Ok.

 

This is not new. This has been the currrent set up since the 1st generation of announcements since Jessica Ettinger took over. This is how you can tell what train came from Flatbush Av or New Lots or Utica. There are 2 versions of the announcemens of announcements in the Bronx, actually 3 but anyways.

 

(5)s from New Lots Av and Crown Hts upon entering the Bronx say "This is a Eastchester-Dyre Av bound Train"

(5)s from Flatbush AV say "This is a Eastchester Bound Local Train"

 

3rd Version is for all (5)s thats run express in the Bronx "This is a Eastchester Bound Express Train" Or "This is a Neried Av bound Express Train"

 

Now for downtown.

 

(5)s going to Bowling Green say "This is a Manhattan Bound Train"

 

(5)s going to Utica/New Lots/Flatbush All say "This is a Manhattan Bound Local/Express Train"

 

You also have:

 

this is a East 180th St bound 5 Local/express

this is a 149th st-GC bound 5 train

this is a Grand central bound 5 express train

this is a Neried Av bound 5 Local train

 

There are alot more.

Thats wrong.. It can come from any part of Brooklyn.. It says it ONLY during Rush hrs to Dyre Avenue:

 

This is a Eastchester-Dyre Av bound Local Train

 

This is an an Eastchester Bound Local Train*

 

*Used during Non-RH hours in the Bronx. And I live on the Line in the Bronx. Hear it everyday!

 

Also OP, if you know transit then you should know this is OLD news! This has been like this since last yr..

trains are local to Eastchester in rush hours, you mean the AM hours right? I didn't know she said "an" twice.

Sorry I added An extra by mistake.

 

As for the . The Goes to Eastchester(Dyre Ave) at all times and to 238th/Nereid Avenue(WPR) peak direction Rush hour. (AM To Manhattan /PM From Manhattan)

 

And Are Express to Dyre/238th During Rush Hour peak:

3rd Version is for all (5)s thats run express in the Bronx "This is a Eastchester Bound Express Train" Or "This is a Neried Av bound Express Train"

 

Now for downtown.

 

(5)s going to Bowling Green say "This is a Manhattan Bound Train"

 

(5)s going to Utica/New Lots/Flatbush All say "This is a Manhattan Bound Local/Express Train"

 

You also have:

 

this is a East 180th St bound 5 Local/express

this is a 149th st-GC bound 5 train

this is a Grand central bound 5 express train

this is a Neried Av bound 5 Local train

 

There are alot more.

 

I think S/B to New Lots says "This is a Manhattan Bound 5 Train" like the Dyre-Bowling Green announcement

 

S/B from 241 St (not Dyre) will say "This is a Manhattan Bound Local Train" even to Bowling Green/Brooklyn Bridge/Grand Central

"This is a Eastchester-Dyre Av bound Local Train" is now heard during middays as well since the now comes from Brooklyn

 

 

"This is an Eastchester bound train" is another variant, heard late nights on the N/B (shuttle) and at all times at Baychester Avenue
