mark1447 Posted February 9, 2010 Share #76 Posted February 9, 2010 By putting something out of the window, which is a sure way to get hurt or kicked off the train. No, becuz it was allowed and there was no signal. And no i didnt get kicked out becuz lots were doing it.. Read above! I know my safety! I checked before doing anything..

Joe Posted February 9, 2010 Share #77 Posted February 9, 2010 By putting something out of the window, which is a sure way to get hurt or kicked off the train. Yeah, that's kind of what I was assuming. I was on an R17(i think) and they allowed us to open the window, so i took my camera out and took a shot. R12/15/17 allows the windows to go down compared to the others. I know full well that there are drop-sash windows on those trains. Famous last words: "there's no signal coming for another...SPLAT!" No, becuz it was allowed and there was no signal. And no i didnt get kicked out becuz lots were doing it.. Read above! I know my safety! I checked before doing anything.. If everyone jumped off the Brooklyn Bridge, would that make the act of jumping off the Brooklyn Bridge any less unsafe? By sticking anything out of the window on a moving train, you clearly showed your disregard for safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes i understand your statement on safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INDman Posted February 9, 2010 Share #79 Posted February 9, 2010 Sticking your head, arm, or even camera out side of the train is a stupid idea. Several C/Rs have been killed over the years while observing the platform and they are trained to do it. All it take is for you to miss judge something and your dead. Weather or not you were "allowed" to do that, it's still very stupid. I know for certain that they would not allow people to stick their appendages out the window, just because they let you open the window did not mean it was open season to do something stupid. Next time think twice about what you do and what you post. Safety is not a joke. If someone gets seriously hurt on one of these trips, they will never happen again.

Grand Concourse Posted February 10, 2010 Share #80 Posted February 10, 2010 MOD trip, what some people did there (not pointing finger at you Phil) help to get those trips canned. I still don't understand what was about that trip that got the trips canned. I stayed well behind the bumper and used my 10x zoom lens to get the pic. But I think some people ventured in a bit deep into the tunnel. I stayed as far as the road bed and near the station. NM: read above posts. I guess I must've been away from 'those people' cuz it was 'calm' in my section of the train towards the middle. I gave up trying to wait at the front of the train because of the rf window hogs.

Grand Concourse Posted February 10, 2010 Share #82 Posted February 10, 2010 Feel free to pm me the details. I'd like to know more. I went on like 4-5 MOD trips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigrene18 Posted February 10, 2010 Share #83 Posted February 10, 2010 Can't be, it still has the blue strip and big storm door window. Might be right out of the car appearance shop though. That's because the picture was from 1986, pre-GOH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
