Mysterious2train Posted May 4, 2011 Share #80 Posted May 4, 2011 You know you're addicted to the subway when you keep track of one specific trainset, and get upset if two five-car sets are split up. By the way, I saw 7001-7005 and 7006-7010 lately. Yesterday I saw 7001-7005 coupled to 6985-6981 with 7001 leading North and today 7006-7010 coupled to 7040-7036. Someday, R142s 7001-7005 and 7006-7010, or rather, 7001-7010, will become whole again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1447 Posted May 4, 2011 Share #81 Posted May 4, 2011 Your addicted when........ -An idiot rates a Youtube video thumb down of someones train or bus video on purpose -When you see a roll sign of a route that is not assigned that car class. (ex: R42 train sign on a ) -When you have multiple Youtube accounts with subway videos (Rather then one) -When you are on a nostalgia event and being the first idiot to be in the RFW, instead of being nice and letting children LOOK instead -When you argue on a forum over which car class is better -When you PULL the emergency brake on a subway car on purpose, like the 2009 NOSTALGIA... -When you just fan SUBWAYS ALL THE TIME, or JUST NYC Subway and not doing some other transit system or Railroad fanning lol, but then again that can count as addiction -When you see a new tech car coming in, LOVE IT A LOT then bash it a few years after because its replacing the old cars and then years later you go back to loving a new car and bashing.. A CYCLE. Just like the R160.. Everyone loved the R160 and now people are bashing it LOL. I know a few who are just like this and may do this when the R179/R188+ comes in.

Your second point doesn't make no sense, so a average joe who's not a railfan takes the subway home after a long day of work and sees a A 42 on the signed up as a is addicted to the subway?

You know you're addicted to the NYC Subway when you have certain keys that only T/A Personnel should have. You know you're addicted to the NYC Subway when you hear a train accelerate out of a station and you are saying "I am done." or "That train is finished."
