MassTransitHonchkrow Posted July 17, 2016 Share #12927 Posted July 17, 2016 First things first: The is scheduled to run 4 or 5 R46s a day in addition to R160s. Also, because of how Jamaica stores trains on weekends, operators take the first train available which can lead to some unintentional F and R train swaps. This has nothing to with how many cars are getting repaired. Second, the delay in the capital program(which was approved in late May) did not delay the R211 order. It was always scheduled for award in 2016-17. Third, there is no R193. (At least not a revenue car. There may be a work train with that number) The one thing you are on the money about is the open windows. Sent from my iPod touch using NYC Transit Forums mobile app I know that. Those two cars don't exist yet. They were one of the new sets that were supposed to employ gangway doors in at least one set. Sent from my m8 using Tapatalk I know that.

Sent from my iPod touch using NYC Transit Forums mobile app Gosh. If I make a mistake and admit it, I still seem to get grilled for being inaccurate. I feel it's better to be transparent than to continue grinding against veteran users. I iterated that to agree that my info was inaccurate. If I make a mistake and acknowledge it, please don't rub it in. I know I made them. Sent from my m8 using Tapatalk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itmaybeokay Posted July 18, 2016 Share #12932 Posted July 18, 2016 So I was at Times Square-42 Street last night and I saw this (actually I heard it first) attached to the ceiling. It was making a whirring sound. Would I be correct to assume it is a countdown clock? this is a countdown clock but based on a different technology This is not based on track circuit data (like the A division clocks), nor is it based on the technology used at Coney Island. Totally different technology that I can't go in to much detail about. Not sure when they'll go online. Here's a picture from last month of one before they wrapped it up. A while back they tested countdown clocks on the BMT broadway line that worked by using cameras to record car numbers and correlate that information to route and location data - the result being countdown clocks that required no modification to the car equipment. That very well may be the technology they're using here. I have no idea if there's been any movement on this front, but I had also proposed they could use anonymized data of cell phones connecting in every station down the line to fairly accurately locate individual trains (and gain some valuable ridership data too) but that's speculation on top of speculation. I feel like we'd have heard about that if that's what they were using, since technologically, it would be a very big deal. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
