  1. 42Nd st Shuttle Runs on (7) line, to Astoria, making all stops, with eleven cars.

     

    If you want to run that, you would need staff on the platform to help people over the gap, and trains would have to wait awhile for people to board.

    Plus, won't the BMT-IRT switch get worked out from continous switching after barely being used since the 1950's?

  2. NEXT

    Because of a structural failure, the express tracks at 34 St - Herald Sq are impassable. In addition, the local tracks can only accommodate 15 tph (per track).

     

    Disregarding tph,(I haven't got a clue what that's all about, know what it stands for) here's my way:

    (A) remain normal

    (B) suspended

    (C) remain normal

    (D) rerouted via 8th avenue

    (E) normal

    (F) normal

    (M) normal

    (N) additional service to help out Astoria and the (Q)

    (Q) terminates at Atlantic Avenue, alternate trips end at Prospect Park unused shuttle track (move the layup out) due to wrong railing in the tunnel, take the (R) or next (Q) to continue your trip

    (R) additional service to help out the (Q), alternate trips run over the Manhattan Bridge.

  3. C'mon, I was just joking. Back on topic before we start grammar school on this thread.

     

    The entire Brighton Corridor from Prospect Park to DeKalb avenue is unusable. However, trains may stop at DeKalb or Prospect, but cannot travel within the corridor. How would you reroute the (B)(Q)?

    Use shuttle buses as a last resort.

  4.  

    The express tracks on the 8th Avenue/CPW line inside 59th Street-Columbus Circle station can't be used due to a rail condition.

     

    (A) local from 59-72nd

    (B) get outta the way, suspended

    (C) same as above

    (D) local from 59-145th

  5. Since you didn't, i'll propose a new scenario:

     

    Due to construction of a new underground passageway from Barclay's Center to Atlantic Terminal, the (B /(Q) station & the (2)/(3)(4)/(5) local tracks are closed. Pacific Street is unaffected. All Atlantic Terminal LIRR trains have been rerouted to LIC. Just reroute subway lines.

     

    Remember:

    4 Avenue can't handle 5 lines.

    The IRT Brooklyn Express tracks can't handle 4 lines.

     

    B Division:

    Q runs in 2 sections:

    1-CI to PP

    2-Astoria to 57th St

    B-suspended

    A Division:

    2-Goes through the express tracks

    3-Turns at TSQ-42 St

    4-Extended to New Lots Av

    5-Shuttle from Dyre to E 180th
