DX Local Train Posted June 29, 2009 Share #1 Posted June 29, 2009 I believe that the Should Once Again Bring back the but instead of having the and it should just be the and (8)... The Has A Middle Track Along Jerome Av Right Well Its Should be used More Often...I think the (8) should be a Lexington Av Local And Bronx Local. And the (4)/<4> A Bronx Express.... the and (8) Should Both Stop in woodlawn North Bound (8)To Flatbush South Bound and during rush hours to New Lots Av Scince The Goes to Flatbush Rush Hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2Julio Posted June 29, 2009 Share #2 Posted June 29, 2009 um, why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1447 Posted June 29, 2009 Share #3 Posted June 29, 2009 Not bad Maybe the (8) Can Run from Woodlawn to Brroklyn Bridge via Jerome/Lex Local . Although that can be a problem for PM hrs when the Pelham Exp is running which would limit the time between route. But id doubt the is gonna wanna do anything like that. They Just gonna keep the Jerome Local and Jerome Expres. Besides Who knows if there is gonna be a Diamond like the .. But could happen.. Im wondering if there is going to be PM Express Service on the Jerome line too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zman Posted June 29, 2009 Share #14 Posted June 29, 2009 I have no idea where you all got your information from, but wherever you got it from, put it back. The TA designations are: FS - Franklin Av GS - 42nd St H - Rockaway Park (this one was listed correctly in a prior post) The 8 and 0 are not used at all.

LRG Posted June 29, 2009 Share #15 Posted June 29, 2009 Here's a quick giveaway: normally, a service on a timetable is listed as http://mta.info/nyct/service/pdf/t5cur.pdf, with the "5" between "t" and "cur" representing the timetable service. This would go for any other routes; the 1, L, 7, etc. But the 42nd Street Shuttle uses "0" now (http://mta.info/nyct/service/pdf/t0cur.pdf). Why I don't know. The Rockaway Park Shuttle uses "H" and the Franklin Avenue Shuttle uses "S", though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric B Posted June 30, 2009 Share #23 Posted June 30, 2009 The 8 on the R62 signs was supposeldy designated for the , and it was probably 10 or 14 that was designated for some sort of 4 special (maybe to Flatbush). But they're not going with double numbers now, and the digital signs on the 142's won't fit them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
