TwoTimer Posted July 5, 2011 Share #4 Posted July 5, 2011 No, they were fireworks specials - gap trains. One was pulled up to 207 to make an interval cause apples got stuck in midtown, the other did its normal gap service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRT Bronx Express Posted July 10, 2011 Share #10 Posted July 10, 2011 R32 = serious business. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VIP Posted July 10, 2011 Share #11 Posted July 10, 2011 am I the only one who thinks R32's should be placed on the for Rush hr service again :confused: they are good handling crowds and passenger flow. The R46 during rush hour does me and many others no justice :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoTimer Posted July 11, 2011 Share #12 Posted July 11, 2011 Its hard not to fit into a R32. On the 46s there are so many "dead" spots where there's room but one can't stand without inciting some argument. (now to let the cat out the bag) I actually operated that R32 set that day in the pics, for once I got a train that can move (unlike most of the sets I get when I work the ).

VIP Posted July 13, 2011 Share #17 Posted July 13, 2011 the rollsigns cant be that much of an issue, the C/R can make manual announcements after Euclid av. its just a matter of Lefferts or Far Rock. remember when Jamaica had R32's they were primarily on the and many times the North terminal Read "Jamaica Center" when special rush hrs it went to Jamaica 179 . or the issue of filling gaps in service. you had the train with five cars signed up as . same thing with the (E)/(F) either of those trains had wrong signage at times. so the shouldnt be a major issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
