Definitely a series on NYC transit incidents is a must! The Times Square wreck, Malbone Street wreck, Williamsburg Bridge wreck, even those incidents with foreign objects touching the 3rd rail causing fires at nearby stations (which may or may not be able to fit in one video). This was a STELLAR breakdown!

Even though I no longer live in New York I remember this when I was in high school and it was all over the news and I was amazed to see how mangled those trains were as a result of the impact of that accident.

Ok understand, the dispatcher should have done his job and NOT let the operator sign in. The operator could have called out sick. The conductor should have pulled the emergency cord after the first station overrun and taken the train out of service. The conductor also should have walked up to the operator and asked him what's wrong? Both of their jobs are at stake. If the conductor takes proper action, the train doesn't continue in passenger service.

I had gotten a phone call that morning from a motor instructor (now TSS) friend of mine telling me what happened. When I reported to the Dyre Avenue terminal, my conductor and I were told all crews will be under intense scrutiny because of this. We ended up doing 6 shuttles to E. 180th Street that day. That incident changed EVERYTHING at TA, and made random drug testing federal law for all railroad and transit employees.

As is often said...those rules are written in blood. In this case, they're in the blood of the five customers who died and the motorman of that J train who died. I wonder if the supervisor was also fired. Ray had shown up in tennis shoes, instead of rubberized boots, in addition to being drunk. While off-duty, Steven Darden could have also pulled the brake (he was riding the train back home and was still on board when disaster finally hit).

Video was excellently done! Instead of showing random stock and unrelated content during the narration, you showed relevant footage (shot by you?) of similar trains and locations. Five Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🙂

Yes, all of the footage in this video was shot by me. The pictures are from various sources (found throughout the video). I tried to put in all of the rolling stock that was similar to the ones involved in the crash, and not just some random, newer train.

I believe there was a derailment on a Bronx bound D train leaving Columbus Circle during Afternoon Drive Home (an idiot pulled the emergency stop cord & brakes on one car locked up) causing major damage to train & tunnel + the platform was so full, people were falling on the tracks & having body parts cut off. Do you have this (somewhere in the mid 70's) ?

I remember this incident big time! I was like a Junior in High School just before my Senior Year. I had a job in Midtown on 23rd Street and Park Ave. The Lexington Ave line was shut down for awhile. I had to take the 7th Ave line instead and walk across, which was a little inconvenience because this was before the Metro Card came out, so there was no free transfer between Subway and Bus. This dude was HIGH as a Kite!! SMDH 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤬

Please do a video about the lost 76th Street Station. It is an extension of the IND Fulton Street Line, and its existence has been debated by rail fans for years.
