But, was arrested at the location. Glad that the crew and passengers are okay from this chaos. Of all places, Prospect Park Station on the and . Since this idiot didn’t wanna wait for the next train, and she was on schedule to leave PP, then she’s gotta do what she’s gotta do. She gets threatened with a pistol, she’s got no other choice but to delay service and call the police. That’s the whole agenda of keeping passengers safe. Remember: it takes a**hole to f**k things up for everybody. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they really do wanna fight me, they gonna run. But here, because the train is about to leave, what makes you think you can point the gun at the train conductor? Like wtf? You forget, there's always another train you can f**king wait for? This damn system runs 24/7/365. Like chill and wait f**king 3 MINUTES!!! Both the B and Q are going the same way in bklyn.

BM5 via Woodhaven Posted December 30, 2023 Share #30380 Posted December 30, 2023 (edited) The holiday train got taken out of service at Rockefeller Center due to some mechanical issue not too long ago. Also the R7A led the set going uptown too. Unknown if the issue will be fixed to make some final trips, but if not then that's a wrap for the Holiday train lol. It is what it is.

They always ride the front of the train. I'm surprised the hasn't done anything about it yet. I hope the union has brought this to their attention because these batteries on these e-bikes (most not all) are illegal and not approved because their modified.

I kicked someone off my train back in September for doing that with a full sized E-scooter. He blocked the door from my alternate conductors position into the car. ”it’s electric… I’m allowed to…” he protested as the cops came over ”you’re not allowed to block my cab doors with it and I already asked you to move it and you didn’t. Don’t care what size it is or what it runs on.

I don't want to get into arguments, I'm asking you nicely. Rule number 2: Do not interfere with the operations of service when you are bringing a small vehicle on the subway. That will cost you an ejection from the system. Operators need a certain spot clear for an escape route, as you guys mentioned, for emergency cases. No wonder why trains get delayed. Because some dumb nut decided to pick an irrelevant argument with either the motorman or the conductor of the train, then people need LTW forgiveness papers all the time. I’ve experienced that myself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RestrictOnTheHanger Posted January 5 Share #30398 Posted January 5 Noticed while looking out the front of a Queens bound that there are some "T" signals (not signs) at the entrance of 34, 42, and 49 st stations. If I remember correctly, these signals are a white LED T below a green, and the T lights up if any of the mid station signals are red. Is this to encourage entering on station timers and were these installed anywhere else in the system? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustTheSIR Posted January 5 Share #30399 Posted January 5 Well, with the recent 7th Avenue derailment I’ve seen some talking about replacing the IRT signals with CBTC. Opinions? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opinions? Pretty sure there were already plans on replacing signals at Lexington Avenue with CPTC sometime in the future in line with R262 deliveries (which I don't think even came out of the planning stages). Lexington Avenue CBTC was pushed back in favor of replacing IND signals with CBTC first. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
