i heard astoria might be getting cbtc very soon though

when i said years i meant only 6

The Southern portion of the Myrtle Avenue Line if rebuilt could be connected to the at Myrtle/Willoughby

is it just the side being affected or is the side getting renovated as well (probably not considering the has only run on those tracks for years compared to the running on those tracks for almost 35.

I read a proposal on r/nycrail that would make the the BMT version of the . sent to Astoria, to QBL, eliminated (again) unaffected I'm pretty sure it said the would remain express at all times, so the would be the only Broadway Local service. Most deinterlining plans have the run to 96th with the , and the to Astoria. While I'm still here it seems like the will have R68's until they eventually fall apart.

If 63rd is being reconstructed, would that mean the runs via 53rd like it used to, and if it does what happens to the ?

I don't live in New York anymore, but I'm pretty sure traffic is still awful late nights. I also heard proposals to send the back to the Forest Hills on nights and weekends because I heard the is HORRIBLE. I'd like to add that why haven't they killed off the yet? Just sign those up as trains

according to the manhattan bus map the M15 also runs on 1st Ave, but idk, the M15 might be here to stay, especially at the rate construction is going because the MTA's favorite thing to do to stations is overbuild them. Also I hope they don't rename the platform, they most likely won't, and please I don't want to hear more Jessica erasure.

Wait are the finally now just starting shuttle buses to make for lost service at the closed stations? What were Culver riders doing these past few weekends? Did they use other services like the or just walked? I would say the but it doesn't run on weekends. On a side note, there was an R160 on the today, it was a rerouted via Sea Beach because of a sick passenger I believe, but it was signed up as an to avoid confusion. Another thing about the is when will it be express on late nights again, its been running local along with the since about March I believe because of CBTC upgrades. There's a reason they started with completely deinterlined lines like the and

Honestly I'm glad the is going to Fordham Plaza even though it is wild but it should work. In general, this is WAY better than the original plan (with al the QT's & QMT's)

Hello, randomnewyorker23 here. I haven't posted because my computer wasn't plugged in for a couple months, but I'm back!

Also they really should've used a letter closer to F (G is out of the question for obvious reasons, maybe H?)

The is the best option if we were to reintroduce a letter into the system. The H is used internally for the Rockaway Park Shuttle I is too similar to the number 1 so it is not used (Unless you use the two lines that are at the ends of the I in several fonts (Helvetica & Akzidenz-Grotesk not being either of those) O is for a similar reason to I, but it's with 0 instead of 1. P has been used for several proposed routes that never wore T is already earmarked for the 2nd Avenue Subway U sounds too similar to the word "you." V was a line but it got cut and chances of it being used as a subway line is very very slim. X is preserved for R32 rollsigns but it's never used Y sounds similar to the word "why." (Also why did they use / as the new 2001 services, I mean W is fine but the jump from F all the way to V was weird.)

trains are now using the left over R160's from the // lines (Well the had to get revenge somehow because it had R46's for years.

I swear to god Kawasaki if these R211's start acting up-

Also one more thing. If were going to bring back the , it's last stop can't be Broad St or Bay Parkway.

Idk but the rockaway park should be renamed to externally on maps and rollsigns period point blank. The is a subway line everyone wants back but knows good and well it likely won't, then again the is nearly a loop and something should be done with it. IF we restore the , it's last stop cannot be 2 Av. We can't easily restore service like we did with the . Plus it's slots are already filled by & trains, so there's almost no point. The is never coming back. They've already removed all programs from the R142/A. The is ambiguous, I have like several different ideas if the MTA were to reintroduce said letter back into the system.

The swoops up the remaining passengers who didnt board the /

Sorry about that. Send me a link to the already existing post and lock this one.

So as most of you may know, this coming weekend and last weekend the filled in for the between Bergen Street and Coney Island, while the went to Euclid Avenue via the line. (if this discussion already exists you can gladly lock this post

What are your thoughts on the R211's Here's mine for those wondering: I think its perfect, its great for the disabled and its fresh new design, I'm also glad it's a fresh new design because I'm getting quite tired of the R143/R160/R179 design. It's downsides is I don't like how the announcements are like the R179. They use the / announcements for every line I believe. Let me know your thoughts and opinions on this train model.

Since my other post of eliminating a line did quite well, which service would you decide to bring back.

Change of plans: The express (a diamond <J> bullet would have been useful right about now) will be extended from Myrtle to Jamaica, my past proposal was inconvenient.

local service still as is.

With most people on this, I would eliminate the , and make a express service between possibly Myrtle and Broadway Junction.
