IRT Bronx Express Posted August 24, 2011 Share #626 Posted August 24, 2011 One of the sign makers IRT Bronx Express mentioned above :cool: The only crosstown through central park with three digits <flipdot sign> The QM2A soon to be the QM20 <horizon LED sign> Yes, right on point! :cool: Also, college will start soon, and it's possible that it'll be my final semester. I'll be taking some really tough courses (and one of them I might drop after a couple of weeks), so my sign-creation time may be limited until the winter. That said, great job, everyone, and keep up the good work! :tup::tup: Make sure that you don't lose your files. And good luck with college, it can be a real farce when it comes to large assignments... Anyone can begin requesting signs now... :tup: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broadway Local Posted August 25, 2011 Share #628 Posted August 25, 2011 Here are the Titans sign I made yesterday! Felt bored, so I made this. That warmed me up! I also forgot to add, "LIMITED" on the S89 sign. Hope you enjoy these, it's free if you want to put them in your signature. More will be coming! :tup: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirJokaPlaya Posted August 25, 2011 Share #629 Posted August 25, 2011 Thanks for my signs and Orange scrolling signs...............NICE! Side Note: Anyone on the 139 would still get the wrong bus even if there was multi-color signs since no one pays attention to it! Ugh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRT Bronx Express Posted August 25, 2011 Share #631 Posted August 25, 2011 Excellent signs, R44 and Coneyisland. :cool: Thanks for my signs and Orange scrolling signs...............NICE! Side Note: Anyone on the 139 would still get the wrong bus even if there was multi-color signs since no one pays attention to it! Ugh. Maybe I might make scrolling Horizon LED signs, using the same flipdot character limit. I know I saw a few express bus pics having that somewhere... I made a new fiipdot sign. The Bx30 used to terminate at Bellamy Loop in Co-op City during the mid-'80s. I don't know when it was sent to Earhart Lane... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broadway Local Posted August 27, 2011 Share #640 Posted August 27, 2011 Before the Hurricane starts, I would like to present two things: Firstly, the Q64 Titans (There is a difference between this Titan, and the other ones I made): Lastly, the 2011-2012 New Flyer C40LF Titans: ^^Yes, this is my fantasy engine "Vertexic D9G EPA 12 SDE"^^ - Looks like the Volvo or Caterpillar Engines, but it's colored blue, and the engine is designed differently. - Sounds like the Cummins Westport ISL G with Allison B-400R WTEC on the Orion VII Next Generation CNG, if the Vertexic engine is coupled with the Allison Transmission. The difference is that the engine can make silent noise to bus. - I got the name "Vertexic" from my LED sign, called the "Luminator Vertex." The engine is pronounced (Fur-Di-Sick). - D9G means means "Diesel Series 9 Natural Gas" - EPA 12 means Environmental Protection Agency, which makes engine more Environmentally friendly, and 12 means "2012" the year. - SDE stands for "Straight Diesel Engine", so it reminds the transmission manufacturer that the engine only allows diesel transmissions only. That's not the only fantasy engine I have. I also have in my mind, "Vertexic D9 EPA 12 SDE- For 40-Doot Diesel Buses Only, Vertexic D8.9 EPA 12 SDE- For Articulated Buses Only, and Vertexic D13 EPA 12 DXE- For Express Coach Buses Only." DXE stands for Diesel Express Engine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRT Bronx Express Posted August 29, 2011 Share #645 Posted August 29, 2011 Impressive signs, guys. :cool: I'm working on TWO new signs that weren't presented yet, and one existing sign with a new set of fonts. Take a guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a guess. The two signs… 1. Luminator MatrixMax sign (seen on the sides of buses with flipdots and the fronts of the old TMCs, 8000-8566). 2. Side Luminator Horizon (found on the MCIs, 16-1700s LIBs, Orion VII HEV 6400-high 6600s). The existing sign…the Bx30 fantasy from recently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTS CNG Command Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share #647 Posted August 29, 2011 Excuse the double-post, but I have finished three more QM(route number) PBL signs for today!

IRT Bronx Express Posted August 30, 2011 Share #648 Posted August 30, 2011 The two signs… 1. Luminator MatrixMax sign (seen on the sides of buses with flipdots and the fronts of the old TMCs, 8000-8566). I believe this is how the front flipdot signs looked like on the RTS buses, when they were around in the '90s. [100x8] Some side flipdots look like this today. [100x7] 2. Side Luminator Horizon (found on the MCIs, 16-1700s LIBs, Orion VII HEV 6400-high 6600s).This one, right? [100x7] The existing sign…the Bx30 fantasy from recently. Perhaps I didn't explain perfectly... What I'm trying to say is, I want to use an already existing font (non-fantasy font), and recreate it to look somewhat flat and condensed. Maybe the answer is obvious or something... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCtrainfan01 Posted August 30, 2011 Share #649 Posted August 30, 2011 can I request another animated sign in the font that the MCI D4500CL uses: BxM4 WOODLAWN 242 ST BxM4 via CONCOURSE via KATONAH AV thanks again in advance 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRT Bronx Express Posted August 30, 2011 Share #650 Posted August 30, 2011 You must be talking about the Horizon LED. I'll do all Horizon LED signs. :cool: @Casey Stengel: I didn't forget your request. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
