Threxx Posted July 29, 2012 Share #1626 Posted July 29, 2012 Gorgor, no need to make attacks like that. But yes, Wallyhorse's idea was really stupid. If he didn't act like he was retarded, we wouldn't have to say that. There are some situations where it's impossible to be the nice guy... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorgor Posted July 29, 2012 Share #1627 Posted July 29, 2012 NEXT 7th Avenue LOWER LEVEL cannot be used. This affects uptown and Queens bound . In addition, there is a stalled Queensbound train directly north of the 57th Street station. The Brooklyn bound track is unaffected. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threxx Posted July 29, 2012 Share #1628 Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) NEXT 7th Avenue LOWER LEVEL cannot be used. This affects uptown and Queens bound . In addition, there is a stalled Queensbound train directly north of the 57th Street station. The Brooklyn bound track is unaffected. : Most Queensbound trains via Crosstown, others to 57th Street-6th Avenue terminating on the Southbound track. / : Via 8th Avenue Local/Expres. : Via 6th Avenue to Church Avenue in Brooklyn to replace northbound service. I think Wallyhorse sees this "puzzle" differently...He thinks the point is to run service as efficiently as possible (from an operations standpoint), not as logically as possible (from a rider's standpoint). That's why he'll say things that make sense from an operations standpoint, e.g. "Extend the to Brooklyn to serve riders", but that will confuse the hell out of riders. It's not that he's a foamer, it's just that he doesn't really understand the purpose of this thread. Well we've tried to say that, but he dosen't listen. He expects people to look at friggin track maps. Now is that not foamerish or what??? Edited July 29, 2012 by ThrexxBus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallyhorse Posted July 31, 2012 Share #1644 Posted July 31, 2012 What he doesn't realize that the Transit Museum is an actual museum that people pay to enter. He either wants to close down the museum for the duration of the scenario, or COMPLETELY SCREW OVER anyone who went to the museum to go see the trains. The old trains is a major component of the museum, and was the only reason that I ever went there years ago. If I went to the museum, paid my admission, and then found out that I couldn't see those old subway cars because some moron decided to reroute an active subway line to terminate there I would be FURIOUS. Oh, I completely understand, and that's why in more recent scenarios I have avoided using the TM. I was simply pointing out that was the only option to avoid single tracking, and it was shown why that would not work (which was well illustrated upthread). And yes, what I try to do is make sure as many stations as possible get served in one way or another and keep as many services running at least part of their routes as normal as possible even in an emergency. There was a time when you were expected to pay attention towards unexpected service changes and keep up to date as much as possible, which is what I do comes from. It's something that seems to have been lost upon later generations that to me is their loss if they fail to realize that sometimes, routes need to be substituted because of unforeseen emergencies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
