The first 10 car train is now in service testing on the A as of yesterday.
up until I want to say about ten years ago, the conductor would move from one cab to the other while the train was still moving, but stopped that in favor of safety, so now they wait for the train to stop, which causes the delay. this is mostly a deal with full cab fixed set trains. The older SMEEs ...
Pretty sure they're still using it.
If you mean the subway refuse collection trains, the best place to scope them out is near the access points to their main yards, such as 38th street Yard in Brooklyn, next to the 9th Ave station on the D. I also often saw one along the Queens Blvd line in the early afternoon heading east along the l...
B division also uses a phonetic for each line name as part of the call sign
IE "Delta Stillwell 14:23"
the problem with a purely schematic map is that it doesn't allow travelers to truly consider their options. For example; Let's say you've just spent the day watching tennis at Wimbledon. the matches are over and you're on your way out. the tube map makes it look like the District line and the Overgr...

The subway has to deal with the design baggage of not being meant to be one large system but three medium sized ones. There are lots of "logical" ideas that make sense, but they run into the realities of the system. The Orange M makes logical sense, but it still resulted in a loss of servi...
much like the 7 extension and the 34th street station cavern, they can dig the cut and cover section while the TBM is digging from the existing phase 1 section, and then tow it through pre dug area when it arrives
it would be much trickier because the culver express tracks aren't in use. going into the D5 pocket you're blocking the M wanting to make the switch and you're blocking the express track going the other direction. Cross platform transfers made without holding up the line would not be feasible. that'...
