Of the NYC area pizza I really like that place (Famous Ray's) on i think 6th ave. and 11th St in the West Village area. It's made with 100% real cheese and $3.00 a slice for high quality pizza, not a bad deal.
On the chain pizza places, my favorites is either Papa John or Pizza Hut.
And finally here in Poughkeepsie area one of the most popular is a joint called "Emiliano" on 111 Main St.which is just 2 blocks from the Poughkeepsie MNRR/Amtrak station. they have specials on Sundays in which a full Large Pie is only $8.00.(toppings extra)
Alot of MNRR crew and staff eat lunch/dinner there.
Just my takes on pizza.:tup:

And when will these trains the M8's go into regular passenger (reveune) service at all? I thought they were supposed to be in service a year ago around late 2009.:eek:

As of this month 89 Fishbowls remain at the TTC. By December 2010, 42 are expected to be retained. Those 42 will all be retired by the end of 2012.
The TTC is considering preserving two 1983 Fishbowls as historical vehicles to compliment their historical rail fleet that is available for charters and special events.
Outlined in this TTC document.
I know in San Diego, fishbowl buses remained in service until about 1996-97 as well that also had LCD signs as well.

A question for checkmate:confused:.
Does this 'favorite tv show' 'list have to be current or all time?
Honestly i don't watch much of the current shows as i watch mostly sports, news shows during prime time in the evenings as i dislike almost all of the reality shows that took over tv. Recently it was '24' "Law & Order' and "Lost' but they are now all cancelled.

What i was thinking of for LIRR/MNRR "Engineers' is a caual wear uniform like the ones the Train Opeartors at Path now wear or even in San Diego on their city's "MTS Trolley" aka Light rail.
What you guys think?

Guys i have a general LIRR/MNRR question? Why does their Motorman/Train Engineers do not wear uniforms? (NYCT) (subway)Train Opeartors are required to wear ones so i wonder why can't LIRR/Metro North T/O's?
I actually seen on a few occasion usually late nights on weekends, those Engineers only wear a crappy torn t-shirt and shorts. I am not asking them to wear a 'suit and tie' but man they should IMO be in uniform just like the Conductors on (MTA)railroads?
What you guys think of a basic uniform for MNRR/LIRR Engineers?:eek::confused:

Better that the M-8's 'minor' problems be found now in testing than what happened in the mid/late 1970's w/ (NYCT)subways and then 'new' R44/46's fleet of cars.
