lupojohn Posted April 26, 2014 Share #1953 Posted April 26, 2014 (edited) Due to signal problems between Wilson Avenue and Broadway Junction, some Canarsie-bound trains are terminating at Myrtle Avenue and some 8th-Avenue bound trains terminate at either Broadway Junction or Atlantic Avenue.

CenSin Posted April 30, 2014 Share #1954 Posted April 30, 2014 I'm seeing N trains run express on the West End towards Manhattan. Given it's night time, I doubt any planned service change would put the N on the West End. I saw one heading towards 62 Street empty and another towards Bay Parkway with more people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CenSin Posted April 30, 2014 Share #1956 Posted April 30, 2014 I checked immediately after posting and saw this. I didn't have enough on my battery to make a correction though. N express via West End at night is a rarity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHV9218 Posted May 1, 2014 Share #1957 Posted May 1, 2014 (edited) Some mess on the 2/3. 2 N/B via 5, 2 S/B via 1 to SF. FDNY wants power off along the 2/3 in the Wall St region, guess that's an issue. They got it, track 3 south of Wall St / to Chambers St. Fire on the northbound track. Some talk of cutting power to Brooklyn too. Edit: Now off all the way to Borough Hall. Was standing near a firehouse in the rain lol, lot of stuff you hear.

realizm Posted May 2, 2014 Share #1965 Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) This derailment is going to affect evening PM rush hour service in a very bad way, affecting all boroughs, definitely, with parts of the IND QBL totally shut down. This is not looking good at all! Edited May 2, 2014 by realizm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j express Posted May 2, 2014 Share #1966 Posted May 2, 2014 Expect serious over crowding on the during the p.m rush if it dosent get fixed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjbr40 Posted May 2, 2014 Share #1967 Posted May 2, 2014 Don't forget the and train will be overwhelmed as well because the train go to Jamaica the long way. The will take passenger near the 71 ave area. and is the line that will help them get to bus nearby. LIRR will be little overwhelmed with train stopping in between NYPenn and Jamaica if nobody think that way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N6 Limited Posted May 2, 2014 Share #1968 Posted May 2, 2014 I'm on the now, toward Manhattan, it's not packed, but as pm rush begins it may get crazy. They have shuttles at 179th st going to the via Q43, and one going to the (not sure of the routing). It would be nice if they told riders before they got off the bus that there is no train service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realizm Posted May 2, 2014 Share #1969 Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) The Lexington Avenue Line is going to be a complete mess. The 53rd Street corridor is knocked out for the count unless the T/Ds figure out some sort of plan for split service, quickly. This curtailment in service will create a huge problem with the crowds of evening rush commuters trying to travel to Penn Station forcing them to get on the Lex and transfer at GC to get to the other side of Manhattan.

pjbr40 Posted May 2, 2014 Share #1970 Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) just to add note the Fastrak in that area was supposed to be done in January but it got cancel because of the weather inclement and their future one is in July. If the January was never cancel it possible this wouldn't happen. If the people use the Lexington Ave they should go straight to Brooklyn and go from there. If that East Side access was open it probably alleviate the crowds. Edited May 2, 2014 by pjbr40 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

realizm Posted May 2, 2014 Share #1972 Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) Not exactly, trains are turning at Queens Plaza. Well I am thinking in the sense that there is no service past Essex, and the fact that service will be adversely affected in Manhattan as the frequency of trains will be reduced. With only one train running through the corridor it will make it a disaster of a commute for those coming from work in need of getting to Penn Station on the IND 8th Ave line. This has happened to my commute before with delays on the through the 53rd Street corridor resulting in platforms esp @ Lexington Ave and 5th Ave/53rd Street so crowded and trains so delayed and overloaded it actually creates dangerous conditions on the platforms. Last time I was caught up in a mess like that I swore it looked like the Tokyo subway! Many commuters will try to get on the Lex thinking of a alternative creating even more confusion.

TrainFanInfinity Posted May 2, 2014 Share #1974 Posted May 2, 2014 Isn't there a switch at Northern Boulevard or something like that? Why couldn't OR trains terminate there? (Not both because of capacity). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
