The simplest fix really seems to be adding a second flyover from the middle track at 180th Street to Morris park on the The problem is i remember back in 2011 i think it was all the trackwork was rearranged so i doubt the will want to tear up new tracks there again. And having lived near the WPR line all my life on Simpson Street it really does seem to be about ridership. The will pull into 180th street either full or 3/4s full and if a pulls in at the same time coming southbound the transfer will fill the And as some people have mentioned here most people between East Tremont and Jackson Avenue are heades for the west side, you dont see many hop off at 3rd avenue or Grand Concourse and the same can be said on the return trip. If the and were to switch roles in the bronx not even terminals but just express and local, you would have a bad crowding situation at 3rd avenue and 149th-GC because you would have the people from the west farms transfering to the lexington line and vice versa unless you completely take it to a next level and switch the lines completely.

But that would cause confusion to some passengers, i'd rather still have separate services. Thats the same question people asked when the was temporarily brought back for rockaway after sandy, the would just be a substitute and i'm sure the R160s still have the announcements and GO announcements. The other thing i can think of is send the through Coney Island Via Brighton and terminate at Prospect Park.

Ok lets start by getting the easy ones first Runs Via the to 47th Street & Trains Terminate at QueensBoro Plaza Trains Terminate at 57th Street (if they can't terminate there because its to close to sink hole then they terminate at 34th Street, and then make some complicated relay movements to return south) Trains replace the in Brooklyn runs Via Montague Takes over the in Brooklyn running from Coney Island to 57th Via Bridge Trains Run from Coney Island to W. 4th Street Trains run from Brighton to W. 4th Street If anybody can take the is more than welcome as i'm not familiar with their line all that well.

But then to maintain frequent service on the Line you would have to throw the to Euclid, The also would have to run either Local or express one way to/from Carnarsie. Or the could be suspended whole and have the Cover the on central park west and the below 59th Street. There's alot of possibilities by throwing the into Manhattan Via the Line.

Well thats tragic because we all know and so do they that the second avenue line was being constructed to alleviate the Lexington Line and provide service when the 2nd & 3rd Avenue ELs where torn down. They should make more than just a couple of bellmouths, they should at least make a provision up to the river, it would save time and money if and when they decide to extend into the bronx. This whole phase idea for me is bullcrap on the side, they should halt construction on the East Side Access and concentrate all efforts on the SAS. Right now at the moment the SAS should be priority because that Lexington Line is struggling to keep up. They say "oh we'll just add more trains" but thats not the solution. Make the line, make provisions to extend the line and think about entering the bronx to alleviate the buses on 3rd Avenue. 3rd Avenue is the same as Lexington Avenue Line except with buses, they should concentrate on what matters and what is important. Harold interlocking can wait, bringing new haven trains into Penn Station can wait, Bringing LIRR trains into Grand Central can wait. Its all about the SAS, its a miracle these construction efforts have not stopped like in the 70s and 40s. I swear the MTA has to get their priorities straight. Sorry but ive been holding a grudge with the MTA for quite a while now.

No Service Between Broadway Junction and 8th Avenue Manhattan Trains terminate at 14th Street-8th Avenue on the 8th Avenue line runs via Nassau Street & 8th Avenue. Switching onto the Jamaica Line at Broadway junction and making all stops to Delancey-Essex. Switches onto the 6th Avenue line via . Switches onto 8th Avenue at W. 4th Street. Terminates at 14th Street-8th Avenue on express tracks and relays below 34th to make the return trip. Shuttle buses replace the between Broadway Junction and 8th Avenue along normal route. YES THIS CAN BE DONE

Flooding shuts down the 60th Street tunnels for the 63rd Street Tunnels 53rd Street Tunnels So the above lines cannot enter manhattan or enter queens Reroute/Suspend

Northbound run on the southbound track between Hunterspoint and QueensBoro Plaza, after Queensboro plaza Northbound trains switch over onto the NB local track. Select NB trains run express, Southbound trains run with delays. Select SB trains terminate at Queensboro Plaza and head back north.

Easy one Water main bursts at 96th street flooding the 96th Street Station.

Are there going to be provisions on the Second Ave Line for storage tracks? Like maybe a couple here and there. Because where's the fleet supposed to go if they are not constructing a yard under ground attached to it.

So once the R179s come will they be assigned to a specific line, or be prepped to work on any line. Better yet will they start on one line and then intermix with the rest of the B-Division fleet? Like will we one day see R179s on the or other line.

random question/ thought popped into my head, has a museum train ever been involved in a 12-9

Bronx River connecting the Lines from 180th street to with stops at 180th Street 177th Street 174th Street 172nd Street-Boynton Avenue Elder Avenue Westchester Avenue Simpson Street There would be an elevated wye connection at boynton and westchester, with elder being double level, a grade junction before the bronx river viaduct with the breaking off the and running parallel to the until whitlock and westchester aves. The Line would go straight up westchester until the double level Simpson Street station with a 2 way junction at simpson.
