And after 3 years of sheer patience......, posted by Train Man Paul : Metro-North's Best Conductor FOR ALL 3 LINES!!! on Fri Aug 3 09:35:17 2012. 5301Fishbowl (especially Fish if I get MLVs.....show Fish how it's done!! :-D)Of course, working those pieces of crap on a train that only makes a few stops is a lot easier and different than working a train that makes 13 stops with mostly low level platforms, and with people getting on and off constantly. BTW, not sure if you got my e-mail a few weeks ago, I no longer work those damn cars, I made the move to Gladstone...nothing but 3 or 4 car MU sets for me now, and no having to deal with Amtrash and their stupidity! :-) |

There are several possible interpretations of the name. A popular story said that it meant "in spite of the Devil", but apparently this is now thought unlikely to be true. |

You don't need an invite to ride that train, and everyone is welcome to ride it. Anyone can buy a ticket. So I'm not sure what you mean by inviting people and welcoming them to ride it. Both are meaningless in this situation. It's not like you are going to allow them to ride for free or ride something normally off-limits to the public. |

The only drawback is that I've seen more vomit in just over a month than I did in the previous 13 1/2 years on the railroad! I guess that's the problem with trains out of Hoboken late at night... |

Keep it up, and I am going to have to fully quiz YOU on TA and NORAC, and if you slip up EVEN ONCE, I will see to it your qualifications SYSTEMWIDE in the TA are GONE, gone.....gone!! :-D LOLWell, I will give you a heads up when I land a gig once the service starts up again. Come on out, as always!! And yesterday I lucked out, most of my day was M-8s (yep the round trip to New Canaan had a six car set, whereas it usually ALWAYS gets old shit!!!), and would have been great until they hit me off with 6 M-2s for 1398 (which sucked!!! :-P) |

Good, much easier on my knees/hips/legs than those damn multilevels. My only gripe are the end body doors, which are a pain in the ass to open since they are so heavy. And having to open the traps 19 times per trip when I work a local between Gladstone and Hoboken. But I'll take that over the multilevels any day! :-) |
