Grand Concourse Posted February 7, 2010 Share #51 Posted February 7, 2010 Which direction and what time? I have never had a problem at that station. If anything it's 34th St. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse Posted February 7, 2010 Share #53 Posted February 7, 2010 Nope, never had to wait there longer than at any other stop. Only 34th when the N switches to the express. That's probably the only wait along the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7LineFan Posted February 7, 2010 Share #54 Posted February 7, 2010 I don't care about free or what-not transfers, at least if the tracks are connected within 1/2 mile of the area, I won't need any arguements, at least that is how I say it and it's my way and opinion... It's not an opinion. It's a fact. Those are three distinct stations that do not share a single fare control and have no direct physical (straphanger/pedestrian) connection to each other whatsoever. Therefore, they do not comprise a station complex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

w8Hou Posted February 7, 2010 Share #57 Posted February 7, 2010 I do not care about people traffic, free-transfers, fare control or what-not. I care about track connection, where trains run and go into a bottleneck/congestion zone. The track connection(s) let me say it is a Station Complex. I could replace it to 23rd Ely, 45th Court House and Court Sq. if you want a compromise, :facepalm:... Out resident Prose Artist is Tom Cruise?!? Why is it so hard to follow him in bad movies?!? Still making foolish posts right after your farewell message? It's not hard to understand 7LineFan or anyone else statements when you just skim by like road runner.

I care about track connection, where trains run and go into a bottleneck/congestion zone. The track connection(s) let me say it is a Station Complex. But just cuz its all near each other, doesn't mean that they're prone to delays. That's like saying Livonia on the & Junius on the (I think that's the right station) are prone to delays cuz they're near each other and indirectly connected to each other. I could replace it to 23rd Ely, 45th Court House and Court Sq. if you want a compromise, :facepalm: That's even worse cuz: A. Those stations aren't prone to delays. B. 1 of those 3 stations is part of a different division and C. Said station is above ground and is nowhere near connected to the other 2. Yet another eloquent post from our resident prose artist...

7LineFan Posted February 7, 2010 Share #60 Posted February 7, 2010 I think what Megabus is trying to say is the connects to the so they can switch together & cause delays He was saying that, but he also said that Queensboro Plaza and Queens Plaza have that track connection so they can be called a station complex, which is false. Anyways it's a moot point now since if he really did leave, he won't be replying to this anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Vandelay Posted February 7, 2010 Share #61 Posted February 7, 2010 Regardless of whether or not you call it a station complex, it isnt a particularly bad area for train congestion. No at grade crossings are in use, which allows the junction to work fairly well. The two really bad junctions as far as I have experienced are the 2/3 split north of 135 and the 2/3/4/5 clusterf**k south of Franklin ave. 59/8 and Dekalb are both awful, but that is due to tower ineptness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me, when people want to up and leave, they'll just do it without notice. Zman said the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted February 7, 2010 Share #64 Posted February 7, 2010 I think what Megabus is trying to say is the connects to the so they can switch together & cause delays Why are you even attempting to bother justifying his post? It's not a complex because you need to go into Manhattan to connect back. Hell IMO the F at 63rd-Lex is hardly concidered part of the Lex-59th St 'complex' and that's a MC transfer.
