VIDEO: Rockaway Shuttle Action & Canarsie Tunnel Project Commentary

Posted by Transportation Hub on Tue May 14 18:10:28 2019

Due to signal modernization, train service was suspendend between Rockaway Blvd and The Rockaways. Shuttle train service operated between Rockaway Park and Far Rockaway, using the connection between the two branches at Hammels Wye. Fleet consist of the new R179, handful fullset of R46s, and an R32. It was nice to see a variety of diverse train fleet owning the Rockaways for the weekend. Aircraft action was also a part of this video as well.



As part of the L Project, The MTA released a PowerPoint Document based on the Tunnel Rehabilitation Project of the Canarsie Tubes.

This thread, along with the one from DJ Hammers, is informative - I appreciate the accompanying text. I thought those shuttles were all signed S on the front but the R32 layup in the yard shows H - I thought that is just the designation to differentiate it from 42nd and Franklin Avenue shuttles. Is the H for Hammels Wye or is it in honor of our very own DJ Hammers who was featured prominently or prominently featured in The New York Times article?

Anyway, good work. By the way, I enjoyed your singing... the harmony was true and it was on key. The airplanes? Now that I could easily have done without. Other than that glaring mistake, thank you.
