You could run em between port washington and shea stadium station. People from manhattan can take the (7) to get to it if penn station is down

Why do they use the p32's on the waterbury branch? The danbury and wassaic shuttles use the bl20's why doesnt the waterbury branch use them?

For the older M2/4/6 on a weekend, head to the New Canaan branch for your best chance of getting one. For the first time ever last Sunday I got an M8 both directions heading to and from Bridgeport however I did see plenty of the older trains still running. Its just a luck of the draw, I would try yo...

There are a few M2s here and there still with rollsigns. M2s? I mean, maybe possible I don't know, but are you sure those weren't just M4 pairs [I know there are more triplets than 8934/8935 that have had their middle D car removed - forgot which ones... I also know an M6 or two has undergone this ...

There are a few M2s here and there still with rollsigns, I see them more often on the M4s and M6s which are newer and thus had less heavy maintenance. As for the rollsigns, sometimes they are accurate. I know there are M3As with them here and there as well.

I remember reading somewhere that around december they park the inspection train in GCT, is there a possibility of that this year?

I wonder if the Port Jervis line got destroyed again like last year? It seems this time around its the Hudson line that is going to be gone for a while. Heres another question, metro north cross honors monthlys from Hudson Line stations during the storm (they probably would anyway because the zone n...

is #1916/1963 and #1934/1981 the regular MTA branded locomotives and equipment (as in not the shore line east stuff)

Also are there any weekend trains that use shore line east equipment?

I think I may have asked this before but I cant find where. Someone said that one of the midday weekday Waterbury branch trains uses Shore Line East equipment instead of the usual shoreliners and bl20gh. Which train is it and is it a regular occurance?

Valley Stream is a decent photo location but its a ghetto area so be careful. Wantagh is pretty good as well, Massapequa has nice columns. Long Beach is interesting with the drawbridge Broadway is an interesting stop with the Korean billboards near the station Mineola is good but a bit overdone in m...

I had to look this one up, I'm a Chicago resident so I know next to nothing about NYCTA. It appears the Rockaway lines are a inverted-T shape. It also appears to front a beach on the Atlantic Ocean, with lots of highrise towers on the beach. Are these considered "the projects" or a housin...

thanks for the advice everyone! I may have to do Philly in two days just because there's so much to see, including the commuter rail with those shiny new Silverliner 5's
