I know he's not one to lie, but it seems kinda odd that the employees would be so blatantly breaking that rule. I mean everyone knows the trains fly through that tube. Unless everyone knows the supervision doesn't care, you'd think these T/O's would all be getting written up.

I agree that running the express 50-60 mph on most lines would help compared with 30 mph.

if you were able to improve acceleration rates above 30mph, and increase top speed, it's not unreasonable to see a 1 hour train trip turn into 40 minutes. That's a lot of time.

As to the public liking a 5 mph/s acceleration rate, seated, maybe; I'm skeptical in standing situations where you might not be firmly attached to a pole, or you are weighted down with a heavy bag, or with kids...

Service acceleration for the MP89's in Paris is 4.9 mph/sec. They have in service for a decade.

I had a feeling it wasn't linear at all. Especially when you are going 7 miles an hour, and the T/O (on older SMEES, 32-42s) yanks the handle, you hear the shoes bong against the wheels, a short screech, and stop- all under one second.

7 mph/s decel rate? Maybe at those slow, less than eight miles, speeds. Train has a lot les kinetic energy, the wheels are moving slowly, and if the wheels do slip, it will only be for a fraction of a second, so no flats. Also, passengers are moving slowly, so they don't loose much of their balance.
NYCTA Cars have no DECEL problems, it is Acceleration where the problem lies, and low top speed. Especially when a train approaches a standard 4 car marker at 30+ miles.

BTW, PCC specs called for 9.0Mph/s maximum deceleration at 20 miles.

But, in fact, the relationship is not constant. Brake rates increase as speed decreases.

If anything the NTSB braking tests show the reverse. The average braking rate is a decreasing function of initial velocity.

Therefore it is not correct to plug into the equation for constant acceleration.

That depends on purpose of the estimate and how accurate it must be. There are different average rates, based on tests, for different initial speed and track condition (wet/dry). However, to find the maximum stopping distance, one need only use the minimum average braking rate from the test data.

Is this an adequate estimate? That depends on the application. It should be for the question at hand - maximum stopping distance for a suicidal T/O.

I disagree. When the trains were covered with graffitti and the entire system was in worse shape, it gave the criminals a sense of belonging on the subways. It made them feel like they were in control, while good citizens avoided the subways.

I've run "experimental high performance stock" in BVE, and a savings of 20 minutes is to be expected on some lines, like the A. At least Ten minutes or so savings on the E. Ten minute savings on the C.

Note: i followed speed restrictions on curves (Went slower than what some operators take curves at to make time), and dwelled in stations longer than necessary on some regularly "unpredictable", or holding light stops. Also, the dwell times(door open) in bve seems to be set to 19 seconds, which is especially long for local stops along the C. I've been on trains that stopped, opend doors, closed doors, and started to move again in 10-14 seconds consistently, saving MORE time.
I wasn't gunning it either, being reasonable. I know where curve timers are, and pretended they were there, especially wheel detectors after switches(10 miles). I wrapped around on long, straight express runs though, and hit 60 in tubes, which IS REALISTIC. Though if there were "timers" on straight aways, i would ignore them, but they would add maybe a few minutes all together.
Also, i kept the trains with less than 2.5 mph/s accel to 20 miles, which then linearly drops off to about zero at 50-55 miles; no accel at 60 miles.
VERY realistic performance. Easy to come by. No 79 mile an hour runs, or PCC acceleration. I ran the "experiments" reasonably.
I would save even more time had i used, say, washington metro stock with 80 mile top speed and 3mph/s accel. I kept it more MTA style though.
Lots of way to improve efficiency for MTA.
CBTC and new cars NOT Required.

Hopefully the above post was a joke, but:
I would not avoid a form of transportation due to a slight risk of being attacked. Why? because it is stupid to be affraid of a transportation system. I WILL try to avoid a group of niggers(white, black, asian, or hispanic) on the street or subway that are obviously up to no good, however. Why? It is stupid to go up to them, unless you are looking for a confrontation, or want to play slap-dick with them, and show your manliness. Be smart.
By the way, "a nigger" is a person with no respect for him or her self. Not necessarily black. It has a racist past, but the meaning of words change though time. Niggers go down easiest, unlike people who respect themselves
I hope this will end your BAD attitude towards the subject. Negative and trying to insult me or something. I will help you. You need help. By the way, i can protect myself from imbecils, i would, however avoid situations where an unnecessary idiotic confrontation to show "macho" is immenent.
If your response contains something about deficatiing in pants, i will not help you on the subject anymore.

"Hopefully the above post was a joke"

It's my assessment of where you're coming from.

"I WILL try to avoid a group of niggers(white, black, asian, or hispanic) on the street or subway that are obviously up to no good, however....By the way, "a nigger" is a person with no respect for him or her self."

That describes you almost perfectly so far, except "ignorant" also comes to mind. Care to dig yourself a deeper hole?

You're 100% correct in your argument regarding some stations, and their appearance. Obviously the NYCTA agrees with you, or they wouldn't encourage people to wait in off-hour waiting areas.

NYCT encourages people to wait within view of station agents or CCTV. I have no objection to this. Prudence is always a good policy.

But it's way down now. It's almost as though the criminal element does not feel welcomed in NYC anymore, and they're moving to the burbs, which has seen huge increases in crime.

But you have to admit, some stations are intimidating, and invite crime.

Yes. A few do.

Not just the subway, by the way. LIRR's Port Washington branch has the Murray Hill station, which is pretty pathetic by LIRR standards.

I remember when a woman was raped at Forest Ave on the M line behind the old staircase exit on the south end of the station.

Some of these stations are just dangerous. Dekalb on the L is another rough station.

Guy, i see this on a regular basis. you don't know where i live, and i don't know where you live. Go out on the city streets. You don't have to go up to them, they will come to you... I am not the one out of touch with reality.

Damn. I see who you are. I will not respond to any of your BS posts until you change your BAD attitude.
My previous posts were an attemt to clarify things for you and help you.
You are getting off at this. Shame. You don't want to learn...Shame.
I can only give you some advice: help yourself, you CAN be good. You CAN be Human. Look up at the sky sometimes, go for a walk.
