Hello again everyone. Sorry for making this thread feel like a Train Operator convo. But I just got my letter 2 days ago to begin my MotorMan process with the MTA. I have to report Wednesday at 730am. I have made up my mind to go with this route until I hear something from TBTA. The training here is 9 months so it'll keep me occupied in the meantime. Hopefully with my 2 wrong, I'll have a GREAT list number when they finally release the eligable list.

Good luck everyone and stay focused. I will be checking in from time to time.

so tell me since you've seen the facility, was it nice? Lolol
hey maybe the dream is a sign that your gonna get called

Yeah hopefully. The facility (just the physical exam) looked more like a high school gym. The way it was set up was pretty cool.

the training for to is about 9
months . The tricky part is resigning from transit while in training to take the medical and pat and bi for bto. If you don't pass the bto for whatever reason you can't come back to transit as a to

t/o training is 6-1/2 to 7-1/2 months long in the a division (numbered trains) and 9 months for the b division (lettered trains)

I still remember someone on here said that in the test room a guy next to him had a vip or some club wrist band on. Guess he found himself a lady, went to the hotel after the club, got busy, leaves the hotel going straight to test site.

I was talking to a captain correction who took the test and he said a lot of people looked too trashy and some smelled like bud lol. I kinda looked like a drug dealer that day too with a 3xl north face coat lol we'll see what happens

I dont think I can take another leave of absence. Seeing that I will already be taking one to go to T/O in the first place. I really wanna do BTO cause I can retire sooner. Both are GREAT jobs. I just wish the list for TBTA would come out already so I could gauge it a little better.

When you become a train operator it's considered a promotion so you are not taking a leave of absence from BO . When they call you for bto you would return to BO then take a leave of absence to go to BTO

[REDBIRD1031]

exactly! Can't come back as t/o cause i would have left before my probationary period was up. I am a bus operator now actually. 4 years now and im sick of it.

dont know if this helps but youll like t/o much better than bus operator . You really dont have to deal with the passengers if you dont want to.. And plenty of ot.. The trick is trying to stay awake while operating, the signals in the dark tunnels can be hypnotizing ..its def cool gig..
