1. You came in too slow dynamic brakes drop out under 15 MPH. 2 that's right you got Ecam which gives you are hard time when you release and try to get it back. Also harder going at slower speeds. You will develop your own way the more you work with them. I use to just take 20 to 30 pounds stopping it.
-
All I can say about the future classes. They will slow down in hiring C/R so they can hire more T/O's. So big classes of T/O's will be called so.
-
The crew office has been good in the B div and A div they getting better. If you live in Bkyn or Queens in A Div you will see the 7 Line a lot.
-
Its always better to pick the division closest to you. Your going to work long hours so your commute has to be a factor. If you live near coney island as an example can you handle a 4 AM report at 241 Wakefield in the BX
-
We have a T/O shortage in A div do to high turn over for various reasons. If are stuck in a Div you don't like just keep writing a request to switch. When you have enough senority to pick a job in the other division pick it and then yes school car and post over again exept your just learning about the div and equipment.

The 2 is one of those lines thats will made or break you. Look foward seeing you down the road a Brownhornet and questions in box me.
-
You will see me I'm PM 2 Iine TSS.
-
What we say in there should stay in the Crewroom forum. Welcome to RTO!
-
Also remember to write down all the reasons for your OT in the comments or you may not get paid.
-
Yeah RTOman I agree you can have fun with the job. However got to be on point at all times. Its too crazy the simple stuff I deal with the supt tries to turn it into a bigger problem.
-
We got one Student put the train BIE 3 times. We got a few other new T/O's with issues. My hand is hurts from all the paper work 4 reports since yesterday 3 Improper train operation cases and a 12-9.
-
Ok now this new class of A div T/O's got us TSS'S and Supts working overtime. We had 3 incidents and one of them had 2 of the 3 today.
-
They not harsh on you while posting. However when your on your own then thats where the real punishment happens.
-
Year RTOman one person getting notice already. However to be fair every class got that one.
-
I hope they didn't give Tommy too much problems over it but they did send a Road TSS after him.
-
The overrun at TSQ was done by a class they let the regular T/O sit and took over. I guess they hijacked a train because 240 wouldn't give them one. Christopher St was by a Student T/O. The same student let the controller go 2 weeks ago.
-
I hated the Yard when I started. I use to book off on yard jobs so I always stayed on the road. However thats just me I loved ponding the road. I still miss it and regret this move to TSS. Even when I operate now its only a short distance.
-
It happens in the B Div as well. Just more on the DL.
-
Ok now who overran TSQ by 2 door panels on the #1 line N/B ? Someone else overran Christopher St S /B.
-
They supposed to change the TSS jobs so the yards are covered.
-
Timing is everything. I would have been in good shape if I stayed a C/R or T/O. However not doing bad as a TSS since last year 15 TSS were promoted or retired. The best part is still no pick so come pick time it should look good.
-
Yeah I talk to her sometimes
-
They going to need lots of new A Div C/R's/ T/O's and TSS'S in the next few months. Lots of movement going on.
-
Two 12-9's Friday. First S/B 1 rumor has it this was another student at 86 St. Then we had a S/B 2 at 34 Street. If it was one interval sooner that would have been a student.
-
Nice to meet you guys. I heard you all did very well. Even the train I rode was good. I'm a TSS for both 2 and 5 Lines so any question feel free to talk to me. Keep up the good work!
