Bushwick Bill Posted February 13, 2008 Share #1 Posted February 13, 2008 I noticed on the Culver the OPTO S signs under the 6 car indicator which I'm guessing are for the route. Can someone tell what it means? Bill (NYCT) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R1Toasty Posted February 13, 2008 Share #2 Posted February 13, 2008 One Person Train Operation, Dunno about the S, Shuttle maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted February 13, 2008 Share #3 Posted February 13, 2008 I thought the "S" was for Special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken S. Posted February 13, 2008 Share #4 Posted February 13, 2008 I think that told the T/O where to stop back when the was six cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INDman Posted February 13, 2008 Share #5 Posted February 13, 2008 I think the "S" is for Stop, just like in some stations there are no 4, 6, 8, and 10 signs only an "S". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTAGuy Posted February 13, 2008 Share #6 Posted February 13, 2008 the OPTO S sign means stop here only when the train is being operated by the train operator only (no conductor) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastman346 Posted February 13, 2008 Share #7 Posted February 13, 2008 I can't say I ever seen a one person train before. does the MTA still run one person trains if so when/where? if not when did the MTA stop running them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
error46146 Posted February 13, 2008 Share #8 Posted February 13, 2008 its the place where the OPTO trains stop. and yes they are for the G, which only has one guy in the front and he serves as both the train operator and the Conductor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The (G)eorge is only OPTO on the Weekends... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTOMan Posted February 14, 2008 Share #11 Posted February 14, 2008 the OPTO S sign means stop here only when the train is being operated by the train operator only (no conductor) Negative that "S" means ALL car classes which run on that particular line stop there it has nothing to do with the train is OPTO or not. Remember the (F)ox has been rerouted on the (G)eorge Line from time to time. Hope that clears it up for you.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that clears it up for you.:cool: i stand corrected, i thought it meant an "only OPTO" stop. yes i forget S does mean all car classes stop otherwise the sign would just say OPTO, or 6, 8, 10, etc. thanks for clearing it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
