This is a somewhat big request, you don't have to do all of them, but if you could, that would be super awesome!

 

Could I have:

 

R62A (with Green Circle LED)

 

(1) - Woodlawn, Jerome Avenue - Cypress Hills, Crescent Street

 

R142A Exterior

 

(1) To Bedford Pk

(1) Eastern Pkwy Lcl

(1) 7 Av Exp

(1) Bronx Lcl

 

R142A Interior

 

(1) To Broadway Junction

(1) The Next Stop Is

(1) Saratoga-Rockaway

(1) 12:34 PM

 

Overhead Sign

 

Left: Manhattan and Brooklyn via Express

Middle 1: (1) 7 Av Express to Cypress Hills - Crescent Street. AM Rush hours express in Bronx.

Middle 2: (4) Lexington Av Express to Crown Heights - Utica Av

Right: Late nights (4) via Local

 

I'd also like an R142A strip map, but instead of sending you all the stops, should I just PM them to you?

 

Thanks!

Accepted, but split:

 

I will do the strip map (you can PM or put it here I don't mind) and the interior signs.

 

Exteior signs will be done by Subway.

Also, you can request R110A/B strip maps as well. For the R179 signs, they make look different here and then cause I'm still perfecting the sign. If you take a look at the exterior R179, you can see it DOSENT have any LED dots yet. I'm adding those in right now.

 

For your R62A sign, I will try and see if I still have the template for that.

Alright, so since im a Graphic Designer, I thought I could bring my talent here. So, the only requestable sign at the Moment is R188 Signs , R160 Signs, and R142 signs. Please note: The font for the R188 , R142 and R160 signs is not mine, so the credit goes to the author! 

 

Signs you can request:

 

R188:

Hi Javier,

 

Thanks for posting this topic. I'm new to the forum, and currently being considered for a Train Operator position. I'm also in the design field, and appreciate your work. Since I haven't started school car training, I'm not familiar with these signs. How are they used? Where are they used? Thanks in advance, and keep up the great work.

Yep

Cool! Could you make this sign?

and an exit sign (black letters on white) reading:

[down arrow] Exit 12 St & Spring Garden St [wheelchair symbol]

                           Buttonwood St and Ridge Av

                            Uptown [bRS]

(The "BRS" is white letters on an orange rectangle. Its the SEPTA version of the MTA's route bullets)

Well sorry if we don't work on your schedule. We have lives outside of this you know. If things don't get done when you want them, be patient, or request it elsewhere. Just saying

Oh I know that. I was just saying, that's all.

I'm new to this topic, so these may sound like some odd questions. How are these signs used? What are they used for? Where? Thanks in advance.

 

Exterior signs on New York City subway cars are used to show the northern and southern/eastern and western destinations, and on NT trains, they also show via what street or area of the city they go through. Interior displays, only found on NT trains, show the destination of the train, the next stop, and the time. Strip maps and FIND systems only found on NT trains list all the stops along the line. Overhead platform signs show the direction of where the trains at that platform go, and what trains stop there. Station signs show the station name and the trains that stop there.

Thanks Tonyboy515 for the quick reply. So MTA doesn't offer these signs, or have a dedicated department to make them? It's on us to make our own? Is that right? What's a NT train?

No, this forum thread is for simply replicas of these signs. You can even request fictional route signs. The (MTA) places the platform signs at every side of a platform with tracks. The NTT subway cars come build in with LED displays and older cars come with side rollsigns to show destinations.
