The fact of the matter is here we have someone who works I side the MTA passing us Info as it happens. And most of the time the info is legit. Yeah sometimes the info goes another direction. Name one source with 100% accuracy. I'll wait. Till then I suggest chilling out. Why? Well it can only take one person being a troll to give us 0 inside sources. Now you're not a troll, but things are subject to change, right? So let me ask this, what so important that you had to go this route? Like for years we've been good. We get info, most of it sticks. What makes you so special to change everything? Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

No. That makes them true untill the MTA changes their mind. They could keep the plan, or change it. Doesn't mean the posts are initially false. Its the latest info given. Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

Which 8-car train? There's two of them. Lol Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

Yup. It wasn't long between ENY's initial post about day 2, and someone posting pics of the service notice online. Tonight and tomorrow. Thursday also I believe. Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

Oh you're points here are completely valid my friend. But given the turmoil that the 179 has gone thru since being built, rejected, built again, etc. All of that, plus all that is happening now, Is not making Bombardier look good. If they turn out to be great cars, then good for us, but how late are these? Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

In a way this is why I'm hoping CRRC can make quality cars here in the US. Hyundai-Rotem had their hiccup in Philly with the SL-Vs that may make them look a little worrisome to many in regards to if they can meet requirements. To level out the plating field more may help with getting affordable, well-built fleets.I use to be a huge fan of Bombardier since the arrival of their 62s back in the 80s. Now I see a falling player in a game that is seeing it come down to the final two so to speak Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk Although this is true, did the 160s go thru what the 179s have gone thru prior to arriving onto the property? Gotta look at the whole pic. Yeah the 160s took a year, but how long did they take to be built and delivered? Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

Alston and Kawasaki as far as companies with previous business with NYCT. There's others but who knows if they can produce a railcar for NYC Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

I always bring that up. And the fact that now you'll have Rockaway trains more crowded until Rockaway blvd because of it as well. No one listens. Even if you're from Rockaway and remember when the C use to go to Rockaway. No one listens. Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

THIS...is the most epic face palm comment I've ever heard in my 39 years! Sir, I tip my had to you and would ask permission to use this phrase instead of just my usual "yoink!" When wanting to take and use a comment! I'm now going to continue to laugh out loud at work at this! Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

So the EMI is 50 consecutive miles? Didnt know that. Is the revenue still 30 consecutive days? Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

Wow. All that for an L put-in with the wrong program at first. That explains the white on the ground. Not snow. The foam is real! Lmao! Smh Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

The 2 sets of R32s and the 1 R68 Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

I've never seen it in the TOD. And every NTT C I've seen get extended east of Euclid had the train crew resign it as an A Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

One bus is for riders between Metropolitan and local stops to Myrtle Bway except for Fresh Pond. The second is for all stops Fresh Pond to Myrtle Bway (no Metropolitan) and the third as mentioned is express Metropolitan to Flushing with one stop at Jefferson on the L.

On the 143 and 160s thats where some cbtc equipment is. So putting an led screen there won't work. Its not empty space Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

You may know the difference between the New Techs, but your original post says so much different about your story.125th and St Mich on the A. The stalled train you said was an R143. Now its an R142. In the B division. I get the point you were originally trying to make. Any rail car can break down. But....... Yeah. Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk I would love to see that too. Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

I think you may mean an R160.On that note, its not really that certain trains can't run in certain areas causing trouble. That NTT would've broke down anywhere. The issue in Montegue is clearance. Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

I got a feeling those 4 ten car sets are to eliminate the need for the 32s and that one 68 they run on the A. A good assumption is that they are going to have them on the A for that reason and to keep them basically maintained by the same yards. I also assume that its only at CI since that is a major shop. Gotta have those guys go over the train and learn it. Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

Because there's consistent ridership for those trips dating back to the PBL days under Jamaica Buses. Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

Just saw that right now. Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

They're also updating the A Originally: A 8th Ave Express To 207 St/Manhattan Then: A 8th Ave Exp Inwood-207th St Now: A Fulton St Exp 8th Ave Exp Inwood-207th St Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

So someone on fb told me that buses dont have a parking brake...... Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

What the French toast is that all about? Seriously? Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

Yup. You're right Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk
