The justice system in this city is a joke and if someone were to be arrested for this assault they might just be back out on the street the next day.

Most parents don’t raise their kids anymore. Instead they spoil them and leave them alone and when these kids go out and do stupid things the first thing parents want to do is point the finger at someone else as if it’s someone else’s responsibility to make sure their child is behaving. Then if you confront some of these kids they want to argue you down and it’s just a headache. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R179 8258 Posted November 7, 2023 Share #30260 Posted November 7, 2023 I know that the MTA main focus is making all the IND lines fully CBTC. But what about Jamaica Line ? I know that the line is a BMT line but aren't 100% NTT ? So shouldn't that line be worthy of discussion ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understand, some parts of the IND still has the original signals from the IND was built where's the J line signals was redone in the 90s. Concourse is IND and is not getting CBTC, it's signal system was redone in the 90s also. Edited November 7, 2023 by trainfan22 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish the NYTM did a summer run like the Holiday Train with a regular trip rather than a ticketed hours-long trip, but it would probably cost them too much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calvin Posted November 8, 2023 Share #30267 Posted November 8, 2023 (edited) It's said that ridership is at pre-pandemic level, but the respect to others hasn't changed.

These conquestors (I don’t call them kids) love to disrupt service. The same dude at the end was the one who vandalized the R46 Broadway line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The is basically a short-turn making local stops while the full regular one runs express. If you rode the at night, then basically you rode the . Like the above poster said, both routes run alongside together or on the same tracks together in both Manhattan and Brooklyn. There isn’t anything wrong with treating them like a combined entity. But there is also nothing wrong with acknowledging them as separate entities since they still are indeed, separate routes; despite the fact that the route is fully confined within the route. @Lawrence St's assessment is correct since the R211s are currently only assigned to the (the cars are still in the early stages of their rollout).
