53rd St tunnel is closed, so can't go between on between Jamaica Center and 42nd St-PABT.

Extending to 168th St is way too long.

Lord have mercy he's never gonna let that die. If the can't go to B'way/ENY, then let the go to 168? Really? If we're making up crazy sh*t, why not send the up to Bedford Park Blvd and reroute the to Jamaica Center?

The idea is this incarnation of the is really the north of West 4th and would use the 's equipment and its own for this.  The obviously is via 63rd and the to 36th Street, but does run at all times and in a change from what I wrote runs local to 71st-Continental.

 

In a change from what I originally wrote, the is NOT suspended, but only runs between Queens Plaza and Jamaica Center and is local Queens Plaza-Roosevelt Avenue before going express after that.

 

Also obviously on my reroute, I meant Essex-168th, NOT West 4th-168th.

Lol at bold part. You sad the KK was discontinued so you have to make a super route now. The wonders...

 

At this point, what's next, the to Jamaica Center, the to 168 (no wait, you did that in a way) , or the to Metropolitan? Seriously what's up! Half the riders will bombard the because they don't know where this super route is going. Or they will just take the .

This is what I get for rushing.  To correct:

runs all times via the and between West 4th and Jay Street.  Special shuttle trains operate as follows:

 

Between Jay Street, Brooklyn and Delancey Street, Mahattan

 

Single track between Delancey Street and 2nd Avenue, Manhattan AND between 2nd Avenue and Broadway-Lafayette Streets in Manhattan.

 

Rush hours, select trains operate via the between Roosevelt, Queens and Bergen Street, Brooklyn.

When capacity is not an issue, select trains operate between Delancey Street, Manhattan and Coney Island, Brooklyn.

That should have read:

via the to West 4th and THEN via the and between West 4th and Jay Street.

Everything else in my previous post remains as is.
