This is big:no 8th ave (E) trains and the (G) is (probably just temporarily) extended back to it's rightful home. Anyone know what they're doing to the downtown 53rd st track?

I saw a poster that said that the (V) will also operate over the 63rd St line, since it still runs after 10PM till 12PM or 1AM(Heading to QNS)

 

But its a Late Night One, 10:30PM(Or 10PM) to 5AM. Ill get a pic of that when i head to 14th st next time

The Full lenth (G) will be running all the way untill 10/02/09. They was doing Chip out track work right at the South end of 23rd st. Ecpect the (G) to run some weekends as well tose the end of this time frame, while the pour the road bed back.

 

This also sould include the Weeknight but I might be wrong since the E will still be running Nouth bound the right way thought 23st.

I think it will since late night riders will need the (G) to get to QP southbound

It appears that this big G.O has been retracted. Go to the link in the first post, it isn't there anymore.

 

However, these are still in effect:

 

Manhattan-bound (E) local Roosevelt-36 St

Manhattan-bound (F) local Roosevelt-Queensbridge

Queens-bound (E)(G)(R) express Queens Plz-Continental

 

(G) on QB is suspended 8PM Friday through 5AM Sunday. Will run the whole day Sunday as the express.

Better than no (G) at all...but four trains running express??? Will the line handle so many trains even on weekends?

They just moved it to be weeknights instead of weekends (with no (G) at all). Why did they change it all of a sudden? it'd make sense to leave the (G) during weeknights. stupid (MTA)
