EE Broadway Local Posted April 2, 2010 Share #1 Posted April 2, 2010 Not sure what might be prompting a weekend suspension of the to Rockaway Park, but I thought you might enjoy seeing this: No Trains Running, Take The Instead Weekend, 11 PM Fri. To 4:45 AM Mon, Apr. 2-5 Trains rerouted from Broad Channel to Rockaway Park during this time. With the running to Rockaway Park, we have: Trains Rerouted From Broad Channel To Rockaway Park Free Shuttle Buses Provide Alternate Service Between Far Rockaway And Beach 90 St Weekend, 10:30 PM Fri To 4:45 AM Mon, Apr 2-5 * Trains replace the between Broad Channel and Rockaway Park *Shuttle Buses make all stops between Far Rockaway and Beach 90 St at Beach 25, Beach 36, Beach 44, Beach 60 and Beach 67 Sts. *Transfer between the Train and shuttle bus at Beach 90 St. NOTE: Manhattan-bound Trains skip Beach 98 St. Station/ Shuttle Bus Stop/ Bus Stop Far Rockaway/ On Beach 22 St at Mott Ave/ -- Beach 25 St/ On Beach Channel Dr at Beach 25 St/ -- Beach 36 St/ On Beach Channel Dr at Beach 36 St/ Q22 Beach 44 St/ On Beach Channel Dr at Beach 44 St/ Q22 Beach 60 St/ On Beach Channel Dr at Beach 59 St/ Q22 Beach 67 St/ On Beach Channel Dr at Beach 67 St/ Q22 Beach 90 St/ On Rockaway Beach Blvd at Beach 90 St/ Q22 The following weekend, this reverses and the free shuttle buses make all stops between Beach 116th Street and Beach 67th Street.

Bill from Maspeth Posted April 2, 2010 Share #2 Posted April 2, 2010 Probably track replacement and station renewal on the Far Rock branch. Since the A is re-routed to Rock Park the S is not needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EE Broadway Local Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share #3 Posted April 2, 2010 Track replacement does sound logical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32 3348 Posted April 2, 2010 Share #4 Posted April 2, 2010 They are rehabbing quite a few stations on both ends of the line, so the whole GO (this weekend and next) makes sense. I might take advantage of this to get pics of the to Rockaway Park instead of waiting during rush hour for just 5 trains' worth of pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NX Express Posted April 2, 2010 Share #5 Posted April 2, 2010 Probably station rehab work and preparation for Mott Avenue rehabilitation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmallParkShuttle Posted April 5, 2010 Share #6 Posted April 5, 2010 I went down the line on Friday and they had concrete ties stacked up on the street at B72 St and B67 St. Most likely put them in this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EE Broadway Local Posted April 5, 2010 Author Share #7 Posted April 5, 2010 Did anyone try the to Rockaway Park or the free shuttle bus to Far Rockaway this weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
