I disagree. The was my best friend on nights when I'd commute back from this girl's spot in Inwood. I'd catch the local to 145 or 125 and then the would race me out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irony is irony: The attacker then called the victim a "pussy" The attacker fled the scene, police said. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkmatechamp13 Posted May 20, 2016 Share #12580 Posted May 20, 2016 So instead of just jumping on the train and going home (since it was an train conductor), he punches the conductor in the face. Yeah, that makes sense..... I hope the conductor is alright. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

46Dover Posted May 22, 2016 Share #12591 Posted May 22, 2016 Man. Tried the subways yesterday to get to Trainworld in Brooklyn and it was a nightmare. I had to settle for a to West 4th Street from Port Authority instead of an that was packed to the brim. Just as well since the wait time for the was a few minutes once I got to the bottom level. Hated that they had the Ditmas Ave exit closed off as I was at the front of the train. Barely made it to Trainworld before they closed. Went back to Manhattan by way of the and . Got a possible glimpse of the future as the ran on the express track after 4 Avenue All in all, what a mess with all this work and detours as a result. One of the reasons why I'm always iffy about coming to the city on weekends.... Going to correct myself now. Ended up being 4 apparently. What is going on out here? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there are more nice diners out there to have lunch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I love Trains99 Posted May 22, 2016 Share #12593 Posted May 22, 2016 The should run local in Manhattan over night and the should run local in Queens over night, there is no need for any over night express service. is better off running express during late nights in Manhattan. The is doing it's job along 6 Av during the night. Now if the ridership increases along 6 Av during late nights the should run local. I agree that the should go local during the late nights along QB. There's not a lot of ridership along that line during the night. needs help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I love Trains99 Posted May 22, 2016 Share #12594 Posted May 22, 2016 If the South Side of the Manhattan Bridge closes for inspection like it did from 1988-2001 will the turn into the and if that would happen were will the terminate? Also would the go to 2 Av and take place temporarily? If the North Side of the Manhattan Bridge was to close for inspection like it did from 1986-1988 and 2001-2004, will the be replaced by as the Brighton Express? Would the be re-extended back to Coney Island via West End? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

checkmatechamp13 Posted May 22, 2016 Share #12596 Posted May 22, 2016 Ugh, no merging whatsoever at 59th/Columbus Circle on the , and yet my express still had to wait outside of 59th. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's northbound thats because when a train switches from the Express to the local tracks or vice-versa the train behind either track has to wait until it crosses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkmatechamp13 Posted May 23, 2016 Share #12598 Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) If it's northbound thats because when a train switches from the Express to the local tracks or vice-versa the train behind either track has to wait until it crosses. There was no merging required. The were running via 8th Avenue Local & CPW Local, and the was running via 8th Avenue Express & CPW Express. Yet my express still had to wait for a few minutes south of 59th Street (which would be normal under normal conditions when the and have to merge). I can understand waiting at 59th itself (which is what we had to do) but I don't see the point in waiting south of 59th to enter the station. And before anybody comments, read the GOs for this weekend and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Idk what you're talking about The platform conductors at West 4th told me that the and were both running local all the way uptown. Alright that makes sense that we had to wait for the to cross in front of us (assuming there was an in front of that ). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
