User Posted August 12, 2012 Share #2 Posted August 12, 2012 What was the original point of those anyway? For passengers to see what kind of MetroCard other people were using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric B Posted August 12, 2012 Share #3 Posted August 12, 2012 Probably for inspectors to see who was getting on with what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brokecrazy Posted August 12, 2012 Share #4 Posted August 12, 2012 I wrote to them some time ago about trying to buy 1 of these, and now they put it up for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amtrak7 Posted August 12, 2012 Author Share #6 Posted August 12, 2012 Well, its $75 plus the $50 processing fee now. Seems a little expensive. If you buy some other stuff you only pay one processing fee, and if you buy more than $300's worth of stuff you pay no fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noflexdont Posted August 12, 2012 Share #7 Posted August 12, 2012 you guys know why they took them down in the first place. A customer was hit in the head not to long ago due to one falling. The MTA has since pulled them on all buses. They are now taking them and selling them. essentially your buying there liability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But why were they never installed on buses delivered in 2006 and later (starting with the delivery of 6690)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quill Depot Posted August 15, 2012 Share #10 Posted August 15, 2012 What was the original point of those anyway? For passengers to see what kind of MetroCard other people were using? That's what I did when I was bored. I want one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess cuz they realized how worthless they really are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
