy At the corner of the Loop, under the Tower 18 interlocking Lake Street Bridge Washington/Wells Station Another shot from the street near Downtown Another shot of Quincy Merchandise Mart Photos taken while filming: On the Loop from the back of a Pink Line train Tower 12 A Pink Line train near Tower 18 A Green Line train near Lake and Wabash A train crossing the Chicago River Another train over the Chicago River A 5000-Series Purple Line train leaving Washington/Wabash A Green Line train arriving ...And an Orange Line train arriving from the other direction A Pink Line train arriving Orange Line near Downtown A Brown Line train departing Quincy And a Pink Line train arriving At Quincy Departing Around the Loop on an Orange Line train State/Lake A Brown Line train

Today I was able to catch a few nice howling R143s on the . Enjoy!

So, the destination signs are...special, to say the least...

My friend saw it heading to Pitkin last night!

Remember, it was originally for the to also run to Southeastern Queens. Hell, the TA was in no rush to tear down the El but the residents and businesses in Jamaica pressured them into tearing it down earlier than planned.

The IRT had done it before the IND! When the 7 Av Line was extended south of Times Square, they create 7th Avenue South to run the subway under and literally cut straight through the West Village

Given that 3242-38 was spotted heading to Pitkin late Thursday night, I wouldn't be surprised if 3247-46 arrived Monday, with the same deliveries happening like last week, to end up with 3247-43 heading to Pitkin next Thursday as well. If that indeed happens, I'd assume 3238-47 would be on the test track in the near future.

I tested it at 33 St (obviously it didn't accept), but it read my phone immediately. I think once they open it from employee-only testing to the general public at the end of May we'll be able to see just how nicely (or not nicely, but more likely nicely) tap-to-pay works. Also, I feel like we've all had the time when you've swiped, thought it went through, and gone to go through the turnstile and been whacked by the bar...

Really a shame that this is even a thought. So far, Byford's done some great work (like Save Safe Seconds and SPEED), and it'd be pretty sucky to lose him over petty politics, especially considering how much he's tried to avoid getting caught up in it. One can only hope he can reason with the State and/or Governor himself.

Hasn't that issue been fixed? Also if they ran via the it'd be via the Bridge...

I've never seen that used before. I've always wondered why they never used it for disruption reroutes!

Thank you! It was really cool to be able to get a look under the car and see all that's going on in person
