SubwayGuy Posted July 14, 2009 Share #26 Posted July 14, 2009 Ding ding ding! Just stay off the tracks. The only thing that belongs in that 4' 8.5" space is a big rolling thing called a train. :eek: you forgot to leave room for the side excess of the car! Showing off that "standard gauge knowledge" eh? Uh oh control this is the T/O and it appears this train has run aground on the station platform... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it is new, I thought that it would be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it is new, I thought that it would be safe. Yeah you would think so. Going to be interesting to see what happens when someone winds up on the roadbed who shouldn't be...but then with no tail tracks the trains are going so slowly entering the station maybe it IS safe after all... point on, point off point on, point off when track/3rd rail maintenance is needed someday going to be interesting to see how they do it...single pocket operation overnights? That's my guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my guess... Yep, single track because the dwell time would mean that it would take the gang all night. Also garbage removal will be a pain in the ass or it will be done so fast that nothing will get picked up because the crews don't have room to clear up and want to be off the track. There are several stations around the system that have candy canes running the whole station such as 14th street and 59th street/ 4th ave . Any work on or about the road bed requires full flagging protection because there is no room to clear up. But hay its only the MTA. Remember why Jeff thinks Capitol Projects Managment should have brown hard hats Drew? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTR Admiralty Posted July 15, 2009 Share #40 Posted July 15, 2009 The only scenarios where the PSDs will work here: -If the system is built anew from scratch -If the system is run under ATO -If there is the money for it -If the system isn't run by the MTA AFAIK, these things aren't happening. Don't expect PSDs any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
