IRT Bronx Express Posted November 6, 2009 Share #51 Posted November 6, 2009 I've taken the Express the most out of all the express trains out there. Not to mention, its the most reliable service out there, except when the has to switch to the local track because one train is in the middle track or when the has to wait for the to leave 138th St. Hence, 6 Express Train.

buswizard Posted November 6, 2009 Share #52 Posted November 6, 2009 I just thought up an idea of a name when I joined my first forum. It popped in my mind after 25 seconds of thinking of a never-before used username on such a forum. So now you know the Bus Wizard as HIMSELF!!

Zman Posted November 7, 2009 Share #54 Posted November 7, 2009 My name was given to me back when I was working as a C/R handswitchman at East New York Yard. On radio conversations during yard moves between the Head, Foot and Deck of the yard, the three H/Smen refer to the other by name via radio in order to communicate train moves. My last name starts with Z, but can be tricky to pronounce. So one of the guys started calling me Zman and it stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRG Posted November 7, 2009 Share #56 Posted November 7, 2009 My initials, per se. for "Le" (first syllable of my first name), for "roy" (second syllable) and then for "Graham". As for 5784, those numbers came in when I was looking at my phone, and you guys know how the letters are arranged on the phone's keypad (1 had ABC, 2 had DEF, etc.). Well, I threw in my middle initial in between R and G and there's 5784! And lrg5784 was born...lol. I also like the "Lifted Research Group" company, although I haven't even bought their clothes at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted November 8, 2009 Share #57 Posted November 8, 2009 Same name I've used from the start at Riders Diaries and Subchat. Picked it from the 2/4/5 stop 149th-Grand concourse as the first station in the Bronx i ever visited. And I couldn't think of anything else at the time when I was selecting a name and it's pretty much stuck ever since. I don't think I'll change it. Even though I did change my name a few times, I've grown attached to this name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTS CNG Command Posted November 8, 2009 Share #58 Posted November 8, 2009 My penname is based simply off my favorite bus, the TMC RTS-06 CNG, and my favorite private bus company, Command. Initially, my penname was going to be RTS CNG Commander, but it was too long, so I had to shorten it. I've actually grown fond of this name and have no interest of changing it anytime soon. Plus, I wanted a different penname, one that reflects my love for bus and train transport. I'm also a part of various cartoon and video game fandoms like Digimon and Sonic the Hedgehog, and I go under the name Dark Qiviut there. Rather than connect my involvement with fandom to this forum, I wanted to create a new penname as a barrier to separate the two. (For fandoms like Sonic, I see it as a good thing. I'm part of some friendship-breaking fandom politics there, and it can get really annoying.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColumbiaDeath Posted November 8, 2009 Share #61 Posted November 8, 2009 I was writing a research paper in 11th Grade. My topic was Alternatives to Illegal Street Racing. I was browsing a local street racing web forum and I needed to log in to search. I began to register, but I needed a username. The girl next to me was doing a paper on the Columbia space shuttle disaster. I looked over and thought Columbia...Death. And so: ColumbiaDeath.

R32 3348 Posted November 9, 2009 Share #63 Posted November 9, 2009 I changed my handle for logistical/OCD reasons. My handle over at Straphangers, TTMG, and Manhattan Express Forums is R32 3348. My handle at Subchat would be R32 3348 but I never got my password for that account and am using my friend's handle which he doesn't care for anymore. I originally picked R32 3348 on Straphangers, my first forum, back in March of 2007 because the R32s were my favorite cars and 3348 was the oddball of the fleet. The was also my favorite line, and still is one of my favorites to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoSpectacular Posted November 9, 2009 Share #66 Posted November 9, 2009 It all started with an instant messaging conversation I had about 3 years ago... I don't remember what we were talking about but I'll always remember that line where my friend told me I was a "spectacular" person, so it stuck with me as a nickname pretty much after that.

EE Broadway Local Posted November 9, 2009 Share #67 Posted November 9, 2009 Hi! My username is in memory of the 70(EE) Broadway Local. Monday November 26, 1967 to Friday August 27, 1976. The was one of the new routes created by Christie Street and ran weekdays during "normal hours". I thought it was neat that Queens Boulevard had an 70(EE) local and 70(E) express and that the 70(EE) went to Broadway stopping at 49th Street while the 70(E) went to Eighth Avenue stopping at the Lower Level of 50th Street. The route was 71st Avenue-Continental Avenue to Whitehall and on Queens Boulevard: 70(GG) 70(EE) local; 70(E) 70(F) express and on Broadway: 70(RR) 70(EE) local; 70(N) 70(QB) express. The cars I recall best were the R16s and R1-R9s. When the 70(EE) was cancelled (the was also cancelled the same day) the 70(N) was extended from 57th Street-Seventh Avenue. In 1979, the 70(EE) would've become yellow. The 70(EE) (and today the late nights) served my favorite Queens Boulevard station - 67th Avenue. Alternative, I considered something with my favorite bus route - the B67 which is based out of the Mr. Jackie Gleason Depot and which serves Seventh Avenue and Park Slope in Brooklyn.
