ChrisKocur Posted March 5, 2011 Share #1 Posted March 5, 2011 Does anyone know what the project is that is shutting down the Q train from Prospect Park-57th st. the next few weekends?

ChrisKocur Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share #3 Posted March 5, 2011 Quoting MTA press release: Thanks for the info, I'd figure with three weekends and a bunch of late weeknights with no service they should be able to relay all the north and southbound track with concrete ballast from prospect park to Atlantic then Atlantic up to Dekalb.
