    I’ve been seeing videos of the R211 testing and I noticed something, unlike the previous NTT cars, the R211’s can burn-in test and passenger info test without actually opening the doors. Pretty neat.

    It seems like it was keyed open from the inside so one door panel can open, leading announcements to play & synchronizing with the program signed up.

    There is a pair of hooligans on the Fulton line kicking out the R46’s cab windows. 3 sets of R46’s out of service yesterday! Causing gaps in service. Whoever on this website knows of these people, REPORT them. 

    Transit Tech High School kids (and surprisingly, 85% of them are railfans who has pages on Instagram), they come out of school everyday around 2:30 PM to do stuff like this.

    Shuttle buses are currently running between Atlantic Avenue and Bay Ridge, on the entire (R) line in Brooklyn. Express and local buses are being used.

    If any busfans are planning to fan this, just don't, and please, don't ride the buses. Save the seats for those that are trying to get to/from their destinations after a day of chaos and tragedy. It is simply not worth the OMG4KHDRAREEXCLUSIVE videos and pictures you all want to get.....

    Too late for that, there was a flock of kids there filming the buses not too long ago.

    There’s 3 R160’s on the (N) and 2 Siemens sets on the (Q) !!

    That doesn't surprise me considering how many R46s were pulled from service in the past week due to mechanical problems (at least 2-3 trains per day removed on each the (N) / (W) and (Q)), and the increased vandalism on those lines.

    April Fools!

    Seems that the paper (Q) was brought back in image at least last week. It was on an R68 and it has a capital Q in a big marker size. 

    This is giving me R32 Q vibes when the route flipdot broke and they had to use a piece of paper taped on it labeled as "Q"

    The 68 uses vertical route rollsigns for the front, back and side while the 46 uses horizontal route rollsigns for the front and back. I guess they have to craft one at the sign shop or get one from the older 68 vertical rollsigns.

    CIY has spares, although they can make new signs at 207 St Shop

  6. The 32 Final Run went smooth with some foamers yelling at the top of their lungs along with the BIE at 14-Union Sq,

    MTA and the Museum Crew were nice enough to where they sent ANOTHER 32 at Brighton Beach next to the Farewell set, they ran non-revenue trips back and forth between Brighton Beach & Kings Hwy via Brighton EXP for people to get photos and videos of them.

    Today’s run went smoothly. I’m happy

    Since that run started after Christmas, a lot of people stood home to spend time with their parents instead of going to the 32. It was definitely more calm and peaceful than last week

    The (Q) has a regular R160 for the day today. 8797-8793/9418-9422. And Also “Cuomo” wrapped R160 9192-9188 is out of service until further notice due to yesterday’s Battery fire at Coney Island Yard.

    I saw this set on the (E) today as a 179 tripper around 7 PM, seems like they took it out of service afterwards.

    First off, I was gonna do a quick edit on my post saying that not all LFS HEV are removed at this time and to expect all buses to be pulled by the end of the night.

    Second, I know for sure I'm not gonna trust a discord post that looks like someone that says one thing when it could be another thing, especially if it doesn't look like a reliable source.

    Stop taking everything posted seriously.

    Everything noted in the forums here goes to that Discord Server full with people giving false information, expect more of this tomfoolery

    3936 MJQ to Gun Hill. 

    All these busheads that HIGHLY RELY on a tracker to track glitches are making my head hurt since those people always say these "so-called transfers & moves" without valid confirmation

    Please folks going forward do not list anything that is a "transfer" unless it's seen in person or it's listed on the system. The constant glitches on the tracker are not reliable at all for anyone to be calling it a transfer.

    This. See if it's real by going outside instead of staying at home relying on a bus tracker that has flaws at times

    The one time I tried to fan a (D) Yankees special, it ended at Herald Square… I was so disappointed…

    My (D) baseball special ended up going to Euclid today along with 4 other trains due to the weekend GO
