They literally just slapped in the CBTC equipment, and called it a day. Would it have killed the MTA to at least replace the lighting, and paint what is peeling? |

On the A cars, that cabinet behind the cab which appears on one of my pictures.On the B cars, nothing. Former R142A B cars converted into R188 C cars (i.e. the car whose number ends with 2) may have a different truck (like the new R188 C cars) to support the free-rolling tachometer axle. |

That means the trains have to make less noise. One way they do that is to not sound the horn when passing through stations. Especially since there are apartment buildings nearby. People have to sleep, you know. |

The train can still turn at Woodside - 61 Street on Track M, but it would require the Train Operator to key-by two automatic signals to "wrong rail" against traffic back to the interlocking at 74 Street - Broadway. Which is a slow move, which would necessitate less service. It's not worth it for one additional stop, when everyone can transfer to the IND at 74 Street.But the more important reason is that there was also a track replacement project between Woodside and 69 Street. |
