What type of nonsense are you on? Just for that, I hope you catch that R160 and it breaks down.

A few pages ago him and another dude were bashing the R46’s talking about how they are causing lots of delays and they also talking about how they will take the and do a half hour walk. All we can do now is pay it no mind. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rude! and FYI, I only did that once, during ONE AM Rush hour because I didn't wake up on time. The others I have waited for the or have just walked to my office (or to the ) (a great deal of exercise which I'm glad to say is definitely showing results). I'm not a fan of cabs And I'm done adding fuel to this fire. Any additional gas-lighting or angry/bashing comments are on all of you Edited February 25, 2020 by darkstar8983 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you call me when you can ride the or without getting a heart attack because it's an R46. I'll stop getting angry and cool down for the rest of the day. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkstar8983 Posted February 26, 2020 Share #5912 Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) I just needed to close that on a high note. I’m done with senseless comments (unless they are direct insults towards me).

RR503 Posted February 26, 2020 Share #5913 Posted February 26, 2020 Good. Incessant, scab-picking, fact-averse discussions such as this make people with limited free hours but a wish to share real knowledge feel like these forums aren't worth the time. I would categorize myself as one of those people. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calvin Posted February 26, 2020 Share #5915 Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) Not for nothing, it's good for Jamaica's 46s to have fresh air outside aside from being underground all the time on the (with the ). Mostly, the is outside with the short in distance. Meanwhile, 160s at C.I: they tend to deep clean the cars a lot. With most of them at Jamaica, the appearance will be different (similar to ENY). 68/As: Mainly on the as the has 68s to have 1 class type train on 6 Av Exp/Grand Concourse. Currently, they are all over. Previously, counted 6-8 sets on the Astoria line. Sometimes, there's one of the rollsigns left blank. Also, flaws on those cars being on the is that most cars take away parts of the space for passengers to board on 2nd Av.

Around the Horn Posted February 26, 2020 Share #5917 Posted February 26, 2020 So y'all are going ballistic over a rolling stock swap but the (frankly criminal) lack of accessibility on the Astoria line doesn't bother you? That's where you draw the line of your outrage? 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enjineer Posted February 26, 2020 Share #5918 Posted February 26, 2020 I realized...nobody's said anything about the 68/As being on Astoria. The R46s are somehow a crime, yet the 68/As slide through unquestioned? lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deucey Posted February 26, 2020 Share #5924 Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) Me looking at everyone throwing a fit for some reason over R46’s being trains and running on tracks. So can we: 1) stop dragging folks for having feelings about the swap 2) stop losing minds over fabricated metal and electronics being somewhere it wasn’t before but not causing environmental or economic damage - since complaining about them being in Astoria is not going to get Cuomo to order them back to Ozone Park and Elmhurst en masse; 3) Let @darkstar8983 be in his feelings over brown and tan panels matched with orange bucket seats; and 4) Let everyone have relief from your feelings regarding the aforementioned, @darkstar8983? Or I can close comments for a few days. (I know how to use that button.) Because this was beyond a stupid and pointless fight.

Wait, so no one is going to point out just how steep the trackbed is leading to the terminal there at Ditmars Boulevard??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
