6 Lexington Ave Posted August 24, 2011 Share #2 Posted August 24, 2011 I like it a lot. Why not go further into Queens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgor Posted August 24, 2011 Share #4 Posted August 24, 2011 What? No Second Avenue Subway?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sovetskii52 Posted August 24, 2011 Share #5 Posted August 24, 2011 I would extend the from Metropolitan Avenue up to a station on Queens Blvd to make it easier and faster to get from the middle of the Queens Blvd Line to the Myrtle and Jamaica Lines. Don't forget about the 2nd Avenue subway and the extension of the to 34th Street and 10th or 11th Avenue. I see that on the IRT Nostrand Avenue Line, you have a station on Avenue S, and the next one downtown is on Avenue U. Just 2 blocks? Spread out the stations a bit. Overall, pretty nice.

I like the idea, but I am WAY to lazy to draw around everything to make the and extentions. This was hell to edit as is. As for Avenue S and U, I might combine them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The I Man Posted August 27, 2011 Share #8 Posted August 27, 2011 I like it a lot. Why not go further into Queens? Extend the F to 268 Street. Four track the line from 179 Street to Springfield Blvd. Have an extended rush hour T line run Between Springfield Blvd and Church Ave. Extend the E via Archer Ave and Merrick Blvd to Springfield Blvd. There are countless other extensions to other boros, but you get the idea.

sovetskii52 Posted September 6, 2011 Share #11 Posted September 6, 2011 Nice. I like the Express L train. Good idea. What is with that short U train branching off from 86th Street on the Lexington, and into Central Park? I wonder how much a single fare would cost if the subway was like this.

VWM Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share #13 Posted September 7, 2011 Actually, if u read the top left, it's just a funny thing i decided to put in because there's an underworld enterance in Central park in the Percy Jackson Books. Just kinda like an Easter Egg, Just not hidden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( K ) Reroute it on 8th Avenue between 42 Street-PABT and 14 Street. Fine the way it is. ( M ) Discontinue the rush hour service to... 36 Street- Because there is no way to layup. At least extend it to 9th Avenue. Bay Parkway- Because of the . You can't use the switches because the and the both use the switches. There will be delays. (MS) Eliminate it.

VWM Posted September 11, 2011 Author Share #15 Posted September 11, 2011 Trainfaninfinity- I'm not going for reality here. It's called FANTASY for a reason. on your ideas... on switching the i did it reliever the amount of stops on the supposed to be the can't be the w/o stopping at coney island but yeah probubly outside rush hour it'll be cut back if it was going that way, what would serve new lots late nites.... oops. The is no more because it was a shuttle and it was cut back for a reason. No south of 14 St. Why? Too hard to edit. going to fix the placement of stations the gives upper and lower west side service, just decided to make it go to javits center. no changes for the ???

Grandpa Posted September 21, 2011 Share #16 Posted September 21, 2011 Hi, How about: the A to Riverdale, along Riverdale avenue to Yonkers border? D to Coop city via Allerton Avenue ? R to staten Island, ( should have crossed on Verazano bridge) 1 two more stops Northward? B)B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadcruiser1 Posted September 21, 2011 Share #17 Posted September 21, 2011 No subway train can ever utilize the Verrazano Narrows Bridge. The bridge was built and designed by Robert Moses a car advocate and a major highway proponent. He made the ramps on the bridge extremely steep so it would be too steep for trains. Next he made multiple sharp turns toward the bridge's approaches so trains can go up there, and even if it can he made the bridge extremely light so it can't support any subway trains. The only thing that might be able to cross the bridge in the future is light rail/streetcar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallyhorse Posted October 10, 2011 Share #22 Posted October 10, 2011 My changes would include (and again, this is FANTASY): The as it is now for real. A revival of the old line, but as a new train that would join the Montauge Street line at Metrotech (underground) and then go to Whitehall weekends/overnights and Astoria other times. and/or extended to Belmont Park (especially since by the time such an extension took place, Belmont likely will be a Racino).
