  1. It depends on the issue whether they can divert all trains to run local or run express and that Saturday night incident, they couldn't send anything through because the switch issue blocked off both tracks (Southbound). And if this happened during the weekday Rush Hours or Middays, I can tell you it would've been much worse.
  2. Once again Do Not Take whatever someone puts on Wiki as accurate sources.
  3. You are incorrect about the . The started running local during the overnights beginning in the 1980s. The was cut to 125th Street until around 1999 when they decided to extend the late night back to Brooklyn Bridge but kept the local.
  4. So? Just because it didn't show up on SubwayTime doesn't mean it was suspended. I've seen it happen many times where lines hasn't shown up in SubwayTime making it look there's a huge delay or suspension when there's a huge incident when in fact trains are running either appearing later part on the SubwayTime app or not appearing at all. You can't just rely on SubwayTime with these stuff.
  5. The wasn't suspended. For whatever reason, those NB trips didn't appear on SubwayTime until Hoyt-Schermerhorn Street during the incident.
  6. To Whitehall Street next weekend. SIGNAL IMPROVEMENTS | 9:45 PM Fri, Jul 20 to 5 AM Mon, Jul 23 Trains run via the in both directions between 21 St-Queensbridge, Queens and Lexington Av/63 St, Manhattan and via the between 57 St-7 Av and Whitehall St, the last stop and trains are providing alternate service No service at Queens Plaza, Court Sq-23 St, Lexington Av/53 St, 5 Av/53 St, 7 Av, 50 St, 42 St/Port Authority, 34 St-Penn Station, 23, 14, W 4, Spring, Canal Sts and World Trade Center.

After 10:30 PM, Jamaica-bound trains run via the after 47-50 Sts, Manhattan to Roosevelt Av, Queens.
  7. Thats really insane and too far right there. I mean its one thing to do it for railfanning purposes but taking that gamble while going to work is really crazy especially since you got there an hour late.
  8. There has been work done in the Rutgers Street Tube during the 6th Avenue Weekend Shutdown G.Os but nowhere its finished but at least there has been work going on.
  9. Not only that but now the first southbound Train leaves Astoria-Ditmars Blvd at 6:13 AM instead of 6:57 AM. And the Train ends a little later now then the previous picks.
  10. The and Train G.Os are separate ones. The Train one is for the overnights from that Tuesday until that Friday while the Train one is for the weekend. Both are for different types of work.
  11. That actually would've been a better idea because turning the At Canal Street would've also effected the and train as well and not just the Train especially if the Train is behind the Train discharging and/or the or Train is behind the Train thats being held causing a conga line.
  12. Interesting upcoming G.Os for the IRT.

  13. Only northbound they can. Southbound there's no switch until south of 145.
  14. You know I don't believe you because if that was the case, you would've said that in your first response and not until after I posted the link that ended proving there was work originally scheduled for the 17th as well as saying there was no work planned for the 17th.
  15. Nope you're wrong. It was originally for last Thursday May 17th. Here's the ORIGINAL date in this link which proves it https://twitter.com/NYCTSubway/status/996740621275721728 And in this follow up it exactly says Link to source https://twitter.com/NYCTSubway/status/996886448547778563
  16. The Train didn't get suspended at all actually.
  17. It wasn't really a last minute decision. It was originally supposed to be last Thursday but due to the inclement weather rainstorm, they proposed it which was even on their twitter when it was first posted last week.
  18. They actually had to turn off the power there so it wouldn't have been able to turn at 167.
  19. I meant to post this Tuesday but R68 2900-2903 (The set that derailed on the Train) is back in service after being OOS for almost 3 years.
  20. Thats incorrect. 12 minutes is how long it would take if running local. Express takes about 8-9 minutes.
  21. They've done a G.O on that actually a few times back in 1998-2001 but then again it was due to no Train service running G.O
  22. It was actually . I have the actual email and it says some Trains not Trains. Idk why he put in there.
  23. You forgot to include the overnight G.O having southbound Trains running via 6th Avenue this upcoming week.
