amazing!!!

Signal Maintainers of the world…. 👍🏻

The MTA has the gaul to make this video. The MTA NEEDS A WASTE AND INEFFICIENCY AUDIT BY AN OUTSIDE FIRM.

yall acting R211 is so innovative and shit, but the fact is these openings are so common, that its shameful that NYC doesn’t have it.

This video is very informative on how CBTC works. But it is in need of some serious upgrading. I'm amazed a lot of the equipment still functions.

Let’s go R211 is gonna be on Staten Island

Who here from Summer 2024

👍👍👍👍

no youtube, this is a subway yard, not the virus

Hey! Do different lines like start at lexicon avenue line

His voice somewhat reminiscent of Phil Ochs and Willie Nelson. Super fine. And superb guitar work.

Is this till a thing?

I. love MTA bus 🚌 ❤

Just stay away from the G train this summer. It's that simple.

@MTA @Hugo If you really want to improve the G train? Add more cars, from 4-5 cars to 8 cars on the G, extend the G to Forrest Hills or at least Queens Plaza. Repair, renovate and reopen the Bergen St. station lower level for the F train to use as an express (skipping 4 stops, from Bergen to 7th Ave) and the G as a local on the upper level. That way the F & G are not sharing the same trackway, cutting down commute time on the F and cutting the wait time between G trains. #MTA #GTrains #ImprovetheG

Insanely good

Can some line to bayside?

This is the best way to modernize the line as quickly as possible. Give the workers uninterrupted access to the tracks to get this done. People might not like it but there’s no gain without some pain...

The R211 is expected to expand the fleet. Once that’s done, G trains could become full-length. As for sending G trains to Forest Hills, not all of them have to go there. Instead, some of them can short-turn at 21st St using the pocket track which currently acts as a crossover for Court Sq (one stop north) which currently acts as the terminus. Also, local trains on the QBL don’t have to terminate at Forest Hills. One local service can go to Jamaica Center (due to the branch splitting after Briarwood which is a local station) and the others can go to 179th St. As for the express services, maybe one can go to 179th St and the other can short-turn at Forest Hills.

Come back Andy 😔

May this be the last major shutdown of the G train

What a disaster. Shuttle buses are about as fast as walking. Or slower when you have to wait.

Bullshit because you guys always saying you guys upgrading something on the G line or any other line

czar? wtf

For 15 years I traveled on these subways. The R160s, R43s, R28s, I remember being excited to see every train variation. And the fact it didn’t lose its charm and beauty is amazing.

I'd like to ask the M & F train czar's where those trains are at, because they never seem to run. And if they do manage to show up it's every hour on the hour.

how can i become the G train czar

Nothing is worth the risk of your life

I'm not surprised, I've been taking the G service almost every day for the past 6 years. It has always been messy service sometimes on weekdays, and it gets considerably worse, especially on weekend holidays. Don't try to make it look as if you are doing a service to those of us who use the G line daily. You are not! This specific thing you spoke about has already been happening with Shuttle busses for at least 2.5 - 3 years now. It's really suck that the MTA has been making a mockery of citizens tax dollars and still they would comes on here with more lies to it looks like they are helping.

I miss him bros....

747,200 pounds makes it more terrifying because I think of 747-200💀

G to Forest hills when?

One thing I already know about the G train shutdown is that my local line is going to be crippled by these service changes this summer.

What do say now?

Cool!

Well, this is awkward now. What a loss. No Congestion Pricing will set back the subways for decades.

HOW FREQUENT WILL THE BUSES RUN? I HAD TO WAIT 40 MINUTES FOR A BUS BECAUSE THE G WAS SHUT DOWN.

So are we gonna talk about the B105 G train shuttle bus route that will run the full length of the G line. Check my community tab for more on it

Add 10 cars & I will forgive you.

At least I don’t live near the G nor use it routinely but I bet this signal modernization work will have a lot of good effects once completed.

i just hope there are decent bus treatments at choke points along the route to keep bus speeds up!

to halt congestion pricing is to let millions of people down and add many more years of waiting to a public transit system that is still playing catch-up

Hilarious. This timeline is so unrealistic. Don't lie to your customers!!

Close it until the work is completed.

0:11 R42?

I hope the MTA also cleans the stations inside the G Line. They have a lot of time to do so and it will make the G train a much more pleasant train to ride. Oh and as well making it 8-10 cars!

I prefer the soft shell

THE FEDS NEED TO TAKE OVER THE MTA

Just extend the G to Forrest Hills
