No, that's payware. R33WF probably had it from before when it was being offered.
@Bhorton: That gap wasn't intentional, it has since been fixed. PM me for CDP links.
@Scott: Your update, as requested, is evidenced in the map below. I will be posting pictures over the weekend. @Fooly: We'll have to postpone the start of the route build-off until Saturday, as I'm probably pulling a 12-13 hour shift at work tomorrow.
Also, February 28 Progress Map. (6)<6> creeping into the Bronx, slowly but surely. (1) 240 St yard is complete, except bumpers and signals. After the Pelham line, I'll head back to Brooklyn, do the (3) Livonia Yard, then the Westchester Yard, and then....the final leg of the route, the Flushing/Corona (7)<7>!!!

I have the subway bullets font, so I can change them at will (color included). Since it's only two stations long right now, I decided to go with a purple (S). When I extend the line into Queens and get a significant portion done, subsequent maps will delete the purple (S) and reinstate the (7).

What is this website? I have the track plans from Peter Dougherty's book. I'd love to see the link though.

Development Update (2 March 2013):
I will be updating the Subway stations to fix the gap problem (Bhorton and Susanaes, I did receive your PMs), and also to address the issue of them not being compatible with the multi-platform versions of the AJS Invisible Stations. Only the 1T invisible station fits, as it's only 3.5 meters wide. The 2, 4, 6 and 8 track versions were 4m wide, which were too big for the NYCTA platforms--this caused a huge PITA, as for a four-track island station, instead of using the 4T model, I had to use four separate one-track invisible stations, which needless to say, sucks. I've exported out 80% of the newly extended platforms, and will be adding attachment points tonight and tomorrow. These will be ready for release by Wednesday. I know that seems like a long ways off, but I wanted to give myself enough time to remedy the problem, extensively test and correct errors, and fit in my full time job.
@Fooly: We will have to postpone our (A) route building contest for now.

Thanks for that. The tentative 2 Av track plan might be a bit out-dated, bc the streets don't match up with the (Q)(T) map, lol. And I think the most recent track layouts are in Peter Dougherty's book. And, last I heard the (B)(D) and (T) will not share any station configuration, but thanks for this! This is really cool! I will definitely add these little gems to my ever-growing document collection. The Javits extension picture is a steal as well!
Regarding your question, Terminal pieces are still on hold for now, as I am working on the subway stations at the moment. They will retain the same KUIDs as previous versions, so all you have to do is install the .CDP and it will overwrite what you already have. The only change will be the naming which will now be "NYCTA Substation ___", since they're subway. Silly how I overlooked that. I am working on revamping my elevated stations and such. I know BStyles is kicking ass and making ones that are wayyyyyy better than the ones I have already released, but I figured, why not update mine as well. These will follow the same end piece-spline set up as the subway stations, so they can be passenger enabled. I'm also updating my Brighton stuff from the old mega-route (long overdue IMO), and retexturing the Custom Station kit, and including end-walls to the kit (the ones with the Do Not Enter signs on them). I'm also due to release an elevated custom station kit in the future as well, so I'll be pretty busy. I'll squeeze in Terminal pieces in there when time permits.

Max,
I'm hosting a party for a friend's 21st on Friday night, so let's agree to start it on Saturday--I also work doubles on Friday, so when I get home, I won't be in a route-building mood. But you're on!
