itmaybeokay Posted January 30, 2014 Share #5402 Posted January 30, 2014 Offering a passenger advice during a diversion when the PA doesn't work automatically makes you the conductor for the car. I fell for that today. Yep - this is the #1 reason when, if I'm listening on a scanner and I hear something pertinent I just keep my damn mouth shut. People love to assume that knowledge about a situation comes somehow with authority to change the situation. (I'll also never forget the time when I was 13, I was waiting for a very late Amtrak train from DC to NYC and listening for any info on the scanner, which I was very into at the time. A passenger asked me, in all seriousness, if the "delay" button on the scanner would delay the train. She did not believe me when I explained that it does not and cannot) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abba Posted January 30, 2014 Share #5403 Posted January 30, 2014 It looks like the MTA has to do a quick FAST-TRACK on the northbound at 72nd.st.And the southbound at church Ave as well.Too many delays in those locations lately. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine service will improve dramatically if they can take care of this interlocking point. As stated by others, MAJOR reason why service on the 6th Ave Local/Queens Bvld Exp to 179th is so fffffff'ed up....

RollOver Posted January 30, 2014 Share #5405 Posted January 30, 2014 And the southbound at church Ave as well. The and those occasional trains also have that problem between Franklin and Utica southbound. The relay east of Utica cannot handle that many frequent express trains on the IRT Eastern Parkway Line in Brooklyn. The lone good thing is that, during the off-peak, the is slightly less frequent, so the delays between Franklin and Utica southbound are less common during the said time period. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
