This has happened before. I can't imagine the chaos this would cause, though. (I was on a Jamaica-bound on a Saturday, and 80% of the people were bound for Sutphin or Jamaica Center.)

 

The weekend before and after:

 

No trains between Crescent St and Jamaica Center

trains and free shuttle buses provide alternate service

Weekends, 3:30 AM Sat to 10 PM Sun, Apr 3 - 4 | Apr 17 - 18 | Apr 24 - 25

 

EDIT: Posts crossed.
