What do you do? 1) Hunts Point-City Hall 2) Pelham Bay park-Middletown Road (Southbound Only) 3) Limited Express Service to Pelham Bay Park skipping all stops discharging at Pelham and doing a local run south bound to middletown then back into the yard 4) send all available MOW equipment to rescue the stalled trains. 5) (Bx4) Provides shuttle service between Whitlock Ave and Westchester Sq 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VWM Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share #54 Posted November 2, 2011 Occupy Wall Street protestors have gone into the Wall Street station and are occupying the uptown track. What do you do? Arrest them for tresspassing. There are signs that say "do not enter the track", right? ---- Moving on... An train jumped the track while entering the 60th Street tunnel, completely obsuring Queens Service. Lexington Av- 63 St is under repairs. There can be no trains in the 63 St connector north of the 57 St Station. Trains are not running north of Bedford-Nostrand due to construction. How do you re- route Service? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VWM Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share #59 Posted November 2, 2011 Try and solve this monstrosity.... Due to heavy winds, service can not cross thier respective bridges. Due to Construction, The Montague Street tunnels are not taking any trains through them. The was re-routed via the from W4 to Jay St because of construction in the Rutgers tubes.. Trains terminate at 2 Av. Because of Station Rehab on the Sea Beach Line from 8 Av to Kings Highway, trains have to use temporary platforms, but only northbound.All local stations on the are being re-done, and only trains can run on the Brighton Line. A signal room fire has made the switches stuck on the pointing toward 137 St yard. A derailment at 207 Stblocks the center and uptown 1 tracks. Essex st on the Nassau St Line is under repair. Chambers St is being renovated. and, An gets stuck at Myrtle Av Station blocking the center and westbound tracks. How do You Re-route service? good luck! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgor Posted November 2, 2011 Share #64 Posted November 2, 2011 Arrest them for tresspassing. There are signs that say "do not enter the track", right? Good luck extracting a couple hundred people from down on the tracks. I'd say send a train up there at full speed and let them all occupy hell, hehe. -- Here's an interesting one: At the 47th-50th Streets station (, the middle two tracks are out of service and trains cannot pass through. How would you reroute trains? Remember that the use the middle downtown track and the use the middle uptown track. Use the track map if you need to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alejr88 Posted November 2, 2011 Share #65 Posted November 2, 2011 I got this: ( trains suspended. Downtown trains are rerouted via 63rd street and arrive at the express track along with the and trains. and trains switch to the local tracks after 42nd Bryant Park. Uptown trains are rerouted via the between West 4 Street and 59 Street Columbus Circle. Uptown trains run express between Canal Street and 59 Street. For local service, transfer to the or trains. Please expect delays on downtown ,, and service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because if it's the... uptown ... via bridge. Broadway Exp. uptown via lower manhattan. Broadway local. same for downtown. specify which track tho, because we cant solve it without info like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
