    Does anyone have an actual source of information about the maintenance fleet? I missed this one before it was removed.
  2. texassubwayfan555
    I thought the MTA never used that functionality.
  3. texassubwayfan555
    I am just saying that the MTA should start the process sooner rather than later, knowing how long the process of procuring new subway cars takes. I hope they don't wait until the R68s are falling apart to replace them.

    What is this, I see it here a lot. Send them to the NYTM! /s

    The R262 and R268 will replace the last SMEEs. They are still in the planning phase, but IMO I think the order for those cars should be further underway considering how long the process of getting new subway trains takes.

    Why would any subway buff want to even become a train operator?
  7. texassubwayfan555
    These guys should just stick to OpenBVE.

    What happened on car 5551?
  9. texassubwayfan555
    The R211 be sounding like a steam train LOL.
  10. texassubwayfan555
    Will the transit museum get dibs on a R46 set?
  11. texassubwayfan555
    Are any of these systems going to accept OMNY is the future?
  12. texassubwayfan555
    Why is this thread labeled as Systemwide CBTC when CBTC is not even planned to cover the whole subway system?
  13. texassubwayfan555
    And don't forget about future compatibility with platform doors.
  14. texassubwayfan555
    Slightly off topic, but will the NYTM receive a R46 set when they get retired?
  15. texassubwayfan555
    What is neoliberalism exactly?
  16. texassubwayfan555
    The R142 has some differences from the R142A that might complicate reusing the R188 design, most notably the propulsion. I also think and R211 style FIND LCD screens and exterior side LED signs should be added as part of a refurbishment.

    is the internal NYCT designator for the Rockaway Park Shuttle.

    There have even been multiple proposals to connect it by a tunnel to the subway system. Off topic, but my city (Houston Texas) is building a large BRT network, but a few people think a city of 2 million people (7 million in the greater urban area) should be building heavy rail for some reason.
  19. texassubwayfan555
    But the R68/As are newer than the R46.
  20. texassubwayfan555
    Sigh, and in the largest city in this country as well.

    The TA should have used the current staff shortage as a reason to convince the union to allow systemwide OPTO Some systems outside of the U.S. have them. They answer questions and guide passengers during rush hour. And on the MTR, platform conductors even control the doors instead of the driver during peak times.
  22. texassubwayfan555
    I still don't get why people think NYC is so special that it needs to have conductors on all the subway trains. London and Paris have old systems but have been using one person operation for over 20 years!
  23. texassubwayfan555
    What is Mercury?
  24. texassubwayfan555
    Will they even get set up for CBTC anytime soon?
  25. texassubwayfan555
    I still do this as I don't know what things deserve their own threads.
