I saw an train being detoured at Jay Street onto Sixth Avenue myself. I was rather shocked, as I remember last week the was doing the Eighth Avenue detour.

 

BTW today is a weekday schedule. Maybe the MTA doesn't consider Columbus Day significant enough to alter their schedule.

What's interesting is that there were multiple trains with mechanical problems at two different stations.
