Jova42R Posted December 22, 2019 Share #22826 Posted December 22, 2019 Hi! Does anyone know if you can transfer to the downtown at Canal St? I know that with some lines, the second-to-last stop is exit-only in the terminal's direction. Thanks! @Jova42R 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same with the R32’s. The smaller font signs were added if the scrolling was tough, stuck, or simply if the signs were really dirty and not legible. The larger font/abbreviation rollsigns are from the 80’s Come to think of it, the larger ones are extremely similar to the R68A originals / R68 1988 replacements. I wonder if it's a similar order. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union Tpke Posted December 23, 2019 Share #22832 Posted December 23, 2019 @Around the Horn When you have heard two random riders (not railfans) on separate occasions make fun of the NTT announcements for Briarwood, you know they are legitimately funny. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted December 23, 2019 Share #22833 Posted December 23, 2019 I find it rather odd that I'd sooner go to Fulton Street as an alternative to Nostrand Avenue than I would head over to Brighton, which is physically closer to me. Then again, there are people who are physically closer to Brighton and opt for Nostrand Avenue... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GojiMet86 Posted December 24, 2019 Share #22843 Posted December 24, 2019 On it now. Leaving Essex right now and heading to Jamaica. It left Broad at 4:45 PM, so it should be at Jamaica at around 5:40-6:00. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calvin Posted December 25, 2019 Share #22847 Posted December 25, 2019 I thought on how 1921-22-5 ended up on the 42nd St Shuttle. It was probably just a display on how the train will look like with the red/green color LED without seats and features (including the wrap all over the train) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All three issues were northbound. The CPW local must’ve been a real shitshow. Whenever the and service goes south in quality they have a tendency to pull all the trains from service. The ripple effect that happens with the rest of the B-division after that isn’t much fun either. It’s always interesting to see something silly like an F via Crosstown because an R needed to go via Bridge/6th Avenue because a B needed to go via Broadway/63rd Street because a D needed to go to 168th via local because a C needed to run to 207 via express because it was late from the incident in Brooklyn and because of an A from the Rockaways that got turned at Euclid. Did I mention that Q train that went via Whitehall and Broadway local because of that B via Broadway and that R via 6th? It might have ended up in Astoria or something which probably made the W stop running also. All this from an incident along Fulton Street in Brooklyn and the Grand Concourse in the Bronx. * These reroutes were all hypothetical by the way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
