Riding the to school most days of the week.... the R46's are nice, but I wouldn't mind seeing something else, like R32s. That's why I'm anticipating the G.O. where the runs express in one direction. But my schoolmates who take the from Queens over to the ( and probably won't be happy, since both would run local.
Also, weekday mornings around 7:10-ish, I've seen a Brooklyn-bound train coming from the track and entering service at 96th St. They're layed up on the express track between 103rd St and 110th St. It's a nice idea. But I think the MTA might as well start those trains from 137th St to serve some passengers. But like I said, it's a start
And it seems like different train operators gun at different speeds. For example, one T/O and just likes to speed through Rogers Junction while most don't. Another one likes to swing thorugh the curve after Nevins St, and some just seem to lag.
But service in the afternoon can be so erratic. Ugh.
