I notice this General Order:

 

(3) Service is extended to Chambers St

 

 

Late Night, 12:01 AM to 6:30 AM, Sat and Sun

12:01 AM to 5 AM, Sep 18 - 20

 

Late Night, 12:01 AM to 6:30 AM Sat and Sun,

 

12:01 AM to 5 AM Mon, Sep 25 - 27

 

 

• Chambers St-bound trains run local from 72 to Chambers Sts.

 

• 148 St-bound trains run local from Chambers to 96 Sts.

 

Note: Late night service is extended to Chambers St.

 

Idk why its being extended and how is it possible for this train service to end on the Express track of the (2)/(3) since the (2) is running to/from brooklyn and the bronx. Maybe it ill extend to South Ferry and end there or run via SF Loop?

Between 2001 and 2002, (1) trains terminated at Chambers Street...no big deal since it was hawk hours and turning the (1) in front of the (2) wasn't much of a hassle. I wouldn't be surprised if the (3) does the same thing or uses South Ferry to turn.

Obviously they're extending the (3) to Chambers because both the (2) and (3) are running mostly local on 7th Ave, so the (3) can't access the middle track south of Times Sq.

There is no G/O for the (1). On t/a site it says the (2) and (3) is going local in both direction

No can't be, because then they would have it end at 42nd st on the local track and use 34th St downtown exp track as relay. Its happened before.

Between 2001 and 2002, (1) trains terminated at Chambers Street...no big deal since it was hawk hours and turning the (1) in front of the (2) wasn't much of a hassle. I wouldn't be surprised if the (3) does the same thing or uses South Ferry to turn.

 

Nope, It went to New Lots in 2001-2002, after 9/11

Use that Shuttle Bus from the Ferry to Chambers Street for (2) and (3) service.

2. On St Nicholas Av between 191 and 168 Sts.

 

3. On Broadway between 168 and 96 Sts (express and local service).

#2 will happen late nights only when the M3 doesn't run.During the day from 191-168 the M3 will be free to passengers wanting the 1.On that note,as far as the express shuttle from 168-96 goes,watch them cancel that for one reason or another.That'll bring even more chaos.

Is the (1) Shuttle Bus running in 2 sections (242nd-96th & Chambers-South Ferry) or 3 sections (242nd-168th, 168th-96th, Chambers-South Ferry)? Just want some clarification, thanks!

Why? Bus shortage? Or bus-operator-overtime shortage?
