125th Street:










116th Street:


110th Street:



I don't think posting all the stations to 59th Street because they might all look the same.

A little bonus: Fully handmade signs, when I don't find any real textures:

Oh I never knew someone already made it. Thank you! Well, should I consider it as released?

EDIT: The route needs some modifications anyways, need to add station signs and more details especially for 9th Avenue Station. I'll work on it when I'll be on the F route.

Why not work on the 1970s LL as well?

Because I don't know how to build routes at the moment, and the current L route is not that realistic (straight switches, curves). Sure I can try to fix the route and try to make something good of it, but I'll have to think about it, the only route I will build is the Culver Shuttle since it is an easy and short line. That will train me for making the Jamaica Avenue, Rockaway Park and Nassau St to Coney Island via tunnel extensions in the future, and maybe the L train if I will not be able to fix the current one, unless a better version of the route come out in the future. Remember I'm just basing myself of the original released routes, all I do is retexture the objects and editing the routes

I gotta post updates for trains i'm doing How do I add pictures?

Go on imgur.com, make a new post and select your picture, once it's loaded, click the little arrow on the top right corner on your picture, then select "Copy link" and then a window will open with 4 links, copy the BBCode or whatever it is called one for the forums, and then paste the link in your thread. There you go.

I added this in the post with the download links, but I'll put it here as well

IMPORTANT!

For people who have little issues with the routes,
You should put the "1972JM" and "1972KK" folders in the Object folder.
you should put the "1970s Jamaica & Nassau St Routes" folder and not just the content of it in the route folder.
You should put the "1972JAMAICA" folder and not just the content of it in the Sound folder.
I'm sure there are people out there who put all single routes and sound folders ("QJ" or "KK" for example) in the directory and same for the announcements, and are experiencing some issues with the routes.

MP89, that excludes you, but make sure to check what I just stated above, maybe that's one of the reasons why the routes aren't working, along with what I told you in the PM I just sent you.

Nice work.  One question:  Where can I get the train sets for these routes.  I know That I can run any train set in Open BVE, but I wanted to run them as they were meant to be run.  Thanks

Go on the download page, and look for the R16 train (Olive or Silver & Blue paint scheme), the R30 (same paint scheme as the R16), the pre GOH R32, the R38 (includes both post GOH and pre GOH versions), the pre GOH R44 (which should include the 1972 version if I remember) and the pre GOH R46 as well.
If you are wondering what means "pre GOH", it means "before genaral overhaul program" that occurred in the late 1980s, in which the TA has rebuilt their trains that some of them still run today: the R32, the R42 and the R46 for example. Other old trains are either preserved or were scrapped.
Don't use the R44 or the R46 on the Nassau St Routes, because 75ft long cars can't run on them, well they can in the game but if you want to run them as they were meant to run, don't use them, save them for the A line lol

Yep all the routes are working it's weird

Hmmm the least I can suggest is to put a copy of the DS Store file in my routes folders. But I'm not sure at all if they'll work. Because I saw this file so many times and they are almost always in objects, routes, and sounds folders, but I don't know what this file is for and never asked myself this question but maybe that's the cause.
Otherwise I don't have any ideas at the moment.

Hey, good luck with the routes. Anyway, have you managed to get through to William about the pre GOH trains?

Thank you!. And not yet, I'll try later cause I've been busy on the A and sick at the same time this weekend but I'll try my best because we really need a lot of pre GOH trains with the upcoming routes I'm making.

Yeah very strange because I can run all the NYCT routes and .exe but not this

Are the original J M & Z lines working with you, these particular ones? If yes, then that's really weird, I have honestly no idea what caused the 70s Nassau St Lines to not work on Mac, I based myself on the original routes and all I did was editing them, change textures and objects. So I can't find a way to fix this unfornatunately.

I like the work on the 1970s Nassau and 8th Avenue Subway BMT and IND Routes. I hope to operate the IND 8th Avenue one soon BD! 

Thank you! I will work as fast as possible! I can't wait to operate on the A, AA, HH and especially the CC from Bedford Pk to the Rockaways myself  ^^, I'm so excited!

And note that the A will have different scenarios as well, these are the ones I intend to do:

-1970: A (207th Street - Far Rockaway) Middays or Weekends, 8 Ave Express & Fulton St local
           A (207th Street - Lefferts Blvd) Rush Hours 8 Ave, Express & Fulton Street local

-1973: A (207th Street - Far Rockaway) Middays or Weekends, 8 Ave Express & Fulton St local
           A (207th Street - Far Rockaway) Rush Hours, 8 Ave Express & Fulton St Express (the one I'm currently working)

-1977: A (207th Street - Far Rockaway) Late nights, 8 Ave Local & Fulton St Local

Very nice! Looking forward to more progress!

Thank you, I hope as well!

Really good job. I love how the sounds are almost completely different from trains like the R32 and R30 and even he bogies have been remade. Good job, hope to see more preGOH trains in development soon. By the way, Why didn't you post this on the main BVEstation page?

Because apparently the website is running low on resources and no one is uploading on the main page anymore.

Sadly it doesn’t works on Mac ☹️

Really? Does the original J,M, Z routes work on it at least? Or are you saying that the A will not work on Mac?

UPDATE!

An unexpected small update for the Nassau St Routes that:
-Fix some missing announcements (not all of them because there are some I really couldn't fix).
-Fix speed limits for those who want to ride the AI and experienced near/derailments at some curves & switches.
-Adds a new fictional scenario: 1976 JFK Express: Eastern Parkway - 57th Street.
That will be the last update before the extension to 168th Street after I finish all the 70s routes I'm planning!
