    to Jamaica-179, either to 121 or 111...

    A FIND would only be useful if trains get rerouted, and I wouldn't expect a train in passenger service on the to be diverted onto Broadway/Astoria. If a station is closed, the dot for it is simply disabled...

    Because it would either require replacing all the motors in every unit, or would create maintenance hell in Corona Yard, with 2 sets of spare parts, one for MITRAC, other for the other system. It wouldn't be worth it.

    It makes a station look much more pleasant, instead of fluorescent tubes everywhere combined with dark colours and columns everywhere. It's what makes a lot of stations look unpleasant.

    The 63rd Street line probably is one of the best examples of good transit planning too. It cost about 1.5 billion dollars, and that's fairly cheap for a tunnel that does this much.

    suspended between Myrtle and Rockaway Parkway. between Myrtle and Broadway Junction, shuttle buses between Broadway Junction and Rockaway Parkway.

    The problem is, when does a subway car look bad? The mileage/days not washed is a much more consistent way to make sure trains are clean.

    And would allow the choice of what CBTC system will be installed eventually all over the system. (or at least most of a division)

    And while we're at it, turn DeKalb Avenue into a full-blown express station... Does the junction west of DeKalb Avenue need any improvements?

    Very... imaginative! suspended between 86 St and Bowling Green via 7th Avenue suspended between 86 St and Brooklyn Bridge

    The Cranberry Street tunnel wouldn't like a combination of the , and , splitting the isn't possible ever since Court Street became a museum, and there isn't any good turnback point for trains in Brooklyn.

    Hard one. via 7th Avenue would obviously overload it, so; additional service, some trains run express on WPR suspended between 86 St and Borough Hall, with some trains from the north terminating at 125 St running between Dyre and E180 suspended between Grand Central and Brooklyn Bridge additional service

    suspended between Grand Central and Utica Av/New Lots Av via 7th Avenue susended between Grand Central and Brooklyn Bridge running local in Brooklyn running between 205 and West 4th St running between 168 and WTC via Broadway Express to 57th St via the Cranberry Street Tunnel running to Broad Street

    If south of 3 Av-138 on the means that trains can be reversed just after 3 Av-138, then suspended between 86 St and 3 Av-138. Otherwise suspended between 86 St and Hunts Point Avenue. In the latter case, a shuttle is running between Hunts Point Avenue and 3 Av-138. suspended between 149-Grand Concourse and 86 St, via 7 Av.

    Suspended Suspended between Jay St and Ditmas Avenue, running express on 6 Av Suspended running to Broad Street

    Indeed, because you can't assume everyone wants to go to the East Side...

    Logically speaking, people don't go from 148 St all the way to New Lots. also, having it as a shuttle between 148 and 135 causes conflicting movements at 135.
  18. Drag0nflamez
    Doesn't terminating the at 2nd Avenue cause less conflicting movements?
  19. Drag0nflamez
    Is there any reason why the doesn't have platforms at DeKalb Avenue?
  20. Drag0nflamez
    Because it would have too much of an environmental impact, it's not as cheap as in other countries, because in London, even a smaller diameter tunnel (the Jubilee line, for instance), cost 3.5 billion pounds, so basically, unless you want to kill off all health & safety laws, destroy the unions etc etc etc it can't be done cheaper.

    Shut down the entire system (except maybe the Grand Central shuttle which wouldn't have any raison d'être at that point, would only inconvenience) and replace it with buses until the switches have been fixed; capacity of the subway would be too low. Now for something more sensible; the 60th St Tunnel and the 53rd St Tunnel both go down. Reroute the
