The brakes on the 62's are very 'grippy' to begin with, combine that with a rookie TO and excessive grade timers (to protect the crossover in the Steinway tubes?) and you get a rough ride. Make the best out of that rough ride: count the number of brake applications going to Queens. So far 10 is the most I've seen - almost got motion sickness on that ride. The good TOs will do the same run with 3 or 4 applications. |
