NX Express Posted January 30, 2010 Share #2 Posted January 30, 2010 Probably they forgot to reset the rollsigns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R62A 1991 Posted January 30, 2010 Share #4 Posted January 30, 2010 At 4:45, they're still putting in trains from ENY to go to Broad St, according to the schedule. That's the only reason I'd see a train around that time going to Broad St. They send all trains that are put-ins from ENY that run in revenue service from Broadway Junction to Broad St as trains usually during the PM rush. Correct me if I'm wrong. If they still put-in at 4:45, then that's why you saw two trains going to Manhattan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bknightshadow45 Posted January 30, 2010 Share #5 Posted January 30, 2010 Manhattan Bound trains does run during the PM Rush. Manhattan bound trains run all local stops from Broadway Junction to Broad St then it goes to Jamaica Center for Skip Stop service. Those trains are put ins from the Yard and it is listed on the timetables. In the timetables it is listed as trains but they are actually trains.

LRG Posted January 30, 2010 Share #6 Posted January 30, 2010 Bknightshadow hit it perfectly. While on the timetables it says that the train doesn't run to Manhattan during the evening rush, the trains get put in at Broadway Junction because those are the trains which will begin their uptown run at Broad.

S78 via Hylan Posted January 30, 2010 Share #7 Posted January 30, 2010 Yep, they explained it well. The same thing happens in the morning when are put-ins a BJ to go to Jamaica Center and run their skip-stop pattern to Broad St. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have 5 (Z)ebra Put-ins out of ENY on the Pm Mon thur Fri.. Some of them may leave from Chuancey Street and some may leave from Bway Junction depends on where in the yard they are, they all make local stops to Broad then they run Express from Marcy to Myrtle then from Myrtle Ave the Skip Stop operation is in effect. Frist (Z)ebra train can leave from Bway Junction or Chuancey @ 1616 hrs... Frist (Z)ebra Skip Stop train leave Broad @ 1655 hrs.. On and BTW you have two Posters here who do this three times a week can anybody guess who they are? You have a hint right in this thread...
