2 Train Master

Agreed! Alstom propulsions suck. I hate that errrr-ahhh-errrrrr-EEEEEEE-errrrr-eeeeee sound especialy because the errrrrr-eeeeeee sound repeats and repeats. When it stops its errrrrr-eeeeee-errrrrrr-eeeeeee-errrrrrr-ah-ooooo

The bombardier propulsion on the R142A makes a good sound like er-ahhhhhhhhhhhh-mmmmmm-MMMMMMMM-MMMMMMMMMM and when it stops its like eeeerrrrrrr-eeeeerrrrrrrr-ahhhhhhhhhhh-eh.

The siemens souns good too. Its like errrrrrr-ahhhhhh-ooooooooooh and when it stops its like ahhhhhh-ooooooooh-eeeerrrrrrr.

Siemens and bombardier propulsions for life!!

Its a bootleg R-142 propulsion but with extra more annoying notes.At least the Bombs loud ass HVAC's are cover ups.

Does this work for Trainz 2009?

It should b\c it works in Trainz 2010!

Just doing some fixes...

to the

What is that object called in this pic?

May I request 2 things: http://www.nycsubway.org/perl/show?65820

1st request is the stairs which can be used for elevated and underground stations.

2nd request is a seperate railing spline b\c there are gaps when a catwalk spline is placed.

Why?

He doesn't like REAL EQUIPMENT! Those workhorses I miss them on the and they don't do bad on the though.

Maybe to you. I dont really give two sh*ts about the sound, as long as they can get me from Point A to Point B, its all good with me.

I could care less anyways since I ride 8th Av and Concourse.

I can't believe you guys like Alstom Onyx that s**T is annyoing as heck but at least with the Bombs its a coverup b\c their loud a$$ HVACS.

(E)xactly so it would be a waste.Has anyone been on an R142/A with a broken or malfunctioning/ed Strip Map? I haven't my 10yrs or so riding them either they were

1.Working or

2.Off(Electric Strip maps are not in service please listen to announcements and watch the display).

Yeah

R142 Alstom Onyx

R142A and 143 - Bombardier/Ad Tranz

R160 Alstom Onyx(but these repeat notes which is very annoying)

R160B-1(8843-9102) Siemens.

Whats the point of the FINDS anyways where else can the be re-routed except via the N/B.I rather have them trains have stripmaps b\c at least they won't be frozen they'll be off with words illuminated that's its not in use or they'll be on displaying the correct stops.But then again I don't ride the so I shouldn't care much.

If they were put on the fleet it would make sense.

Same way it's spelled and pronounced.

Windows Movie Maker takes a lot of quality out videos.Use 720p if you can!

The 68's are slowly moving the at this point, so there's no need to bump them again in the next couple of years.

And of course they're not entirely replacing the 32 fleet. The R32's are still in a really good shape and they also have to keep some 32's in spare, 'cause you never know when you need a spare.

The won't need many anyway b\c they're based from Coney.They can stay on the but I was saying they're ordering more cars than the 32's and 42's combined IF they go with the option order.

I was just making a point but the

Main Order 290 cars for Concourse

Option Order for 50 cars is it not obvious it's for the 42 replacement ENY.

Option Order 2 80 cars

bump 68's to to 207th service possibly since they'll be the next to retire since the 46's are going to SI.Sure they'll be some left in the subway.(Thats my take on what they should do).

Fictional NYC subway route using the Marta CQ312's this can change anytime they are 75 footers so I may use em or I'mma use the 46's.

Your guess is as good as mine.

Well, you have a possible total of 420 new cars. 290 base, 50 option 1, and 80 option 2. If all orders are exercised, you have between 85-105 new train sets in all. It all depends on how the cars are arranged within each set.

 

It is a very real possibility that part of this order could go to SAS. There are more than enough cars to replace the R32's and whatever else they will replace.

True I didn't realize that I forgot there is/are 230 or 240 32's left more then enough to replace them + the 50 cars Opt 1 which is kind of obvious it will be to replace the 50 42's and 80 cars for a possible option 2? Sounds like they're going to replace some 46's.

Idk but I think it'd be better to send the 290+ the option 2 to Concourse bumping the 68's to the b\c they're not ordering exactly to replace the amount of the 32's and 42's unless the becomes 10 car 60 footers.Something is fishy about that though.

Creative? What pieces have you seen? I have a few friends that has done pieces much more sicker than that. Being that you live in the Bronx I'm sure you've seen better. You should see some of the pieces around here. I gotta take a few pics and show you guys sometime.

Many but I can't draw for shit so anything that may seem shitty too you guys looks good to me b\c I know damn sure well I can't do creative art.I wish I knew how to bubble letter thats a cool form of art.But I've only seen one tagged train in person it was last year layed up I think at Union Tpke but it wasn't colored in it was like idk lol.

I think they should order more since the 46's may go very soon also.Maybe they'll order enough to replace the 46,32 and 42 fleet since some 46's are going to SI.

You guys may say its ugly or its whack but its creative all in all.How about you show some of your skills on a piece of paper or something.I say its nice b\c I'm not an artist.

They will just function as trackside signs since they are renameable. Because of that you will have to put invisible speed signs. Also the car markers with "car" underneath them are only used for reverse car movements on tracks used for layups. Those will be included as well. Normal car stop signs only have numbers

Ok then thats fine with me I careless about the car markers now.Can't wait!

Ok thats cool I've been using other car markers but they don't have "car" its just a number.Will the speed sign actually work as a speed limit or it'll just be a sign and we'll have to put invisible speed signs near it b\c JeffMorris's speed signs the trains hit them.

Ever since this thread has been stickied I haven't been catching up with all this amazing work b\c Sticky threads apparently don't show latest posts until you actually get in the Simulators section.I'm loving the stations and the progress.I have been working on a project secretely which is now not a secret anymore and I'm not sure if I asked or anyone else asked but will you developers make elevated speed signs? And hows the timer with the 1 and 2 shot GT going?

Ok can someone please tell me where green and bstyles and everyone else is getting there textures for there stations?

Take pictures if the beams and or station walls along with the platforms with your camera.Thats how its done for BVE and Trainz.

I lean towards the IND because of the speed,8th Ave. Line.

N/B is a killer I don't think trains even hit 30-35mph with an exception of flying in W4th and if the T/O keeps it wrapped coming in 14th around the curve.

IRT-All the way great service on the .

Very good rush hr service .

Good damn headways and grew up near Woodlawn !

the R62a r almost 30 years old they are very out dated, they didn't want too hold on too them because they want fully automated cars like the R142 143 160 They may get rid of them if they have the money for it in 2020

So! Just b\c they're using old school technology doesn't mean they aren't good.The 62/A's are probably performing better than the 46's which using updated technology.Almost 30 sheesh don't they look good and run good for their age? If nothing serious happens with those cars in the next 10yrs or so I can see them lasting till they're about 40-45.Samething goes with the Hippos.
