Hmm...wonder what caused that. Looked from the video like the train had dumped and wouldn't charge back up again, and he was investigating the trip cocks to see if he'd hit any debris. Brake pipe rupture?

If it did not charge, it could have been a pulled cord. Once you check for that then see what control says.

 

Also, trains could not have used the express tracks to bypass the stalled train since the only cross over back to the local from the express tracks is at 4th Ave and it is OOS. Plus they have flags and trips on both express tracks just south of Ditmas. The only other thing to do would be send a few trains over the (D) to West 4th.

True. Impossible to tell though since you can't see how long the train was stalled or if he'd already walked thru the train. Hope that wasn't DD's train...

Not his M/M going to thr roadbed. He was the stuck train Sunday at 34 and 6. They had a flood condition and had to reverse back into the station.
