Ok, so maybe those aren't on the , so maybe those are signed an , so maybe I was in Grand Central today, so maybe I stopped by the Transit Museum today. Those models look great!

metsfan Posted August 12, 2008 Share #9 Posted August 12, 2008 Nice catch. I think its interesting that they have returned to the corrugated roof panel. Must be good for aerodynamics. - Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were the R160 were taken off the A line?:confused: They don't work properly in the rockaways because of the power systems out there being funky. As soon as they fix that they will move onto the , but i don't see them on there till after much of the older cars especially the R32 are retired. - Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R1Toasty Posted August 13, 2008 Share #13 Posted August 13, 2008 I saw that model a little while back in the GCT transit "museum." I went a little out of my way to check it out. I just have to wish it actually worked and they had it running around a track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do NTT's know which station is which? I'm assuming some sort of signal sent through the running rails? Or small transponders between the rails?

Joe Posted August 14, 2008 Share #21 Posted August 14, 2008 That explains why the display in the cab has the number of feet till the next station displayed. I don't understand how the computer just fails to work out in Rockaway then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
