Interesting… which tracks got knocked out that crippled both and service this way? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted: 08/02/2023 08:26 PM Crazy how these two were simultaneously happening, I wasn't aware of the incident involving the 7 Av line at the time, but they are presumed dead from what I hear. I was definitely aware of the incident, saw videos and photos of the dude that was on the tracks wanting to unalive themselves. A lot of people were trying to talk to the dude persuading him not to do it. I'm not sure what the aftermath was, but there is a photo of the dude back on the platform looking like Emergency Response crews sedated him or something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BM5 via Woodhaven Posted August 10, 2023 Share #7911 Posted August 10, 2023 So does this mean that trains basically go back into Manhattan out of service? Part Suspended No train service between Queensboro Plaza and Astoria-Ditmars Blvd in both directions while we address a signal problem at Astoria-Ditmars Blvd. Consider nearby trains for alternate service between Manhattan and Queens. Consider Q69, Q100, or Q101 buses between Queensboro Plaza and Astoria Blvd. Planned work reminders: runs between Whitehall St-South Ferry and 57 St-7 Av then via line to 96 St. Manhattan-bound platform at Queensboro Plaza is closed. Posted: 08/10/2023 09:54 AM Also: Trains Rerouted Jamaica Center-Parsons/Archer-bound and Forest Hills-71 Av-bound trains are delayed while we address a signal problem at Court Sq-23 St. Some Forest Hills-bound trains are running on the line from 47-50 Sts-Rockefeller Ctr to 36 St. You may wait longer for a northbound (F) train as they share tracks with these rerouted trains.

Some s will probably also turn around at Times Sq-42 St to prevent a long line of backed up trains in the tunnel 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkstar8983 Posted August 16, 2023 Share #7914 Posted August 16, 2023 (edited) Wonderful! Clap for yourself MTA and car maintenance! Another R46 has bit the dust. No between Times Sq-42 St and Astoria-Ditmars Blvd since a Manhattan-bound train (obviously an R46) lost power on the curve approaching Queensboro Plaza. People trapped on the train since 3PM and still have not been moved off the train, no A/C, in this weather. Reminiscent of the R46 train that lost power a few summers ago around Broadway-Lafayette St. These cars have GOT to go ASAP.

I was on an train that crashed into an tree branch on the Sea Beach and got disabled and they sent a rescue train right behind it and we had to walk though the cabs (Both trains was R160s) to get to the rescue train. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's relatively simple with cars generally built to the IND standard, but for 75-footers, that's an entirely different story, doubly so on curves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminiscent of the R46 train that lost power a few summers ago around Broadway-Lafayette St. These cars have GOT to go ASAP. There’s obviously something missing in this situation. I’m no expert on R46 equipment but when you say that a train lost power where I come from that means traction power. I can’t see how that affects the AC in the car(s) on the train. I’ve been involved with other than head end operations maybe 5 times in 30 years but I have never heard of a whole consist losing power. That calls for second car operation. I’ve done it with experienced Motor Instructors without any problems. That’s why I don’t like the NTT equipment compared to the SMEE stuff. When I was a Conductor in school car we were taught how to read the signals and the iron so technically we could move the train without supervision on the scene. Be aware that any type of equipment can die at any time. The R46 is old and is being replaced but there’s no guarantee that the new equipment will be far superior than the old model. Just my thoughts. YMMV. Carry on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They couldn’t because the issue happened on essentially a 90 degree curve, so maybe the the train cars couldn’t line up well, especially with 75 foot train cars. Wait until someone ends up dying from medical complications during these incidents. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loss of third rail power in that location. I was reminded of the frequent radio announcements from the Command Center about power outages around the Gold Street/ DeKalb area and how we IRT folks from Brooklyn would give folks alternate directions to reach their BMT south destinations. Nevins, Atlantic, Bergen, Grand Army Plaza were all good for bus service and Franklin had bus service and the Shuttle. Sorry for overlooking the obvious last night. My apologies.

Lawrence St Posted August 17, 2023 Share #7925 Posted August 17, 2023 This is exactly why dogs aren’t allowed in the subway unless in a traveling container. There is no service in Manhattan in both directions while NYPD responds to a dog on the tracks near Grand Central-42 St. trains are running on the line between 149 St-Grand Concourse and Nevins St in both directions. There is extremely limited service between 86 St and 125 St. The last stop on northbound trains will be Atlantic Av-Barclays Ctr or Bowling Green. Avoid and trains. As an alternative, consider using nearby 123 NQRW trains or M101, M102, M103, and M15 buses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
