Please explain something to me: where did you get that Akzidenz Grotesk font from?! You have basically used them in all your strip map signs and I'd like to get a hold of that font so I can work on some side TA projects myself.
-
If you don't see them in plain sight at a station, you can ask the clerk for one. You could also go to 3 Stone Street in Manhattan and you can take as much as you want.

Hey I was thinking: you should make that Transit Memorabilia thread a sticky so it'd be easier to find and for people to post their stuff, even though it's a couple of years old. Just a thought.

You bring up a good point right there! Lol

Thanks for sharing this with us. Good work! :tup:

I am officially jealous of everyone here because they have something as awesome as rollsigns! LMAO just kidding! I have a few signs and timetables and maps but with my cell phone camera, you guys would laugh compared to the shots you have. I'm getting a camera in a few weeks so I'll have my shots up by then. In the meantime keep posting up your pics guys! I am also looking into buying a pair of slants and even a R40M and an R42 to make that infamous 4460/4665 mismatch! islandmodelworks.com have them in HO scale and a car only costs $55.

Thanks. Because people are gonna complain about the
train being too long of a line if it went to Staten Island, then why not have the 
go there instead? It would eliminate that slow ferry ride, and although it's a peaceful ride, it's too slow. The could operate via North Shore and the Main Line, while the 
could operate via Main Line express. -
Thanks. It's all apart of my own ideas for improving service in the subway if it were up to me, such as creating a four-track Nassau Street Line for local and express service, the
to Staten Island, and a super-express from Broadway Junction to Sutphin Boulevard, with only one stop at Woodhaven Boulevard. -
Yup, the area's not bad but it tends to be sketchy. Same goes for East New York and some parts of Bushwick. That's why when I go railfanning there are some lines I really avoid. Not to be biased to the Bronx but the only line that I have railfanned in the Bronx by myself was the
because that borough is really sketchy, especially South Bronx. -
Lol...don't worry about it. I don't like the station myself as it looks somewhat decrepit with the closed-off mezzanine and crap but IMO it looks better than those stations south of Broadway Junction with those ugly beige tiles!
Utica Avenue is another station I get off at if I take the express, but a lot of hoodlums hang around the plaza at Malcolm X and Fulton so I'm not too keen being in that area at any time of day (unless I have my skateboard
). -
Yup, I love the Akzidenz Grotesk font instead of the ugly MTA Helvetica.
-
Wow...way to notice the typo.

Where'd you get the number 2 bullet from. Dang that's one sexy-looking number 2!

Hey man, thanks for posting that link with the decals. But since the models on that site are cheaper than MTH, do you think that the car bodies will fit over MTH's chassis if you took the bodies off or no?
-
Yes. Send the kidnappers.
I'm joking! :-D But I am Imdanumber1 from WP and YouTube.

Really?!?!?! You're December 18th as well? Pretty nice. I worked with someone last summer who was also December 18th and he was older than me!!!
