If you're under 16, can you get a ticket for hopping the turnstile?

I though there were several existing subway stations along Church Avenue. Though if you send the via along Church Avenue the cost would be extremely high. You would have to tunnel your way across. Why do that when an existing line that has room for extra tracks that can be rebuilt for subway use just exist a mile away.
Well this is only fictional...

That's the thing. People would board existing subway lines, and ride down there to transfer to the . It helps a bit everyday by allowing people to transfer.
Not for the folks who who live on or near Church Av.

Though if the you give the current this alignment it would work. Plus a section of existing railroad the LIRR Bay Ridge Branch is down here. The Bay Ridge Branch can carry a total of 6 tracks. They removed 4 tracks over the years so they only have 2 tracks for current operations. You could have 2 tracks certified for subway usage, and send the down this line taking the load off all the buses, because a train can carry more people then a bus. Plus the cars are usually short. An 8 car train would not just take people off the B35 it would reduce crowding on all buses.
If the were to run down the Bay Ridge branch, it certainly wouldn't help take the load off the B35. The Bay Ridge branch is a little more than a mile from Church Av.

Won't a crosstown Brooklyn Line with the current work better then a .
This shuttle would take a major load off the B35 and would reduce heavy traffic along Church Av. Just getting from Coney Island Av to Flatbush Av on the B35 takes 12-15 minutes during evening rush hour! It should only take 5-7 minutes!

You should eliminate either East 18th Street or Flatbush Avenue because Flatbush Avenue is too close to East 18th Street.
I would prefer eliminate Flatbush Avenue so East 18 Street has transfers with the trains.
Also, there is a transfer on the at Nostrand Avenue, not Flatbush Avenue, but I don't blame you.
Thanks for the correction. I made a mistake.
As for Flatbush and E. 18th, their both valubale transfer points even thou both stations would be pretty close to one another. I just can't imagine having a shuttle run down Church Av and pass such a major avenue.

BMT El
via McDonald Av & Church Av
5 car R160 set
This route will utilize the Culver El from Av X until Ditmas Av. It will then branch off the el, continue north until it hits Church Av and will then make its way down Church Av, terminating at Kings Hwy (for those of you who don't know, Kings Hwy does intersect with Church Av). Trains will be based out of the CI yard via the switch at Av X.
Stops in order from south terminal:
Av X B4 B1
Av U B3
Kings Hwy B82
18th Av B8
Ditmas Av
Church Av - McDonald Av B67 B35
Coney Island Av B68 B35
E. 18th St B35
Flatbush Av B41 B35
Nostrand Av B44 B35
Utica Av B46 B35
Kings Hwy B7 B35
Here's a map showing a portion of the line from McDonald - Church Av to Kings Hwy (I don't have Photoshop so bear with me) *Note: I forgot to put the station symbol for Utica Av.

Aren't platforms on the too short for trains?
51 x 11 = 561 IRT
60 x 8 = 480 BMT

wow...I just found out that my mom used to go out with one of John Gotti's cousins back in the 90's. She said she didn't know who he really was until her proffesor warned her.
