  • As part of the Subway Action Plan, our 215 St Signal Shop is working hard to repair and maintain our signal components, many of them over 50 years old. #MTA #SubwayActionPlan

    Thanks for the behind the scenes of the signal shop, MTA! : )

    It seems as though the Communications Based Train Control (CBTC) system will be the solution to the problem of having old signals and equipment. I hope Fast Forward will succeed.

    I hope Fast Forward goes well. Good luck, and I can't wait to see how well things go!

      Dezlite Can’t wait as well. I’ll also have the City Tech Computer Engineering Technology professors ready if they get slow.

    Always love those fresnel lenses against those old black signals, such character!

    Hi, my name is Trevor, I was born and raised in New York City, from The Bronx. I was never an employee with the transit authority, but I almost know how the light signals works on the subway trains. I always been fascinated with the signaling of the lights of the signals where a train will go by one of the blocks where it turns it to red as it's going through that particular signal or block. I even know how it works where you can see a split of the track where once the wheels goes over that particular split that's where the signal lights gets tripped to a different signal otherwise known as red signal, I also notice when the train is clear it will have a yellow Bracket I really don't know the name of it, or what you call it, but it pops up every time the train clear's that particular block or signal, so I'm guessing it's the emergency breaker, it will stop the train if a train is going too fast tripping that signal. I noticed something new, and I would like to know more about this new system of the traffic light system of the green flashing light on the signals is this part of the new CBTC system? I have also have seen this flashing green lights signal in Atlanta, Georgia. Is this where did you get the idea of the green flashing lights from? I moved to Atlanta in 89 and I lived there for 30 years and I've also been fascinated with the trains in Atlanta as well as the transit system called Marta.

    Hey, I noticed something new when it comes to the green signals on the trains and on the signal lights. I noticed they started flashing green now when did you start doing that, and what's the outcome of the system where you have green flashing lights now. Otherwise, doesn't it make anything better, and more efficient, than a standard green light?

    I'd like "fast forward" to apply to actual train speeds! Please get rid of unnecessary speed timers, the local rains should not be zooming past express trains.

      Plus you have constantly malfunctioning speed grades, which require trains to slow down since the e-brake is even worse!

      Timers were removed from the 7 since they are now running the trains in automatic mode. The CBTC controls the speed. Through the S.P.E.E.D. program, speed limits were increased throughout the system and timers were inspected and recalibrated if necessary.
