  1. Ahh ok. But, I am assuming the M125 codes are top secret (I just learned them)
  2. According to this article, it is built with provision for rail. See below about routing: Extending to White Plains would be wasting money. However, I was thinking that a branch to Nanuet (Exit 14 Park and Ride?) may be a good idea. In terms of DMUs, would GTWs be best? Maybe a railcar with a higher capacity (GTWs can only have three cars) Thoughts on the bus routes?
  3. Another idea is to run the 98 from Suffern to Nycak via Montvale as a south Rockland connector, then have the 99 cross the Tappan Zee to Tarrytown (or run on the tramway that would have bus lanes) @LaGuardia Link N Tra @B35 via Church @Deucey @OIG119 @engineerboy6561 @Cait Sith @gtNovaBusRTS9369 @EastFlatbushLarry thoughts on the L96's rolling stock? Would DMUs be best, or would it be more feasible to electrify it. If DMUs, which ones?
  4. yes It does stop at Helen Hayes, I just couldn't put it on the map. The map shows that it stops at Yeager The 92 is unchanged except for the extension to Piermont yes it runs through Helen Hayes (I edited the map). The 99 runs through W Haverstraw yes it runs through Congers to better serve that area, but otherwise unchanged yes. I din't know that, thanks for the advice! I've deleted it off the map. It is meant to cross the central area of the county, which is currently a transit desert.
  5. One edit: I changed the name of the Light rail to the L96, not R96, to distinguish it from the buses. @B35 via Church @Lex @engineerboy6561 @Kriston Lewis @WillF40PH @Mnrr6131 Thoughts?
  6. Hi all! This thread is now being combined with my other thread here: Please make all your requests there! @Deucey @SevenEleven @Harry @Cait Sith or one of the other mods, could you merge these two threads (as well as my Rollsign thread) and rename it Jova42R's Subway and Bus Signs? Thank you! @Jova42R
  7. Here's the M28: Link: https://piskel-imgstore-b.appspot.com/img/3d6b1226-95f2-11ea-98a8-b7af828d1581.gif Piskelapp deleted my work on the M18 and B72 (I had to switch browsers because my computer got hacked), so I will get those to you ASAP.
  8. @553 Bridgeton is there weekend rail service on the NJCL? In addition, what is service like on the academy operated 8xx routes?
  9. Here are the Q19 codes 190 Q19FLUSHING MAIN ST via ASTORIA BL 191 Q19ASTORIA 21 ST via ASTORIA BL 192 Q19EAST ELMHURST 102 ST via ASTORIA BL
  10. Hi all! I have made a redesign of Transit of Rockland’s bus routes. The goal is to improve service within the county, without having way too many routes. In addition, I have proposed a Rockland LRT that would run fromTarrytown to Sparkill, before splitting and running to Blauvelt and Harrington Park. This would most likely run DMUs, although @Collin and @B35 via Church would know better than me. This map DOES NOT include HudsonLink or the 3 TOR loops. map: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewer?hl=en&mid=1r1riyOY2yOI-0cmDIDbiNgdLMkCEdE0T&ll=41.12856620718155%2C-74.02538485000002&z=11 Thoughts?
  11. They are TOP secret. But, yes, some people, including me know them. PM me why you need to know them, and if I get permission, I will share them. Also, don't macro post.
  12. Yes I am quite active drawing maps! This map is just so big that I have to work on it for a long time. Most maps I make are quite small, so this is a big-ish project
  13. I'm working on a Map for this, so it will be much easier to explain then, but my BASIC plan is: Atlantic to GCT with a branch to Penn: 4 tracks (possibly 6) branch at Broome St with a tunnel to Newport NJ, connection to HBLR. Penn to GCT connector: 3 tracks connects to a new lower level of GCT that runs from 3 Av to Madison, has 10 tracks. track connections to Sunnyside Yard track connections to ESA and MNR Used for some NJT and some Amtrak trains as a termination location. This frees up space in Penn for more service West Side Line LOCAL service from Riverdale to 14th re-activated High Line 4 tracks, some LIRR trains will run down the center tracks and terminate at 14th St. provisions for a tunnel to NJ from 14 St HBLR gets rebuilt with 4 tracks tunnel from 34 St, via MOTBY and St George, to Bay Ridge track connections to HBLR connector to the Broome St Tunnel from Harborside provisions to connect with a proposed Staten Island LRT System (see my post here) Regional Metro takeover of the following lines: Port Washington Far Rockaway West Hempstead Long Beach Rolling Stock would be either a TMU (tri-modal multiple unit) with the following power sources Third Rail Catenary Diesel would this be needed, or could we electrify everything? Any thoughts? @engineerboy6561 @LaGuardia Link N Tra @Deucey @R32-DTrain @WillF40PH @Mnrr6131 @S78 via Hylan @BM5 via Woodhaven
  14. @lirr42 said to try this link: https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1U586sl6xydXvAKOJAiXvDh7uwfMnNo13
  15. Still can't access it... I like the gist of the plan, but there are a few things that a map would really clear up. Maybe try copy-pasting the link directly form your browser?
  16. @lirr42 before I even get in to the buses (I don't know LI that well, @67thAve @BM5 via Woodhaven and others would know better), I have 3 major gripes with this plan: How on earth are you going to build some of your LRT/BRT lines. Some are fine, but some are running down roads that are packed with traffic and have virtually no room for a median-running line. And as @B35 via Church and @engineerboy6561 have said, IF IT DOESN'T HAVE ITS OWN MEDIAN, ITS NOT LRT\BRT Why is there such a complicated numbering scheme? Just make 2-3 letters per county and cap it at that (maybe N and A for Nassau and S and U for Suffolk)? Why are there no buses to Queens? That is a MAJOR source of revenue. In addition, any good NICE redesign would have an express bus to Manhattan.
  17. Sorry, there's been a lot going on. I'm in the process of making them, and I will hopefully have them by tonight. If not, I PROMISE I will have them by tomorrow.
  18. If we actually do this, I think that it should 100% be looped in with TriboroRX, Lower Montauk, and Rockaway Beach. However, how would this work in terms of service patterns? Thoughts?
  19. I like your plan, but I can't access the map! Can you try copy-pasting the link?
  20. It does not serve the University Av Corridor, which is where my proposed tram goes. @engineerboy6561 @Collin @Mnrr6131, or @WillF40PH would know better than me, but would it be better to extend the line up Goulden Av (the ROW of the aqueduct) to a terminus by Bainbridge Hospital, or is the current proposed terminus at VA Hospital better? Also, y'all may know this better than me: South of Tremont Av, is there room for a tram in the median or not?
  21. WEST BRONX LIGHT RAIL The Rationale The West Bronx is rather underserved, with the being the only subway line, all the way on Jerome Av. Therefore, the , the main bus line through the area is usually packed with people. In addition, there is the old ROW of the Croton Aqueduct, running right alongside University Av. So, this corridor has massive ridership potential (as seen from paced buses), an already built ROW, and has no direct subway service. These are great criteria for a LRT line, so I think that it is warranted. The Specifics Fleet CAF Urbos 3 As there would not be catenary wires along 181 St (east of FW Av), the Urbos 3 is the best model to run. TPH Rush: 15TPH Non-rush: 10TPH Overnight: 5TPH Yard Half of Devoe Park becomes yard. All maintenance is done here, however there will be 2 layup tracks at 181 St for trams to lay up.
