BreeddekalbL Posted January 16, 2013 Share #652 Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) According to channel 7, two 12-9's involving a on one track and a on the other at 125.... The fatality happened with the train as far as I can understand the report. Edit: The news is still breaking apparently. Now they're saying the two were fighting each other. another edit apparently he took a s**t and fell between the other thing is the injury was a homless guy Edited January 16, 2013 by BreeddekalbL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowblock Posted January 22, 2013 Share #659 Posted January 22, 2013 I don't see it on the MTA site. Oh gee, so I guess I must be lying then. I must have imagined hearing an announcement over the PA that "due to a switch malfunction at Roosevelt Ave, and trains are running with delays" and then I certainly couldn't have heard "2052 Mikey out of Chambers St" on the radio right after that and put two and two together. Nope, if it wasn't on the mta website it must not be true. But your quote from the mta website just clarifies that all of these imaginary voices I was hearing tonight MIGHT have actually happened, and you just were late to the party...... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abba Posted January 22, 2013 Share #660 Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) Got some emails this morning about switch trouble at Flatbush Ave.Looks like something went wrong with the Fasttrack.(Or maybe it's just being extended a little).

But your quote from the mta website just clarifies that all of these imaginary voices I was hearing tonight MIGHT have actually happened, and you just were late to the party...... Well sorry, so I guess something wasn't right when I was simply pointing out an congruence between your announcement and one updated just one minute ago. For an agency that's trying to convey information to its passengers quickly (and it did just put up onthego.mta.info for Android devices), It would be reasonable that it got the update first. put two and two together. Nope, if it wasn't on the mta website it must not be true.…or the problem got fixed and it was updated at 9:40 pm before your out-of-date information reached this site at 9:41 pm. Maybe you were operating a train and couldn't post immediately? Maybe you should consider taking over the job of the guy that's updating the site. Or I should submit a new app to the Google Play/Apple App Store that scrapes transit updates from NYCTF as well since that seems to be more reliably updated than the official site. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alekr Posted January 23, 2013 Share #671 Posted January 23, 2013 It was a mess on the train today MTA site didn't state anything except for signal problems @ 46th street stating that times square bound trains are running with delays. I waited at the Flushing bound train @ 33rd st and 3 manhattan bound 7 trains went by finally a flushing bound train arrived it was packed I couldn't get in. I waited 15 more minutes finally the train arrived. Later on it turned express for no reason after 74th street. I thought they was doing the midday work on times square bound tracks but I think signal problems caused it to cancel the work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I was on the train so I couldn't give this group an update until I got to the terminal. It isn't my job to update NYCTF on unusual service changes, just something I do as a courtesy from time to time. I have no interest in working on the mta website, been there done that, I'm sticking with RTO....... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
