    Cool video. Some captions for this and other videos would help everyone enjoy it, too.

    How can a chemical engineer, turn AV engineer, turn IT engineer get involved in this type of work? :P but really, this looks like a fun gig! I love NYC trains - a true engineering marvel.

      You have to know people. No one gets a nice cushy job like this at the NYC MTA without knowing someone.

      The NYC subway doesn't have any approach-lit signals.

    Off peak as in Midday, I remember one time my 3 train was going super slow along the 7th Avenue line thanks to this car. The 1 was even faster.

    I saw it heading from the 6 line to the 7 line to inspect the track cause 3 trains derailed one due to a broken switch and another one over shot at a Hudson yards while the train behind it was caused by operator error he drove past a red signal and wasn't able to stop in time

    Seems like it shouldn't be too difficult or expensive to add sensors to every single train to check track geometry continuously?
