Finally, Phase 2 is underway!!! After 8 years w/o any construction happening—the MTA board approved the contract to build 3 new stations & to extend the (Q) train to Harlem to connect w/ Lex Av Line. This will make public transit accessible 4 so many folks. We can expect the (Q) to 125 St by Q3 2032

MTA alert regarding the Boarding Change on the (Q) line at 86th Street due to “Urgent repairs.” (Aug 12-14, Tue to Thu, 12:01 AM to 5:00 AM)

Have you noticed that the Second Avenue Subway’s tracks have been making bad, loud noises?

I think the MTA found out…

Also, this is the first time there has ever been a General Order (GO) on the Second Avenue Line.

I’ve heard this program before. My friend was there. I’ll be attending the Rockaway by Rail, New York Transit Museum event though.

R211A (B) to 96th Street is crazy! Unfortunately, I wasn’t there. Good announcements!
I did ride an R160 (Q) via Whitehall Street the other day though.

A solicitor entered my train car in the 125th Street to 59th Street-Columbus Circle tunnel and said “All eyes on that sexy chocolate guy—that’s me.”
Are you serious?

😒

YouTube video by LuigiTunnels NYC Hunting for the R211T (G) Train! *SUPER LATE UPLOAD, I know*

Please watch my new video of me riding the R211T (G) train. Yes, I know it’s a super late upload. It takes me a long time to edit videos. I still hope you enjoy!

Sorry, I couldn’t fit everything in one post…

Hi, everyone! I know I haven’t been on here that much recently. I’m spending the week in Long Beach (NY) 2C relatives. Picked up a treat @ a fabulous ice cream place in Lido Beach; Frozen Crow. If you’re in the area, U should try it.

Marvel nearby has such a long line but this place is always empty

This advertisement is being displayed on bus screens, too.

MTA advertisement on an R211A digital display- “MetroCard is retiring.”

The MetroCard is retiring. Please tap and go instead and stop swiping. That era is over.

I don't understand why the administration keeps saying that other countries pay our tariffs. This is simply not true even in the most optimistic scenario (e.g., a US importer negotiates something with their foreign partner). If the policy is good, why lie about it?

MTA severe weather notice. “Severe weather could impact your commute A flood watch is in effect for New York City today. Please give yourself extra time and use caution when traveling. Plan your trip and view service changes in the MTA or TrainTime apps. Updated July 31, 2025 at 3:01 PM”

I’m on a LIRR right now. Everyone was soaked and it is an extremely crowded train.

There is a notice on the MTA app first thing you open the app regarding the inclement weather. Please use caution when traveling & be safe.

I apologize that you’re struggling in Gaza. Unfortunately, I do not have any money I’m able to donate. I wish you the best of luck though.

Oh no! The same incident at West 4th Street occurred again today.
Yes, the EXACT SAME INCIDENT. West 4th Street just can’t get fixed. This is major hub that the IND division must reply on for its lines to function.
🫥

Like, an (R) train ran via CROSSTOWN today…
That’s like a once in a lifetime thing.

Apparently, there was major service disruption to the entire IND division due to a loss of power to the signaling system at W 4 St.
I mean, no West 4th Street = No IND.
It’s where all the IND lines intersect.
But this is the biggest disruption caused from 1 station’s issues. It’s even on the news…

(R) train via Crossotwn to Bedford Nostrand report on Discord server. R160A (R) to Bedford-Nostrand via Crosstown (S) 8688-8692 + 9543-9547 (N) Last Seen: Broadway at 10:17 AM (edited)

R46 (G) train and R68 (B) train via Culver Express approaching / skipping 4th Avenue-9th Street Station.

R160B Alstom (F) train via Crosstown at Court Square Station.

WHAT. A. LONG. WEEK.

I guess the R211A (B) train did not return after joining the (G) rotation for the weekend…
I see nothing in the Discord server about it.

Can someone please explain why it is that too many politicians only seem to want the votes of the prejudiced and the ignorant? To the extent that they are actively repelling anyone capable of rational thought and decency. Why the pathetic need to appease the bigot vote, at everyone else’s expense?

You, as well.

Good night. ✨🌙💙

I hope today treated you well, and if not, that tomorrow gives you a fresh chance to reset and move forward. Take some time to rest, recharge, and disconnect from the noise. Wishing you a peaceful night and a clear mind for whatever comes next.

I gotta catch up on YouTube.

New video coming up!

So a mistake I made on my end while producing my videos (raw footage) is that I kept recording countless videos in the NYC subway system, but I stored them away for months & never edited them. Thus, now I have a lot of outdated videos from months ago that I feel weird uploading

…alright.

Good night. 🌙
