MTA Dude Posted December 24, 2014 Share #8253 Posted December 24, 2014 The really needs to do some stuff to solve some stuff (I know, I said that weird). How about this: 1. Line Promotion Posters. 2. No Hobos on the Subway. 3. No Panhandling. 4. No Farebeating. 5. On lines with low intervals, schedule the more crowded train a minute behind the less crowded train. 6. STRICTER RULES! This is what I would like to see from the . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Javier Posted December 25, 2014 Share #8257 Posted December 25, 2014 Lets skip the rollsign discussion, does anyone know why after 57 Street / 7th Ave the connection to 63 Street is not powered? All the signals are dead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Javier Posted December 25, 2014 Share #8260 Posted December 25, 2014 My train today had 2 hobos sleeping on the floor of 2 subway cars and everybody was scared to sit down in the same car until we came to Times Square where I saw police carrying the both of them out the subway car and started doing drug testson them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CenSin Posted December 25, 2014 Share #8261 Posted December 25, 2014 But if one were to go into the work zone by accident, shoudlnt the signals be powered to stop it?A rule when designing safety systems is that everything has to be designed so that it takes no effort to knock everything down to safe mode. Think of the most basic state of the system, and then design it from there so that active effort is required to convert it into an operational state. For example, a hammer on the ground is in its most basic state; it cannot potentially hurt you, because gravity ensures that it does not go up. A hammer in your hands is in its operational state; and you must make an effort to hold it firmly so it doesn't drop and crush your toes (or hurt someone below). Similarly, if the signals were in their most basic state—unpowered and nonfunctional—then the tripcocks would remain up by default. Only when powered should it be possible to bring the tripcock down. You can imagine a large spring that keeps the tripcock in its up position, and a green or yellow signal fighting to push it down so a train can pass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainfan22 Posted December 25, 2014 Share #8264 Posted December 25, 2014 But if one were to go into the work zone by accident, shoudlnt the signals be powered to stop it?

RollOver Posted December 25, 2014 Share #8267 Posted December 25, 2014 express to 59 Street Like Daniel said, apparently, you completely forgotten that the is basically the shorten version of the . Once the short stops running at night, the full one makes every stop. Let's be real here and make things as easy to comprehend as possible.
