NX Express 292 Posted August 30, 2010 Share #177 Posted August 30, 2010 Its just 3 lines, its not like all the Bway services run there It was crowded before, now imagine with the extensions of the B'way lines in Queens... Also, just make the a circle already... Knowing the (L)'s current TPH, are you sure you want to combine it with the (P)(X)? The <J>, (P), (X), and are not needed in Brooklyn the way they are. What street is the (O) running on? It seems 100% useless. The (I) would not work as a 34 St x-town because of the proximity of the , as well as the Penn Station tracks. The is utterly useless. Just extend the to St. George and cut the back to 207 St. The is two blocks away north of 207 St. 3 Av (Bronx) would choke with so many services...it's not needed... Replies?

NX Express 292 Posted September 13, 2010 Share #183 Posted September 13, 2010 Nobody would use the from SI because it is Brooklyn Local. All SI trains should be Brooklyn Exp/Super-Exp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it okay if the Brighton line needs 3 services? like the (? 'cause lower Manhattan is taken by the in my map. what should I do? I was thinking of eliminating it, but how would the handle the area south of Ditmars Blvd. also, would you think it's stupid if the switch? like making the on the west end & the to Staten island since it's express Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could try that, but lower Manhattan would be hell in the rush, with all those traffics. I don't know yet. Instead I'm thinking of putting it on the 4th avenue line express via the bridge, so it could replace the , but I don't know where to put the If I do that.

Since 2 Av might not handle 4 services, eliminate the and and send the or (U) to 71 Av via 63 Street. The can go to Astoria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E Local 0 Posted September 14, 2010 Author Share #190 Posted September 14, 2010 Ok, now I have a bigger problem. what am I gonna do with the in Staten Island? I don't wanna have the Bay Ridge shuttle at nights & the Express is taken by the , maybe or should I switch the lines? maybe the express via lower Manhattan like the in the 90's & the Manhattan bridge construction from 2001-2004, & the running local but still running through the west end line & stopping at Dekalb Avenue. what do you guys think? good or bad?

Roadcruiser1 286 Posted September 14, 2010 Share #191 Posted September 14, 2010 Why don't you just extend the train to Staten Island with a transfer at 95th Street. Then push the train back to 95th Street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E Local 0 Posted September 17, 2010 Author Share #192 Posted September 17, 2010 New map! http://www.flickr.com/photos/51682520@N02/4999882316/sizes/l/ New changes: - The (P)(O) lines are eliminated sorry, If I use either of them, it will be for a fifth avenue line, well not the . - A new V train runs from 137 street, in Manhattan to LGA Airport in Queens, also via 125 street in Manhattan, Idea by Nxexpress - the (U) Changes. the to 212 street in Queens to fill the gap & the (U) to 242 in the Bronx to fill the gap. - (X) extended to the Bronx, because I don't like trains that only run in Manhattan besides the (0). - No more Service in Staten island, instead extended to 3 Avenue in Brooklyn, & in Queens replaced the to Main Street, Queens. - extended to Riverbank State Park all times to replace the (P) Gap, & to make up for that, the (X) now runs local all times. - the extended to Kissena park to replace the old extension there but not using the same tracks. - (X) trains no longer run to Coney Island, they run to South ferry instead. - The switch in Manhattan, the is now local again so as the is express again. - The Is extended to JFK Airport now, idea also by Nxexpress. I know I forgot to add more stops for the (I). the (I) was made for super express service between JFK Airport & midtown. so I made this line but with 4 stops only, so after a stop in Queens it runs express to Manhattan where it makes stops to connect to all the cities trunk lines. So Yeah, leave your concerns & comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse 2,690 Posted September 18, 2010 Share #197 Posted September 18, 2010 In my opinion, the West End should always be the 4 Avenue local with the switch from the West End line to the 4 Avenue express tracks locked in place so the 4 Avenue express can actually enter the station at full speed and eliminate the possibility that a train gets in the way right before entering the station. Perhaps, but then the West End riders will likely get off and take the express at 36th and delay that train by 'cramming in'. So you are not likely to save much time anyway by making the West End train a local. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are not likely to save much time anyway by making the West End train a local. What ever kind of cramming takes place, it couldn't possibly cost 3~6 minutes of my time. The cost comes from the need to always slow down 2 stations before entering 36 Street and sometimes stop for another train merging ahead or waits for that train to merge ahead even if it could have pulled into the station and pulled out long before the other train arrives. The removal of obstacles like merging trains makes both trains' schedules much easier to adhere to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
