Was told it's a rail condition. But the D Word is popping up in my head... If it's enough to suspend service all ways, it's serious. I hope to be wrong.

Definitely sounds like at least a power off. Grounded shoebeam perhaps?

Right now, no southbound local service from 57 St to Canal St. All southbound trains running express stops. They are still fixing train with mechanical problem at 28 St

Unca Harry is around every now and then, he's just too well to mark up. :)

But yeah, if all four tracks are out, then somebody pulled the BIG knife switch.

Sounding more and more like a knife switch on a car had to get yanked and unlike the old days when we just looked away and waited for the light show with the company wood, they probably yanked all power to make it "safe" ... if it was something more serious than that, I'd guess it would have been down a lot longer.

Thanks, Kirk!

P.S. Keep one of our Branford Colleagues in your thoughts. Jeff H. was in a car accident a week or so ago. He apparently has sustained a hip injury, but isn't serious enough for surgery. Jeff will be spending time at a rehab facility.

Here's to hoping he gets back to the Museum soon. He was a mentor to me. I must be feeling nostalgic, as I can remember hanging out in the shop until the wee hours of the morning while we worked on 1001! He used to drive me to the house. Seemed like a whole other life time...

You're in my thoughts, Jeff.

Wow. That sucks. :(

Jeff's a very knowledgeable guy, the museum wouldn't function were it not for his skills. Every time I've gone down there, he was always in the midst of some special project and took the time to talk shop with me for the few minutes here and there that he could spare. Like him a LOT. PLEASE extend my warmest wishes!

One of my friends say it was a train breakdown. Lots of people are transferring to the B or D line @ 34 St to Brooklyn at the time of the incident.

sounds like a minor derailment I mean very minor either that or maybe a rail condition,But what I really want to know oh why that had to suspend all service for that.A lot of time they wrote "train with mechanical problems" yet they sometimes shut down a whole segment,

Out of this whole board someone had to be there.

Jeff,
If you're reading this, best wishes for a complete and healty recovery.
Thanks for your technical and detailed posts explaining equipment.
I'm one of many people you've chatted with briefly, over the years, who were visitors at Branford. Operating one of the BU's you took the time to describe, very basically, the difference between various classes of gate cars in Brooklyn.
Again, best wishes for your recovery.....
