Here we see 7 trains running on the IRT Flushing Line in Queens, battling their way through an intense blizzard. Heavy snow, high winds, and temperatures in the teens were no match for the skill and acumen of the talented people who run NYC's subway trains. Enjoy!

@RynardMooreVstar1 2 года назад

Man, this brings back memories of my days in NYC and riding the subway when it snowed. In particular, I remember those sparking 3rd rails -- and how those sparks would sometimes rain down on you when the trains were on the elevated sections of the system. Finally, remembering seeing a New Lots Ave bound no. 2 train slide about almost two cars past the 225th street station in the BX because the ice was so bad. Man those were the days.

I am very impressed how you moved at 5.57 to get a perfect view down the centre of the platform. Superb attention to detail. And the view also shows very clearly the difference between the bow sided cars on the former BMT/IND lines and the flat sided cars on the former IRT lines. I am English and live in London. I have visited New York only once and that was many years ago when my wife and I stayed with my one of my wife's relatives in the Bronx on line 4, our local station being Burnside Avenue.

FYI, driving in snow is pretty scary and hard, especially for us operators, and even though the event of a major storm and operating through one is very slim, it’s still a possibility and operators should be respected for. (I’ve only done it once, so my experience isn’t high, lol)

@leeroberts1192 2 года назад

The NYC has the advantage of the trains picking up the power from the underside of the conductor rail. Here in the UK generally where a conductor rail is used the train picks up from the top of the rail. Once I heard of a train where the pickups were arcing so much they become welded to the conductor rail!

@luislaplume8261 2 года назад

You made a mistake. In NYC my old hometown all subway trains have a third rail shoe between the wheels that slides above the 3rd rail that is now covered by an aluminum board above the rail. It is electrified with 600 volts of DC current. The Market Frankford subway line in Philadelphia has an upsidedown 3rd rail where the 3rd rail shoe slides underneath the rail. It is also charged at 600 volts of DC current.

@leeroberts1192 2 года назад

@@luislaplume8261 Having the board above the rail would explain why it looks as if it were using an under rail contact. It must still cut right down on problems with ice and snow build-up on the 3rd rail. Most passenger lines in the south and south east of England use a 3rd rail 750V DC (max speed 100mph). I believe the longest route is at least 120 miles long. I don't know if any routes in the UK hold any records for the longest 3rd rail powered route in the world

@kkparis 2 года назад

@@leeroberts1192 Not the subway, but Metro North Railroad here does have a upside down third rail system. And one of their fleet Kawasaki M8 actually equips both AC OHLE and a third rail shoe that can switch between over running and under running. I’m always impressed how National Rail runs trains @ 100mph over third rail. The commuter rail here only gets up to 80mph.

@leeroberts1192 2 года назад

@@kkparis Being able to switch between 3rd rail and OLE isn't unsual here in the UK. A couple of routes where it happens that I can think of are the North London Line and Thameslink. There's a new train being trialled which is " tri-mode" (3rd rail, OLE, diesel). There was also a trial in recent years of battery powered trains, think it was OLE with the option of switching to battery power
