Now I see how people can get frustrated reading these. Ok let's analyze and i'll be as nice as possible (Y) - how many T/Os would actually want to do that run? What about the which basically already does this sort of run but is extended to Jamaica as well? What kind of delays can the experienced T/Os see by relaying trains to and from the EXP track from 71st Ave. (U) - let's see we basically have the that goes to Astoria and terminates at Stillwell already not to mention the that already provides pretty good local service along with the ( as its express. Might as well just extend the into Astoria if the MTA would even consider this. - ok want to see the chaos this will cause at Rector St as the already provides this service as a local? What are we going to do with that? the only thing good about this is the staying as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zman Posted July 4, 2009 Share #3 Posted July 4, 2009 -Broadway LCL: stay as is This is the only one I like. Oh by the way Blkfire, if you got to implement your ideas, how would you PAY for them? Where would the money come from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UlmerPark B6 Posted July 4, 2009 Share #4 Posted July 4, 2009 I don't see the point in this plan, I mean it would be easier for riders, and it might relieve stress off of the and during Rush Hours, and right now, by transferring it's only a 1-7 minute wait to transfer, and if it runs, it will clog up the lines, like 4th Avenue, and Broadway, so I don't see the point.

blkfire765 Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share #5 Posted July 4, 2009 all great points on NOT doing it or even considering it... but how about offering suggestions on how to fix it up or where the (Y) and (U) trains should run. i mean it's just a sugestion...

There are letters already on the signs which are not used and if any new service was needed it would be better to use them first. Also, the MTA has a whole department who's job it is to figure out service plans and they have implemented services that the majority of people want.
