  1. I wanna do wallyhorses:

    The Q and N work as round robin shuttles terminating at dekalb and switching and going onto the other side (Brighton to sea beach vice versa)

    B is suspended

    D runs to Atlantic ave Barclays where diesel engines wait to take the train across to grand

    G suspended

    F runs via G from ci with every 4th train terminating at york ave

    R suspended in Brooklyn

    E train runs via G terminating at church ave

    No N/Q in Queens

    R runs through QBL switches ends at the edge of the tunnel where the N/R merge and runs back to Astoria

    M runs local then via F to Roosevelt Island

    C trains suspended in bklyn

    A trains run local with every 3rd running express to Jay st

    A trains run in upper Manhattan (I'm assuming this is not affected) from columbus cir to its usual terminal

    C trains run to Norwood via CPW local

    Extra J/M service in bklyn for connecting passengers from g line

    Z all day to meet capacity needs

    Lirr cross honors fares

    Shuttles from, Barclays, Queens Plaza, Jay, 59th st (to downtown)

    All fares free

  3. You know what I think, I think the (J) should be extended to Brighton and be local and for a one seat ride to lower Manhattan/ downtown brooklyn

    Edit: My plan in detail some J trains stored in ci yard, during the highest ridership point in the morning 12 J trains running 5 minutes apart on the local would deadhead to Brighton. They would have to enter service there on the local track without waiting for more than a minute. Then they would run local up until dekalb where they would switch to the montague line then they would take the existing path as the m used to take only till Jamaica instead of the m terminal. They would run in regular service up until 4 where they would start in Jamaica and go to Brighton. In order for this to happen some q trains would have to start at whitehall or prospect park

  4. The ideal situation is to have the it would be best if all the trains in the outer boroughs ran to a central location like Atlantic Barclays (Or to court) in that case to stop delays and have shuttles between there and Manhattan

  5. Well b/o's aren't upper management so I wouldn't trust them when it comes to stuff as new routes or new limiteds, as much as I want this I cant believe this until there is a schedule of some sort

  6.  

    I thought the 2 AV line above 63rd wouldn't be complete at least for another few year. What stations do they have done on the 2 Ave Line or at least the progress?

    I thought the plan was to give the (A) those R179's so they only run out of 207th Piktin and ENY. Then the R46's will go to the (F) and bump some R160's to Coney Island.

     

     

    The (Q) will apparently need 4 extra trains for this extension hence the 40 cars in 5 car sets. The R179 order (Production units) is supposed to be delivered from Summer 2015 to sometime in 2017 with the last cars arriving just in time for the opening of Phase 1. The (A) can't get any since most of them, 260 out of 300 cars, will be in 4 car sets. This plan changed sometime 2012-ish. And with Queens Blvd being the corridor it is, mixed with the loading issues of the 75 foot cars, the (F) getting more R46s back, not counting the Montague closure, is not ideal. There will be just enough to get rid of the R42s on the (J) (which I bet will go before the R32s) and the R32s on the (C).

    Wait so the R179 will be on the (Q)?

  7. Why are they putting chains on the buses so early? I thought that you shouldn't be using chains on dry pavement...

    I think it's because if it starts snowing earlier and the bus doesn't have a chance to go to the depot to get chained up, the bus is prepared

  8.  

    I am aware that people who own and carry guns can be anywhere, and at anytime. What's your point?

     

     

     

    You pulled a VG8 in the matter of generalizing, talking down and stereotyping a neighborhood, which was f**ked up.

    Speak of the devil I was wondering if he got banned cause we haven't heard from him and his Riverdale business in a while
