what happened to 5949?

 

I really don't know, the tow / maintnence truck was there and it seemed like the B/O and someone else were inspecting the farebox. Whatever it is I don't think that bus is going to see service again :( .

 

Cool pics and vids!

 

Thanks!

Always wondered why some (C) trains don't run out to Lefferts, and some (A) trains go on the Lefferts Express track during rush hour. Great pictures.

 

There is really no point in sending the A via the middle track since it is not continuous. Besides it is only about 10 minutes to go from Euclid to Lefferts.
