Really sorry about the Animated LCD/LED signs thread. I know I'm terrible at keeping my word. This Sunday I'll do any requests waiting on that page, and every Sunday from there I'll try to get requests done. Now that the school year is nearing it's end, I'll have some more time to go on the computer and finish requests. Thanks for requesting!

From what I hear an R68 did run on the today and a few R32s. Look for it tomorrow. Only comes out PM rush.
-
I was told an R68/A might pop up on the during the PM Rush. Not sure how true it is. Don't take my word for it (meaning don't waste your time by standing at one of the platforms for 3 hours). If it's true it will be there all pick.

It's 6:15 PM and I decide to close my eyes for a few minutes. Next thing I know it's 8:30 PM.

An LFS in Manhattan... How the hell did it get there.
-
9849 made it's last run today on the Q25. It's hard to imagine that I'll never ride one of those again. (Now that's if it doesn't somehow come out Monday...)
-
Yet no one believed me when I said that "this is probably not the last run for this bus" on last Friday's fantrip. Now watch it run the Q53 tomorrow. Tomorrow is actually the last day since that's when the tanks expire.

I've heard the say that. Speaking of the , today I witnessed a sick customer at TSQ on the . A then appears on the downtown local track, of which I take to Penn Station and switch back to the express track. Behind that , a shows up with a on the local track. Pretty interesting sight.

MTA Bus Operations: Deliveries, Moves & Transfers

Nope. 9849 can still go out in the morning if they really need a bus (which they do since they are always short about 3 buses). It retires May 31. -
Wow! Just saw this set yesterday. Of course something told me to snap a photo and I didn't listen. I guess that means one of the converted sets will see service soon. Also any word on 7888-7898?
-
Experienced two BIEs yesterday, one on the TOMC and one on a NB
before Grand Ave. It seems the controller slipped out of the T/O's hand with the since the train started to move again in 15 seconds. Those brakes on the R160's suck! Took about 15 seconds to stop from 25 MPH. -
I saw that train at West 4 Street and had everyone staring at me when I exclaimed "WTF?!?!!" My only guess is someone broke into the cab and changed the sign...
-
LFSA 1237 has a yellow sign now.
-
Today there were a lot of R46 on the . The derailment set (5742-5743-5745-5744) is still between Queens Plaza and 36 Street. There is also an R46 in Concourse yard (6080). Since the designers work for the company, they are part of the company so technically they did come up with the design. The general company itself may not have come up with it, but people who work for them did and they are the ones who built it.
-
Damn. I was hoping they'd keep that bus in original condition and eventually save it for museum.
-
Do they search you when you get off there?
-
2306-2310 is on the . Probably borrowed since they might be short. I haven't seen any 72xx in service as of late.
-
7881-7885 is in service. Saw it on a this morning. Not sure what it was linked up to. Also 1961-1962-1963-1964-1965 are hooked up in consecutive order on the South end of a train. 1961 has a full cab. They are NOT linked but coupled.
-
Nope. T/O still went pretty fast.
-
Went over the derailment site on a Manhattan bound today (of course it was an R160). The tracks sound strange; it's like there are 6 separate third rail sections at that spot. Also saw the R32 set that was on the . 3405 really does howl loud.
-
LOL. Had a C40 pass me today, those buses are starting to sound better. The older the bus, the better it sounds.
-
All the R160's can support CBTC. They just have to install it. How do you think Queens Blvd CBTC is going to work?
-
Sure, as long as you don't print them out and post them in the subway. Then again, people don't tend to pay attention to the signs anyway ↓↓ "The next Manhattan bound J train will arrive in approxamently 1,911 minutes."
