For whenever Awesome Ninja gets unbanned...
He won't; he was banned as Chargerdodge9 and Jgood6195 before lol.
Also, could I have a Q38 route that scrolls (destination info scrolling only) reading:
"REGO PARK
108 ST 62 DR"
then
"via ELIOT AV
via PENELOPE AV"?
An example of the scrolling for the destination info (make it a bit slower than what is shown please):

Proposals have very interesting outcomes.

One way I see to solve this problem would be to turn some trains at 57 St. The countless trains I see passing 14 St that are going to Astoria is very frustrating, as the platform gets even more and more full. Maybe even bring back the to 57 St, but have it run Local in Brooklyn. I hope that the CBTC gets installed on the soon, there are literally thousands of trains on the one behind another, and the service flows so smoothly. But bottom line, the needs to make some more short turns, or get more service during rush hour.
A < > running local in Brooklyn is the same thing as additional s to 57th st lol.
As for CBTC, that actually doesn't sound like a bad idea at all.

Why would R62A's be used for work trains they are not that old yet. I can see maybe something like the R46's being used since they are almost 40 years old.
But the R46s:
* Don't fit on the A-division
* May not be able to fit on the A-division curvatures (51'-64' max)
* Are a vital part of the B-division fleet (barely any surpluses), unlike the R62As, which will probably be in surplus after the R188s come in.
* Are unnecessary additions since there are 10 R32 work cars anyway.

So 4P3607 and I found many scrap RTS-06s at SIMS Metal, the same place where NYC Subway cars are going...

Are cars 4460 4665 scrapped? I think they are. I deleted the fact that they were at AVE X yard twice on wikipedia and they put it back saying that I didn't have a good source.
As of now, nope. But given this giant cleaning, they could be.

1137, 1396, 1414, 1462, 1480, 1483, 1497, and 1583-1586 are all at the Meadowlands scrap. Pictures will not come until late 2013-early 2014 because I desire to complete a backlog.

First off he has no interest in the opposite sex AT ALL. Second it is apparent he may be suffering from a mental disorder made apparent from his disruptive and delusional patterns of thoughts reflected in his posts, as well as his erratic behavior, that is disrupting two transit forums at once. He cannot even think constructively. Third he is obsessed with you.
I'm not even trying to be funny.
Someone needs to bring this to his attention. He needs to see a psychiatrist. Or if he is being treated already, his medications will have to be adjusted and psychotherapy will need to be modified. I can clearly see it. It's a mental illness, its apparent from what we are seeing here apparent by his grandiose ideas and again his strange way of thinking.
Well wonderful?
But if he has a disease, that would be very convincing (who found out he had autism or Asperger's doe).
3.) Lack of social intelligence? Difficulty in the ability to make successful friendships, which may lead to his obsession with people.
So THAT'S why he keeps copying phrases from me...

If my information is correct and the southern R is using Jamaica-based cars, then I would say an R68/68A is very unlikely - an R46 would be far more likely.
The south should be using CIY-based cars; it would be a pain to send R46s down to the south and back to Jamaica everyday.

There are definitely more than 33 cars on TA property. 33 is pure speculation. At minimum there are at least 44 on property overall but no one can seem to get an exact number unless you are a ranking official in new car equipment deliveries department.
It's 44 new cars for now, with 22 as new sets (7811-7832) and 22 as converted sets/new C-cars (7211-7230/7899-7900).

If you really wanna extend the life of the R32's by putting them on an outdoor route, let them be on the Rockaway and Franklin shuttles. I can't think of a regular route that is predominantly outdoors.
Well, the does run underground for a long way.

Does anyone know what MTA-Bus D60 1026 was? It is surely one of the LED units for sure (sorry if I disregarded anyone's report on 1026 already).

And an NYPD Orion V Suburban numbered 9831 was at CS for a bit.
Damn, you may have found ex-5894 or 5895 then! Do you know when and where they stop by?

BUS - Random Thoughts Thread
in New York City Bus
Posted
A really random thought, but I remember seeing an Orion 7 3G (708x) heading back to NYC through the GWB as I was departing NYC after a trip with some friends. Interesting how even the Orion 7 3Gs are now making trips to the Daimler service centers now...
