    Subway - What If?

    in New York City Subway

    Posted

     

    NEXT:

    Because of a police investigation the UPTOWN platform at Chambers Street (1)(2)(3) is closed off and trains cannot pass through (downtown side is fine). How would you reroute the trains?

    I would probably just send the (1)(2)(3) up through the downtown side, even with the delays.

    The (D) gets canceled.

    Accedeintly typed Broad Channel instead of Rockaway Park olol

    Little off-topic, and how about this?

    61st St-Woodside Station collasped on LIRR Woodside Station.

     

    (7)<7> Signed as (S) runs between TQ and Queensboro

    All LIRR City Terminal Zone trains that go through Woodside are re-routed through Hunterspoint OR Atlantic Terminal.

    (E) Rerouted from WTC to Ozone Park Lefferts Blvd Running local.

    (C) Extended from Euclid Ave to Rockaway Park

    (S) Suspended

    <A> Suspended

    Extra (Q7) Service

    Tickets to Zone 1 are now $2 cheaper

    (7) Runs at half of its current headway and runs between Flushing and 74th St, setting up extended platforms so that 74th can be acsessed.

    Add 1 extra car to all Queens Blvd and trains that stop at Atlantic Ave, and have it so that there trains pull up a half car up, so that all cars can be acsessed.

    Port Washington branch trains run only to Mets-Witles Point.:cool:

    Forogt to add things regarding the (6) and BxMn7

     

    NEXT

     

    28 St is impassable on the 1/2/3 line. Challenge: For each train per hour you leave in two sections, provide an equal number of extra trains per hour on a nearby line. Make sure passengers can easily transfer between the two lines somewhere. PS Avoid 2 via Lex as the East Side is over capacity as it is.

     

    (1) No service between 34th st & 14th St

    (2) Via Lex Ave LOCAL

    (3) No service between 42nd St & Chambers St

    (6) To Phelam Bay ALL TIMES

    <6> Suspended

    (A) Extra Service

    (S) Extra Service

    BxMn7 Service runs local down Westchester Ave during rush hours.

    Unplanned Subway Service Changes

    I also saw an (R) going to Whitehall. Not sure if the other ones were because I took that one. And this morning there was a (5) that kept switching back between 7th ave & Lexington Ave. I looked on the express track and there was another (5) so that might be why. Don't know which one it took tough because I couldn't risk it and took the (4) that was right behind it.

    Hey, here's one for everyone

     

    59th St Columbus Circle & 42nd St Times Square are destroyed. No trains can stop or pass through. How do you re-route service? Also Remember that you CAN use Shuttle Bus service, but there are only so many extra buses.

    In the original plans the (Q) was supposed to be extended up to 125 st along 2nd ave. Now that the (Q) was extended to Astoria... What now? Are they just abandoning the idea all together? Because it seems lie a very good idea to have two trains under 2nd ave, especially one going down 7th, so people won't have to transfer.
