trainfan22 Posted March 18, 2008 Share #26 Posted March 18, 2008 Tell me about it...the damn always does that in BKLYN... And the line in brooklyn always does that too. Funny thing is that when the first train comes it aways be packed then a another train comes right behind it with nobody on it. Same goes for the line if a train is late a another one will come right it with empty seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East New York Posted March 18, 2008 Share #27 Posted March 18, 2008 Tell me about it...the damn always does that in BKLYN... I've got screwed on the plenty times with that skip-stop crap! And one time I was at W. 4th and the skipped us twice in a row. I was mad as hell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze Posted March 18, 2008 Share #28 Posted March 18, 2008 Yes they do that skip-stop thing quite often when trains are running late and packed. I've had that several times on the last year. The train then is usually blowing its horn upon entering the station so riders know it will not stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOB2RTO Posted March 19, 2008 Share #29 Posted March 19, 2008 I love it when the train does that, cause i usually get off at the important stops when it does that. Gives me an express ride up WPR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brighton Local Posted March 19, 2008 Share #30 Posted March 19, 2008 Can they do that? Can they do that ON PURPOSE? because of the neighborhood the station is in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOB2RTO Posted March 19, 2008 Share #31 Posted March 19, 2008 Can they do that ON PURPOSE? because of the neighborhood the station is in? Might seem like that, but it's just schedule. They do that here. We get "put up NEXT BUS PLEASE", and drop off only, or continue in active service, but come back to me dark, or take everyone off this bus, and put them in the other, then go dark (sometimes the back way) to the end and start, or take everyone off this bus, put them in the next, and turn around here (when really late). I have got "come back dark to 246st" from Riverdale while working the Bx7, and Bx10. So everyone gets a taste of the MTA at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brighton Local Posted March 19, 2008 Share #32 Posted March 19, 2008 Ahh ok. Yeah, Im familiar with Battery Runs.. As stated earlier, I used to catch an "Express", along the Culver... I just wanted to verify that trains could just bypass stations because of its location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they did, their a$$es would be sued from here to infinity........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fordhamkid7721 Posted March 23, 2008 Share #35 Posted March 23, 2008 Personally I think the and lines in Brooklyn and Queens after dark are dangerous.The livonia stations too cause theres nobody on the platform.I live by the line i ride all the time after dark even at 3am I feel pretty safe.No subway line is safe but some are more safe than others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EASF Posted March 27, 2008 Share #36 Posted March 27, 2008 hey all, yeah i agree. mostly at any time, day or night theres people in the (4)and train. i used to take the (D)train late at night coming from a club or a movie :cool: and theres was people always, and never got in trouble or saw any while i was in there. but it depends too, because there are stations that are really empty at night they look like a desert, you have to be extra careful in those station, and the ones that are in bad known areas/hood.
