MTR Admiralty Posted August 4, 2009 Share #2 Posted August 4, 2009 Interesting plan, but swine flu shouldn't affect anyone's plan unless people are literally dying on the streets. You don't see that happening any time (yet). You have an explanation for the title? I don't see how this ties with the East River. And finally, I'm not quite sure about the "new Metrocard system" you are talking about. And I'm pretty sure other members here are going to be questioning this. You can't transfer from the D to the N at Dekalb. Neither train stops there (except late nights). The station in Brooklyn at which you could do it before entering Manhattan is Pacific Street. Here are some tips: -Get off the at Smith 9th and go to the last car position for a photo op, the view is remarkable. Plus you will get a good view of the work being done on the viaduct as you go down the platform. -Take the to Ditmas Avenue (last car position) for a photo op, then continue -Take the from Coney Island to 62nd Street (it's a pretty fun ride) -Transfer to the at 62nd Street/New Utrecht, there are photo ops on the platform -Take the to 9th Avenue, there are photo ops in the last car position and the first car position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan Railer Posted August 4, 2009 Share #4 Posted August 4, 2009 1. Yeah, agreed with swine flu thing. 2. The new MetroCard Prices shall I say. 3. Alright, I feel I got a goodn'smooth plan going on here, thanks for the help and input Henry. Realigned Plan: We will be covering the , , , and Lines. {Start of Trip} Meet at Court Square - 1st Car (10:30AM) Take to Smith - 9th Street (photo op). and transfer to . Take (pit-stop at Ditmas for photo op) to Coney Island - Stillwell Ave. and transfer to . Take to 62nd St. and Transfer to (photo op). Take (pit-stop at 9th Ave. for photo op) Atlantic-Pacific and Transfer to . [Lunch at 36th Street McDonalds or at Atlantic-Pacfic Mall - Trying to avoid crowd at Coney Island] Take to 42nd Street and transfer to . [Optional Alt.: Take to Astoria - Ditmars and back to Queensboro Plaza for ] Take to 74th-Broadway and transfer to . Take to 34th Street. {End of Trip} i'm in on this one with one condition: i need an approximate end time due to the fact that i'm already in the city for a dentist appointment, so i will need to move it from the morning to the late afternoon. and i might bring a friend if he wants to come. and if there is time afterwords, i might head uptown to check out 207th for new cars if anyone's interested. (hopefully no GO's). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTR Admiralty Posted August 5, 2009 Share #5 Posted August 5, 2009 I think you should try setting it to a weekday, GOs mess things up sometimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R32 3348 Posted August 5, 2009 Share #7 Posted August 5, 2009 I think it's fine that it's on a weekend. The only thing you MUST do is check the weekend service advisories for each line you want to railfan and keep in mind that the headways will be low - in the 10 minute range. I also think that we shouldn't make the photo-ops set in stone or anything, because those tend to change while we all railfan anyway (depending on who wants to stop where).

Fan Railer Posted August 5, 2009 Share #8 Posted August 5, 2009 ill join just gotta know what time it starts. be at court square first car (downtown) at 10:30. i'll see if i can get there a bit earlier (maybe 10 min or so), but i think we could wait another 10-15 minutes for stragglers if there are any. as of now, not sure if it's a weekday or if we'll risk the GO's on the weekend. i remember last weekends GO cut out northbound on the sea beach and reroute to west end.

IMO, if you are going to railfan on a weekend, railfan if there is an interesting reroute (say the to Coney or something) otherwise, do it on a weekday when trains are more frequent. That way you can save time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
