  1. It's partially because the transfer announcement "a free transfer is also available to the (F) train by walking to the lexington avenue - 63rd street station and using your MetroCard" makes the entire 59 St announcement really long,

    when the announcement isn't started AS SOON AS the train enters 59th, the announcement is still playing when the doors open. I think the problem is that they can't easily play the "This is a Bronx/Pelham Bay Park/Parkchester-bound..." announcement when that happens. Some solve that by waiting until the entire announcement completes before opening the doors.

    I might be wrong though.

     

    You're correct......right b4 the doors close....it would say " This is a Bronx bound" or "This is a Pelham Bay Park bound"!

  3. On the newer buses (i.e. the Orion VIIs and the Novabus LFSAs) there are announcements when the doors open and close. The know when the doors close the announcement is "Doors Closing", but for whatever reason I can't really make out the announcement when the doors are opening. Does anyone know what it is?

     

    "Touch yellow tape to open door" "Doors opening"

     

    On the LFS its "Touch yellow handle to open doors"
