TwoTimer Posted December 17, 2011 Share #26 Posted December 17, 2011 Well the gets its riding contingent because of its Queens Blvd section and the area between Essex and Church. The never seems bunched up because they don't run enough of them FOR them to bunch up (lol). Even so, ridership demands is what the amount of train service is built upon, all because there is X% more of one service doesn't mean a service running with it should be beefed up by the same amount. The reason there is more trains is because during the rush hour it serves three (!) south terminals and it runs by itself once it gets into Brooklyn and the handful of ©'s get out of the way at Hoyt.

Art Vandelay Posted December 17, 2011 Share #27 Posted December 17, 2011 IINM there was a signal failure that day on the Brighton. The work train was stuck just like all the trains in front and behind it. If the author of the article was as knowledgeable as they pretend to be, they would know that garbage trains remove garbage stored ON THE STATION PLATFORM, not the right of way.

BrooklynBus Posted December 17, 2011 Author Share #28 Posted December 17, 2011 IINM there was a signal failure that day on the Brighton.

If the author of the article was as knowledgeable as they pretend to be, they would know that garbage trains remove garbage stored ON THE STATION PLATFORM, not the right of way. If the problem was signal failure, then the passengers deserved the right explanation, not that there was a work train in front. If that were the case, apparently the motorman was not even notified of that. Does it really matter if you call it a work train or a garbage train? The fact is that it was picking up bags of trash.

TwoTimer Posted December 17, 2011 Share #29 Posted December 17, 2011 Oh, when there are major issues that is actually TA's fault, they usually don't broadcast their own mistakes! But of course that is the case with every job lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
