yes, so I think that when ENY gets the R179 4 car sets, either the R42's or the R179 should go to the . The Needs new cars of 10 cars. I have witnessed many times the getting so crowded. The R44's on the were a great help.
If the stays 8 cars, I really hope the would put the R179 on the & give some R32 to ENY to put on the .

Thanks Button is missing. Anyways thanks IRT!
this has been happening to me as well. I requested on the other thread but no one is replying (the "subway sign signatures" one).

That is possible, and could be operated in within three hours. The only problem is the free track on the Hell Gate Bridge is just one alone. Every other one is used by railroads. So your would be bi directional on the Bridge.
Yes, so Im thinking of just putting a tunnel there (I cant edit the post (?)).

okay heres another subway route that has stops that are not too close together & has an express service as well. Runs from 32 Avenue-Clearveiw Expressway, Queens - to - Washington Heights-168 Street, Manhattan.

Its only 46 stops, (I think) how many the has. There is a spur track that connects to the and goes to 207 Street yard where the line gets its trains from. There is another spur track that runs connecting up the @ 168 Street. Im someday planning to make a BVE route out of my fictional routes.

The (S6) Avenue was only a temporarily service to serve the Sixth Avenue Line when the 63rd Street Connector was under construction. There is no need for a (S6) Avenue. Plus the gray is a real proposal which everyone believes should be implemented. It's to skip stop with the . The , and the has a similar service, and it works.
I know. btw there is an (S6) bullet so there is no need to post -6 Avenue.:tup:

That is a good idea. If you looked at my posts on the last page you would find out that a gray was proposed to skip stop along with the . If this happens the , and the can be extended up Tenth Avenue to better serve the West Side, and be extended along the Bay Ridge Branch to create a much needed crosstown Brooklyn line on designated subway tracks on a line capable of carrying 6 tracks with only 2 surviving tracks today.
We Need a Grey K Bullet! Mods?... I requested the (S6) and like it alot.:tup:

Still too long. Train crews would spend 5 hours operating this train line. The still won't go for it.
Im thinking of another one, but this time starting in Queens, Thru Manhattan, Then Bronx.

Just don't do it. Make a good project, and make it super cheap. Also an crew would find your route a nightmare. They might have to do a 6 hour work shift. They won't really get paid much for it.
oh god you are right; I will redo this but this time have a shuttle going across the bronx and back and then the (12) starting at Harlem Water Drive Thingy (kind of forgot first stop in manhattan name). That will cut out alot of stations.:tup:

actually running a B division line with an A division line is possible but very costly. You would have to shave back the platforms, then put automatic platform extenders all along the platforms and have the extenders know which train is the one that needs it or not.
(S6)ee what I mean...
0 -
The IRT Lines and the BMT/IND Lines can't run together not even in a fantasy world.
I dont see that in any of the fictional routes unless you are just making that statement. True, unless there are platform extenders along the whole entire platform or build platforms off to the the side if elevated.

Yeah, 73 stops for a local train...thats gonna be worse than the !
actually 72 stops, I made a mistake, and lol that is worse than the . but there is an express <12> that makes only 21 stops.

IRT: Do you still make the R160 Signs?
I have a request but I want to ask first so I dont sound demanding or rude (I hate when people are like that).
0 -
I make R160 exterior signs too. I'll try to work on my interior later on so here it is:
BTW, Do I need to resize it?
I know its not my sign, but it says "403 forbidden", along with a few other ones.

Yea but now its time for the big question
What is the fate of the R62As on the ? When will that be confirmed?
I think a few R62A's are going to stay on the . most of them will go to the (hopefully b/c the LEDs on those cars would be a big help). I thought that R62A train using cars from the was staying there. I guess no R62A's from the are going to the .
Dont know when it will be confirmed. well just have to wait and see what the says.
:tup:R142A's to the :tdown:no more RFW.
1 -
yes! Cant wait for it to happen. I was expecting the R142's & R188's to combine as is being R142A 5 cars - R188 middle car - R142A 5 cars to make an 11 car set.
Now a message to everyone: get your RFW shots of the before theres no more RFW!
so next year at this time. Its going to fly by so quickly...
