  1. Speaking of X trips, I really do think they should try their hand with a 119X. That trip down to Bayonne can be brutal even outside the rush hour, I can only imagine how much worse it gets during rush hours. Plus I do think there's ridership to support such a service Way I would do it is basically all stops south of Sip Avenue along JFK Boulevard, then express to/from Manhattan (no JSQ). That could mean take Tonnelle Avenue to NJ-495 between New York and Jersey City. Given that they already have short-turns to/from JFK Boulevard & 61st Street that shouldn't be too much of an issue (especially since inbound buses are pick-up only). Perhaps it can start off as a weekday rush hour type of thing, and then expand as necessary.
  2. 10B/10C service will be eliminated on April 28th. That is the same day that the microtransit zone is going to begin. https://sctbus.org/SCT-On-Demand SMH at all this microtransit craze going on that have all these transit agencies going f**king stupid with it. I can maybe get East Hampton (10B area) as a microtransit zone (and don't have issue with the Southampton one which replaced the 10A), but gutting East Hampton to Montauk fixed-route service? That trip takes quite some time to do (to get to someone either traveling within Montauk, or between East Hampton and Montauk). The round trip will add up, there should have been a fixed route between those two points. Complete joke and disappointing. On a sidenote, I can only imagine the nonsense that will will come out whenever the final Westchester redesign plan comes through which is arguably worse in scale than with Suffolk.
  3. Part Suspended There are no trains between 96 St and 57 St-7 Av while we conduct an investigation at Lexington Av/63 St. Expect delays in both directions. Service Changes: The last stop on northbound trains is Lexington Av/59 St. The last stop on northbound trains is 57 St-7 Av. Travel Alternatives: For service to/from Lexington Av/63 St, take an train to/from 34 St-Herald Sq. As an alternative to/from stations between 96 St and 72 St, take a train to nearby stations along Lexington Av. Planned work reminder: This weekend, service operates in two sections: 1. Shuttle train between Ditmars Blvd and 39 Av-Dutch Kills. 2. Between Coney Island and 57 St-7 Av, and via the to/from 96 St. Posted: 04/07/2024 12:20 AM
  4. Interesting.... Reroute Southbound trains are running with delays while we address a signal malfunction at Atlantic Av-Barclays Ctr. Some southbound trains will run via the line from Atlantic Av-Barclays Ctr to Atlantic Av-Barclays Ctr then express to Franklin Av-Medgar Evers College. Listen for announcements to hear how your train will run. Posted: 04/04/2024 05:03 PM
  5. For some reason this linked to the B82 timetable, you can see the BxM10 timetable here.
  6. After a relatively long hiatus, I am back with the list of route and schedule changes this week. Simply put, I just don't have the same time like I used to, and making these lists can take time, usual several days if there are enough changes to the departure times. I actually was not planning to do one this time around, but some route and stop changes caught my eye earlier today (technically yesterday) at this point. Thankfully while there were multiple new timetables issued, many of them were just the MTA dicking around with the formatting for whatever reason. Some new timetables are also the first under the new format. So it did not take me relatively long to compile everything together. Also Staten Island had zero changes so that was great. While most of the changes went into effect on Sunday, some others are from either earlier in the year or from last year, which have been noted. The comparisons and the changes seen below for virtually all the routes were done based on the current issue timetable vs. the issued timetable in February 2023.

  8. I also remember just before the covid lockdowns, the was extended to 168th Street, but it was to replace the train for some reason that's blanking on me at this point. What I do know is that it was the circumstances of that particular G.O. which led to that service pattern. This was also when the was regularly going to 96th on weekends. Either way, getting the involved in something that has nothing to do with it is unwarranted. Even if the operate every 10 or so minutes on weekends, that means that Astoria riders would be seeing less service than what's proposed under the G.O., if you split up the route to two terminals. That's not to prioritize Astoria riders over everyone else, it's just that there's a lot going on simultaneously. Given everything else that's going on, the 15 minute headway is the least bad scenario.

The last stop on northbound trains is 167 St. Emergency services are responding to a person who was struck by a train at 183 St. Travel Alternatives: Transfer at 161 St-Yankee Stadium to a train for service between Manhattan and the Bronx.
