I got caught in that today. My (4) train stayed in Utica for about 10 minutes before we finally left

There is no (A) train service in both directions between Far Rockaway- Mott Av and Howard Beach-JFK Airport.

(7) train I'm on right now is being held at 82nd St for a good 15 minutes. C/R said something about a police investigation at 74th.

Too bad there isn't a way for the (7) to switch onto the express tracks and go straight to Woodside. If it's that long, it must be serious and that way passengers can switch over to the uptown side for 69th and 74th if they need it.

a.png train shuttle buses are detoured, due to a crane operation on Nevins St.

 

Detour is as follows:

 

Northbound: Jay St-bound: Via Flatbush Av, right on 4 Av, right on Atlantic Av, right on 3 Av, left on Schermerhorn St and then regular route.

 

Allow additional travel time.

This isn't really a service change but due to the fact the 4 isn't running this weekend the 5 is running a couple of 142A sets from the 4

I happened to catch one yesterday evening headed to Dyre Ave..

Very strange to see a Kawasaki in Bombardier territory

I didn't get a chance to get a picture of it (I wish I did tho) but I'm sure they are still out there

Try to catch one

Due to gap filler problems at 14 St-Union Square, northbound 4.png and 5.png trains are running local from 14 St-Union Square toGrand Central-42 St.

Allow additional travel time.

Yay, I get to scrutinize before anyone else got to it! The northbound platform doesn't HAVE gap fillers, so why would it get affected?????

 

Surely they meant southbound. And yes, the mta website has been updated to reflect that.

Due to NYPD activity at Bedford- Nostrand Avs, there is no G train service between Church Av and Court Sq.

Allow additional travel time.

Ah! The problems of 2-track lines with a sparse amount of switches: there's no running the line as little segments in case things go down somewhere and there's no possibility of bypassing the problem.
