QM1to6Ave Posted January 2 Share #26 Posted January 2 It's scary to see in that video that at least one of them has an MTA vest and hat, and look old enough that they could pass as real employees But if that McCollum guy was able to get away with breaking into MTA property over and over, I have little faith they can stop a group of determined morons like these 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had 10-counts of criminal mischief for breaking security cameras in the system since November 2022, but the courts obviously didn't stop him from continuing his antics. https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/2-arrests-made-in-connection-to-subway-vandalism/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is going to get ugly starting from up top. You mean the now defunct Ringling Bros. & Barnum & Bailey Circus. 6 years ago, I was on my way to Wilmington, Del and I heard that some of these conquestors and transit brats (those who don’t know how to behave when they see new subway or rail cars on their first day of revenue service) were going to the Amtrak Wilmington Yard (where new engines get delivered and old engines get scrapped) and derail the engines. So this is what I said: Do that and I’ll see you in 10 years and I hope this teaches you a lesson for trespassing in a spot you don’t belong.

Lawrence St Posted January 8 Author Share #42 Posted January 8 (edited) I’m more concerned with the fact that Hillside Avs layups are all within active stations…and no one saw these kids playing with a train and thought “maybe I should call 911?” Edited January 8 by Lawrence St 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An RTO employee here already confirmed the kids snuck in through the ends of the station and walked on the layup tracks to get onto the equipment. One of the videos also showed them wearing an MTA vest so nobody would really bat an eye if someone in MTA PPE got onto the tracks to do their job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brakethrow Posted January 9 Share #45 Posted January 9 There's something in our NYC tap water. 😅 You don't hear of kids from other cities using the subway as their personal playground - at least not to this extent. Also, can dispatchers tell if a train has moved/what speed its going or only once it knocks down a signal? With how antique our system is, I always assumed the latter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been saying this for years “ya’ll divulge too much information on these forums and expect users to be diligent and not go out and vandalize or joy ride” there needs to be moderation on the information leaked on these forums much more than the pointless questions or petty insults thrown between two 14 year olds on here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence St Posted January 10 Author Share #48 Posted January 10 Some good news out of this week; the 16 year old who operated the train has been arrested and charged with 5 counts, reckless endangerment, criminal tampering, criminal trespass, trespass and disorderly conduct. I believe one of these is a felony. https://pix11.com/news/local-news/boy-16-accused-of-driving-train-car-in-queens-nypd/?fbclid=IwAR2Iji1AVdICqSm_2Sr6pv25XXkBWU_h0vgdRdHTh72-I-_nASxdxQSMKWc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of this info is public and not for nothing some people within RTO were giving information,keys and etc. and they still work down here. Y'all act like there isn't shit in your own backyard when clearly it is. The majority of the incidents were because a few in your department was giving info and equipment to underage teenagers and adults to do f**kery. Certain people used discord as a playground to share confidential information which in turn turned ugly but yet that person is still employed with NYCT. You can't say some shit like this when there is so much stuff going on behind the scenes. A lot of these things can be avoided if does a better job, They always pick and choose who they fire and who they keep. Certain people I know have lost their job over shit that weren't even their fault but yet someone who is a conductor that shared personal info on social media info for clout is still employed. The one thing i hate about this community is the amount of people who they protect knowingly knowing they are either a sexual predator who prey on underage minors or a person who constantly break into shit. Most people on this forum know who they are and they stay quiet because they want that source to continue feeding them the info and the clout they crave. lets not forget how certain people who work in NYCT who are high level allow people on NYCT property who don't even work down here.
