  1. If we had a normal summer, I would hazard a guess beach destinations would have been a priority for this and/or next month.
  2. They finally fixed their little error on the 6, forgetting Longwood Ave.
  3. The change over to Metrocard required them to completely replace all the turnstiles in the system, that’s why it took three years.
  4. And, completely and totally out of left field... ADD..... Howard Beach-JFK. your updated complete listing.

  5. Okay... flushing line is online and surprisingly, the Franklin shuttle is online as well as is York Street on the F.
  6. We’re supposedly at 52%, and at the very least, QBP is online.
  7. Court Square-23rd (AKA “45th Road-Courthouse Square” & “23rd-Ely”) is now online. add a stop to 7, E, G and M
  8. Well, lesson to be learned.... never buy from Bombardier ever again...
  9. Well, they only ever publicly would said “by the end of the year”, so I guess that’s still within their promises
  10. It does gain Franklin Avenue, since it shares fare control with Botanic Garden. (which also means Prospect Park, so the B and Q gain as well)
  11. I used my feminine charms... I got it off the OMNY website, they updated the map on the rollout page.
  12. We have a June list! complete the Flushing line the Astoria line the broadway line as far south as at least 34th, maybe further. (so 5th, 57th/7th and 49th are a definite) the Franklin Shuttle the F at York Street.
  13. Every few months, crew members pick which line they want to work on. They tend to not jump between lines in between these “picks”. So if more crews on one line are unavailable, that line’s service lives are reduced in comparison to other lines.
  14. Update again, 40th/Lowrey, 33rd/Rawson and Vernon-Jackson are now list as online. three stations remain.
  15. you guys all say that.... and yet; (clears throat) Your attention please... The 7 is now online from Main Street all the way to 46th/Bliss. Only six stops are left to complete the 7.
  16. Well, I men I’ve spent a lot of time on computer science and hardware stuff and I’m pretty sure there is a way to do this.
  17. If they really wanted to, one could come up with a procedure that could allow one person to do the actual install alone. Some low density, low traffic stations with only a handful on entrance turnstiles could be done slowly over, say a week. Done right... they could wire up places like Broad St and Bowery and no one would be at risk... The nearest station to my house is Forest Avenue. We have a grand total of 3 turnstiles. How long would that take?
  18. because that's something called "Logic"... and we plebs are not allowed to use logic on our own, we must accept the logic of our God Emperor Cuomo. Same argument I had with them about what happens when a train has to be taken out of service after 1 AM, hasn't finished it's run and there's trains behind it with passengers still on. I used logic of "let them on the following trains, the didn't want to get off." They just said orders are orders, they have to leave.
  19. Well, they could always do something overnight... make use of the time.
  20. The long and the short of is his royal majesty, the Emperor Cuomo, decided something to do something about the state of the subway... and gave them a weekend to figure out how to do it. the plan’s flaws are more numerious than it’s benefits. Once 1 AM hits, the trains are exit only. Not the just stations, the trains two. I actually asked them what would happen if a train had to be taken OOS after 1AM but before it got to the last stop. if there was a train with passenger behind the stalled one, would the passengers on the first train be allowed on the second. They said NO. The trains are exit only. It would seem the passengers were to be left to their own devices and told to get out of the station. Now, since they did not get off the train be choice, a reasonable plan would make an exception, considering this is practically a cardinal sin. More so when you consider this may be a violation of the ADA. consider this... an F has to be removed from service at Smith/9th. Passengers are told they have to get off and leave the station... and one of them happens to be in a wheelchair... are they so stubborn in their rules to have to carry this poor sap all the way down the stairs instead of letting them get on another train? this is what you do when you plan something step 1: “How many ways can this go wrong?” step 2: “How many ways can this go wrong... that I didn’t think of at step 1?”
