The same way they always are. Everything will be severely delayed. I wouldn't bother going anywhere until after it's done, or take Metro-North or the subway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkmatechamp13 Posted November 5, 2017 Share #21978 Posted November 5, 2017 BTW, did anybody hear about the major traffic jams that happened on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning as a result of the West Street incident? People were talking about 3-4 hour commutes on Wednesday morning. (Of course, my condolences go out to the friends and relatives of those who died, and I'm not saying it wasn't necessary to close down the street) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what dhd means deadhead yes? It does mean Dropback but it means to not depart for the specified amount of time, thus dropping back (or down) a headway. For the most part, MTA Bus and some NYCT hawks use dropbacks as their way of giving operators their meal break on the road, without having them deadhead to/from the depot first. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PATH does something similar. Me and a conductor shared a coffee break and current events on my last photo run in New Jersey.

Crane operations, street fairs... Then basically from late Novrmber until next year they'll be one detour because of the amount of tourists in the West Midtown area. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BM5 via Woodhaven Posted November 12, 2017 Share #21997 Posted November 12, 2017 Recently got a Q52/Q53 SBS paper timetable. The timetable is on glossy paper, similar to that of the Q70 SBS timetable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegoBrickBreaker101 Posted November 12, 2017 Share #21998 Posted November 12, 2017 Lmao to whoever did the Q53 SBS codes, the front side correctly says Woodside - 61st St Sta but the side sign says Elmhurst - Woodhaven Blvd Sta 😂😂😂 I was just on 6080, which was taken OOS because the window behind the driver had the emergency handle pulled and she couldn't get it to close. It was sitting at Myrtle Avenue for a while until the driver took it out of service. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bldg. constructions/renovations/whatever is the #1 reason I tend to walk with hesitancy whenever I walk along one of the side streets.... If not for 'fanning, I have no real use for crosstowns; I refrain from using 'em otherwise.... Crosstowns like the M8, M50, M66 (routes that utilize side streets) are the pits.... I remember some ppl. here actually wanted a 27th/28th st crosstown, I'm like, for what.... Those side streets in the W. 20's are good for having all them dam cranes, and generators (or whatever the hell those monstrosities situated in the street are, taking up like 10% of one side of the block) & shit..... 1 hour ago, LegoBrickBreaker101 said: Lmao to whoever did the Q53 SBS codes, the front side correctly says Woodside - 61st St Sta but the side sign says Elmhurst - Woodhaven Blvd Sta 😂😂😂 Damn, I know the MTA wants to paint the picture that SBS' is the fastest mode of surface transit possible, but this is just too much 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just push the window out and as far up as you can go and let it slam 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
