The standard 1/2" KO (sized for 1/2" EMT the KO is of course bigger than that) worked perfectly.The company that sold the tokens to the MTA assured them that no other entity in the US was using that size token. D'oh! I wonder *why*! Little more research on the part of somebody would have turned up that flaw. Worse for the Station Clerks were the Glass Tokens that would break after being used. Those were devised after the Police invented a way to let the token drop into a receiver before falling into the pail. That way when they stopped some one they could pull the evidence to proff their malfeasance. The glass would work the turnstile and then shatter leaving the fuss with no evidence, and the Clerk holding the bag since he had no slug to turn in with the tokens. ROAR |
