Pablo M 201 Posted June 27, 2008 Share #4 Posted June 27, 2008 Man, that was a really crazy time. I should have my 9/17/2001 map around. I will never forget the constant changes that were done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will never forget september 2001. Seems like it was just a few weeks ago. I guess some things have that effect. The biggest and most bothersome service change for me was (obviously) the suspension of PATH service to WTC for what seemed like forever. The first time i rode it after service resumed... it was really, really eerie & sad. - Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7LineFan Posted June 27, 2008 Share #6 Posted June 27, 2008 It would be great to see some pics of trains on these rerouted routes, like say a at 71/Continental or a at 95 St. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It felt weird seeing red line trains to 33rd and green line trains to Journal Square and Newark, no yellow line except weekends. It felt a little weirder when Exchange Place opened up again and it was the last stop. Then it really felt weird when I first rode the red line back to the WTC the first day it reopened. I just didn't feel comfortable because I miss the old WTC station so much. My father use to take me there all the time and we just ride trains from when I got out of school and into the night.

Yea, my girlfriend was saying that too last september. She only really goes there on the 33rd street line unless shes meeting me because of the memories. - Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was working full time in Brooklyn at that time so I was driving to work everyday. It wasn't until 2004 that I started working in Manhattan again after four years working in BK.

sebbieprops Posted June 30, 2008 Share #16 Posted June 30, 2008 I wasn't affected much by the changes, since I was in high school then, and I only took the Bx4 and Q44 buses there and back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some R62A were borrowed from the to the . More R142 and R142A's were placed into service at this time too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
