A lot of washouts at 23rd Street, I see.

1. trains run in two sections:

i) Ditmars Blvd to 34th Street.

ii) 34th Street (6th Avenue) to Coney Island. *

2. trains run in two sections:

i) Forest Hills to 57th Street-7th Avenue.

ii) 34th Street (6th Avenue) to Bay Ridge. *

3. trains run from Forest Hills, run local in Queens, and on the 6th Avenue line to Brighton Beach via Brighton Express. *

4. train is suspended.

5. trains run in two sections:

i) 205th Street to 2nd Avenue (local) via 8th Avenue line.

ii) Whitehall Street to Coney Island via West End. *

6. trains run from Metropolitan Avenue to Coney Island via Brighton Local.

*No service on Broadway line from 34th Street to Whitehall Street.

The X switch on the tracks right north of Jay Street have malfunctioned and no trains may pass through those tracks. The other switches in that area and the outer tracks ( train) are unaffected.

 

NO FOAMING. If you say remove a train from the transit museum, and deposit tons of people in the middle of an open museum from this, I will get high on LSD and eat your face until the cops shoot me dead.

 

That's a toughie.

1. Run the between 205th Street and Chambers Street.

2. Run the between Utica Avenue and Leffers and the Rockaways.

3. Extend the to Euclid.

4. Service suspended between Chambers Street and Utica Avenue. For some service to Brooklyn, take the .

In any case, the thing with the documents is that sometimes the answers are so simple that you overthink them. I remember on one of the practice Regents, they showed a map of the U.S. during the civil war, showing the states that seceeded first (the Deep South, like South Carolina and Georgia), and then the states that seceeded later (the Upper South, like Virginia), and then the border states. Then they asked "What was one problem faced by Lincoln during his presidency?", and I'm sitting there trying to think of the answer, and then I check the answer key, and it just says "the problem was that Union was divided" or something like that. I was thinking "That's it????????", so sometimes it comes down to overthinking it.

 

That's the primary reason as to why Lincoln lead us into the war. It was preservation of the Union, because otherwise democracy would have been a big failure.

Notice the train in the beginning:

Good luck with this one!

Disputed charges at Whole Foods... Always taken care of... B)

Wait, you bribed the cashier?

Why are the R42s being mentioned? What's the reasoning behind moving them?

The songs from the film Brazil:

My man....now why would you expect blue if they were clearly for the New Haven line....

 

Imagine green ones for the Hudson line.

Meant for the to run express in Manhattan all times except late nights if there is no service.

As for the going to Brooklyn full time, well, I'm not sure what and how the demand is for an extra line on 4th Avenue or the West End.

What about keeping things simple?:

Rush Hours and Midday:

Astoria - Coney Island via Sea Beach, Broadway Express, via Bridge, 4 Av. Express

96 St. - Coney Island via Brighton, Broadway Express, via Bridge, Brighton Local

71 Av. - 95 Street, Broadway Local, via Whitehall, 4 Av. Local

Astoria - Bay Pkwy Rush Hour/9 Av. Midday, via West End, Broadway Local, via Whitehall, 4 Av. Local

Evenings and Late Nights:

Astoria - Coney Island via Sea Beach, Broadway Local, via Bridge, 4 Av. Express

96 St. - Coney Island via Brighton, Broadway Express, via Bridge, Brighton Local

71 Av. Evenings/36 St. Late Nights - 95 Street, Broadway Local, via Whitehall, 4 Av. Local

Astoria - Whitehall St. (perhaps Canal St.) Evenings, Broadway Local, via Whitehall(No service after 12:00)

Weekend:

Astoria - Coney Island via Sea Beach, Broadway Local, via Bridge, 4 Av. Express

96 St. - Coney Island via Brighton, Broadway Express, via Bridge, Brighton Local

71 Av. - 95 Street, Broadway Local, via Whitehall, 4 Av. Local

Astoria - 9 Av. via West End, Broadway Local, via Whitehall, 4 Av. Local

Ok, ok, I know this is going way out there, and there are hundreds of reasons why it should be shot down, but how about, in order to not have to deal with the NIMBYs that block Astoria, and LGA, it goes through Rikers?

 

That'd turn the Astoria line into the most dangerous subway line, even if it didn't stop there. Someone in the prison would find a way down there. Maybe some one does a Dufresne with the pipes.

WAIT WAIT WAIT.

 

Pre-existing tunnels?

 

The City started building segments in the 1970s, when they were building the subway. That's why many people believe Phase II will be the easiest to build, since there are already tunnels there.

They can do what they did with the and in Queens: Shut down one direction at a time, so that at least people can get the trains the other direction.

I've never seen an R38 , especially at 179th Street.

Most of the media don't even know what the (C ) line uses, rather then saying R32, they are sayingt he (C ) line cars

 

It's a pet peeve of mine. And besides, when summer comes, the general public will probably think it's the R32 or R46.

Interesting. For a line with no parallel line, it seems it is going to be one direction at a time.

The contract doesn't specify. However, it says that a 10 car train will be tested. So if its ten cars, it'd most likely be two 5 car sets. And if they were to replace the R42s that run on the , then those would most likely be 4 car sets.

This is the link to the contract:

http://www.mta.info/..._March_2012.pdf

In short:

R179

 

300 B-Division cars

These 300 cars, according to the contract, will be used to replace the R32 and R42 units.

The 10 test cars are scheduled to be delivered 31 months after the Notice of Award (NOA).

Delivery of the cars will commence 38 months after NOA.

Delivery of the cars will be complete 56 months after NOA.

 

It seems that they will be both 4 car and 5 car sets that will run on the Eastern Division lines and on the Eight Avenue Local.

Funny you bring up that part of the Lex, the other day I just realized the (4)/(5) take the same amount of time to travel from 125th to Grand Central as Metro North (10 minutes).

 

Mind = Blown.

Maybe it's because Metro-North trains have to switch many across many tracks.
