GreatOne2k Posted August 17, 2009 Share #2 Posted August 17, 2009 would be using one track and running every 30 minutes. They could have had every other go to Dyre instead on 24 minute headways though, or run the on 24 minute headways instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark1447 Posted August 17, 2009 Author Share #5 Posted August 17, 2009 Here we go again. This is exactly what I mean or been stressing about in the to Dyre Ave thread. The is more prone to being out of service in the Bronx compared to the I was only saying for the weekend dude, not permanent. Im guessing the will lay up on M track 180th St and lays ether on Manhattan bound Side or Dyre Avenue Side[i think Dyre Side]. If it ends at M track then that would cause delays on the for a turn around.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Line1291 Posted August 17, 2009 Share #6 Posted August 17, 2009 I know its not permanent, Im saying why not just combine the from Dyre Ave to East 180th and the replacing the south of East 180th into just the running to Dyre Ave for the weekend.

I dunno, im guessing its becuz the Dyre customers will get confused on no (5)s running and (2)s getting in the way with no Lex train, but i get your point how ever. About 2005 or 2006 when the ran normal to Manhattan and no (2)s to E241st St, they had the run witn to Dyre of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Line1291 Posted August 17, 2009 Share #8 Posted August 17, 2009 I was confused as heck when the went to 241st for G.O. on new years eve plus 10 stations down. If I can go through that G.O. then so can Dyre Ave riders w/ a to Eastchester, whats to be confused about on a line w/ 5 stations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pelham Bay Dave Posted August 17, 2009 Share #12 Posted August 17, 2009 Ok here is the deal NO Service between E 180 St and E 241 Street service will terminate on the Middle track at E 180 St. No Service Between E 180 St and Bowling Green. Service will have increased service between Woodlawn and Bowling Green which mean the last stop on some trains will be Bowling Green. Shuttle service Between E 180 St and Dyre Ave will single track the whole way using the Uptown track Only so One track mean ONLY ONE train used for Shuttle service between Dyre and 180 give your self Extra time if you need Dyre Ave service if you got any Alt way use it. Also in Brooklyn service Express only Both way between Atlantic Ave and Franklin Ave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainfan22 Posted August 17, 2009 Share #13 Posted August 17, 2009 The shuttle bus G.O will be nice to fan, last time that portion of the was not running that had RTSs from FLA running on the shuttle bus route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amtrak7 Posted August 17, 2009 Share #14 Posted August 17, 2009 tthey are working on both tracks putting in new signals and pulling cables. so its power off. Is this the end of the last of old-IRT signalling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trainmaster5 Posted August 18, 2009 Share #15 Posted August 18, 2009 Is this the end of the last of old-IRT signalling? I sure hope so. The inner workings of some of the Dyre signals come from old WPR and 3rd Ave signals I was told. AFAIK the Dyre line isn't even visible to the new control center now so maybe it's about time to connect it to the grid. And, finally have a standardized signal system everywhere in the subways.

Pelham Bay Dave Posted August 18, 2009 Share #16 Posted August 18, 2009 I like the old signals and will miss them to me its always been more clear cut. The RCC can not see the North of 149 St / 3 AV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westside Posted August 18, 2009 Share #21 Posted August 18, 2009 the shuttle buses run better that regular weekend 5 service. they are working on both tracks putting in new signals and pulling cables. so its power off. Another purpose of this GO is to cut the rails on track 2 exiting Bronx Park East (2 line) for the installation of a switch to M track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelham Bay Dave Posted August 18, 2009 Share #22 Posted August 18, 2009 You going to see lots of changes where trains run Express from 149 3 av to E 180 but most of the work its Between E 180 St and Bronx Park East / Dyre Ave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
