That’s not called a “battery run.”

What’s a battery run

My  this morning went express from Alabama to Jamaica Center , only stopping at Crescent , Woodhaven and Sutphin Blvd , has that ever happened before ?

I thought I had seen something about reverse peak trains being added as well, and that in the AM, they were later, like around 10 or something. I guess that wouldn't be to benefit riders, so probably for some operational benefit or something (I know that area feels like such a long winding rollercoaster, and always thought express would be nice; too bad they now can't find a suitable local replacement so that all (F)'s could go express).

Anyone else heard about something like this? I forgot where I saw it, whether here or on some FB group or elsewhere).

I think it was the testing of the express runs where they ran the trains reverse peak

They should have not only cameras, but also security as well, in every station and every subway car (including the cabs). This way, crimes throughout the entire subway system are vastly reduced. It also lets them see everywhere the trains go too. This way, they can keep track of their on-time performances, crowding levels on platforms and trains, and irregularity of trains. It also prevents the T/Os from using the punch boxes just to let each tower know what train they’re operating. It’s still up to them to route you correctly, however. It also helps to prevent C/Rs from answering passengers’ questions and thus delaying their assigned train.

you dragged it

To make sure that the train is working properly before entering service. It is a safety hazard to put a brand new train in service without being tested first.

right , f**k around and the doors randomly open while the train is packed and moving

MTA's method of waiting until the last minute to add or fix an AAS program is completely unprofessional. Remember the via Broadway G.O and none of the trains were signed up correctly because the program didnt exist yet? Or when the started going to 96th St and the announcements were glitched and kept saying "This is a Queens bound local train."? Does the agency not have a team to ensure that glitches like these are worked on BEFORE the actual G.O starts? 

That’s the same thing the  announcement says when it heads uptown to 145th

I could make some service changes:

 :

All Times 96 St/2 Av to Coney Island. Normal Weekdays Express in Manhattan and Brooklyn from 57 St/7 Av to 59 St. Weekends Express in Manhattan and Brooklyn.            Overnights all Local via Tunnel and 4 Av.

 :

Astoria Ditmars Blvd to Coney Island All Times.         

Normal Weekday Express after 34 St to Canal St and over Bridge stop at DeKalb Av Brighton Line local.  Weekends local in Manhattan from 57 St/7 Av until Prince St, then stop at Canal St and over Bridge and stop at DeKalb Av. Overnights local in Manhattan until Prince St, then stop at Canal St and over Bridge stop at DeKalb Av and Brighton Line.

 :

service remain the same however more trains would operate to and from 86 St/Gravesend.

 : 

service remain the same.

why not make it all the way express to 57th

I don't use a local stop so I don't have to deal with this but have wondered whether people using 67th Avenue do this.

I definitely have a couple times especially on weekends when the  isn’t running on QBL

That was one of the quickest switch fixes ever. By 9:05 PM, service resumed in both directions.

Isn’t this the 3rd time you asked this

The does NOT go to the local track, it goes to what is the "express" track (at DeKalb the outermost track) as the inner "local" tracks are only accessible from the tunnel.  With that in mind:

is truncated to West 4th Street with select trains southbound ending at and starting back northbound from 34th Street.

 and  are unaffected by this.

 and temporarily swap line routes in Brooklyn with the operating via Brighton and the via Sea Beach.  also operates via the tunnel while the skips DeKalb. 

If capacity permits, the and are extended to Brighton Beach (running express Prospect Park-Brighton Beach) to replace service in Brooklyn, operating via Montague. 

I doubt  would do that

you also be overdoing it as well just like be, by extending from Astoria to Euclid Avenue.

that’s not a bad idea and that’s still within the current subway limits , you be tryna have trains go from the middle of Long Island to Washington Heights

My B Division Proposal is this, i don't know why many of you are against this proposal but it would benefits commuters from Deserted Areas like Eastern Queens, Flatbush, Staten Island and etc.

 

it’s because you be overdoing it

It is "What if", I'm not saying it should built. if it should built then we should make George Washington Bridge like Manhattan Bridge.

I didn’t say you said that , I was just asking how , as in how would they do it

What if the is built and extended to Pataerson, NJ?

how

At most of the NYC subway entrances and exits there are green and red lamps. I know that green means a 24/7 entrance and booth, red means either a part-time booth or no booth, hence either exit-only or entrance with MetroCard. Is it right?

yeah
