DOB2RTO Posted December 28, 2009 Share #2 Posted December 28, 2009 Why not btwn. Dyckman and 242? The N/B , stops at 215st, dumps, discharges, make sure customers are off, go to middle track N of 215st, T/O changes ends, goes back into 215st on S/B side, and goes back south. 251st is a place where trains can be turned. I was 1 of 2 crews who was suppose to do that job yesterday, but it got canceled. So I sat for awhile, then did 1 trip for a T/O, who was late getting to work...........

NX Express Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share #4 Posted December 29, 2009 Well, if it were to run between Dyckman and 242nd - Van Cortlandt, then there is no Marine Traffic, just problems at 191st, 181st or 168th Sts or elsewhere The train runs to 215th St. because that is where the stops before entering the Broadway Bridge (a drawbridge*or like reference*). If it were to run as you said, then it'll be useless to use a Marine Traffic 'Excuse'. A better 'Excuse' will be saying 'Track Work between Dyckman and 168th St.'... Why not btwn. Dyckman and 242? I meant not run btwn. even 215 and 242. Instead, trains are magically supposed to cross the bridge and terminate at 225. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EE Broadway Local Posted December 29, 2009 Share #5 Posted December 29, 2009 Unfortunately, trains can't and so 215th Street becomes a temporary terminal when marine traffic occurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R32 3348 Posted December 30, 2009 Share #8 Posted December 30, 2009 I haven't been up the line lately but I'm assuming that there is space to relay a train north of 215th St. before the bridge. The bridge is closer to the 225th St. side anyway considering the 225th St. station is right after the bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NX Express Posted December 30, 2009 Author Share #9 Posted December 30, 2009 Well, EE Broadway Local is correct, the trains can't cross to Marble Hill & the Bronx when the Bridge is opened... I know. The issue is that the made a typo, AGAIN:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
