B3 Via Av U Posted August 9, 2012 Share #1 Posted August 9, 2012 Hi guys! I just want to ask some of the train operators about the light gray boxes springing up between the local and express tracks at Neck Road Station on the . OT, but can someone explain the red and black needles on the brake pressure guage? Sorry if I spelled wrong. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broadway Local Posted August 9, 2012 Share #2 Posted August 9, 2012 On your first question, are you talking about this? (Photo taken by me, before my camera broke) If this, then I think it's a 3rd-rail power box or some other equipment. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The second question I have no idea, so someone else should answer it for you.

Dan05979 Posted August 9, 2012 Share #3 Posted August 9, 2012 That might be for the 3rd rail heaters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B3 Via Av U Posted August 9, 2012 Author Share #4 Posted August 9, 2012 Yep, it's similar to that but higher. I had a theory that CBTC was being installed on Brighton because ther was a little antenna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan05979 Posted August 9, 2012 Share #5 Posted August 9, 2012 Those boxes might be for the radio's Those might be repeaters. I see those boxes going to Far Rockaway. Nvr mind the 3rd rail heater thing. Since radio reception is so bad in that area, they might be putting those up for the new system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
