checkmatechamp13 Posted April 6, 2016 Share #3651 Posted April 6, 2016 Due to a rail condition at Fulton St, the following service changes are in effect: Southbound and trains are running on the line from W4 St-Washington Square to Jay St-Metrotech. Expect delays in and train service in both directions. Allow additional travel time. ------------------------------------------------------------------ It's amazing how many people at Fulton St trying to go to Brooklyn were utterly confused. It would be nice if there was a transfer to the train available at Fulton Street, since that goes right to Jay Street. Otherwise, you're forced to make do with the and then likely a bus after that. There is no train service between Bedford-Nostrand Avs and Church Av in both directions. There is no train service between W 4 St-Washington Square and Euclid Av in both directions. I wonder why they couldn't just have the terminate at Broadway Junction. There's crossovers both east and west of the station, and at least it has other connections to Manhattan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel The Cool Posted April 6, 2016 Share #3653 Posted April 6, 2016 For whatever reason, and trains were suspended running into the Bronx. Ended up waiting for 30 minutes at 34th Street before I decided to get the ... Nope there was a huge gap because of the rail conditions. I was in that mess. They had to send a really late Train CPW Local (Bronx Bound) because Northbound Train service was already suspended and there was a huge gap with Uptown Train service because of the Brooklyn Incident. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulrivera Posted April 6, 2016 Share #3655 Posted April 6, 2016 I'd totally love to know these incidents... -Rail condition at 103rd and/or 86th -Train broke down on the express track between West 4th and 34th -Rail condition at Fulton Street -Switch failure at Jay/Hoyt/Bergen was suspended between 2nd Avenue and Euclid Avenue was suspended between 2nd Avenue and 4th Av-9th St. was suspended between Bedford-Nostrand Avs and Church Av. Motives behind suspension: Some trains ran via West End and the Bridge and trains were running local on CPW due to broken rails Trains were behind schedule with the train that had mechanical problems on 6th Avenue Delays were compounded by heavy ridership from the Yankees game Motives behind suspension: and trains were running local on CPW due to broken rails There was another broken rail at Fulton St After the problems at Jay/Bergen/Hoyt, there was no way to get trains from Manhattan to Brooklyn since both possible routes were unavailable, and there was no place to turn trains on the Manhattan end (WTC was too busy with and leftover trains, 2nd Avenue was maxed out with and trains.) The should have still ran in Brooklyn IMO, but then again there was no more room at DeKalb since they were handling rerouted trains. God knows how many other trains got rerouted that we don't know about. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel The Cool Posted April 6, 2016 Share #3658 Posted April 6, 2016 -Rail condition at 103rd and/or 86th -Train broke down on the express track between West 4th and 34th -Rail condition at Fulton Street -Switch failure at Jay/Hoyt/Bergen was suspended between 2nd Avenue and Euclid Avenue was suspended between 2nd Avenue and 4th Av-9th St. was suspended between Bedford-Nostrand Avs and Church Av. Motives behind suspension: Some trains ran via West End and the Bridge and trains were running local on CPW due to broken rails Trains were behind schedule with the train that had mechanical problems on 6th Avenue Delays were compounded by heavy ridership from the Yankees game The suspension was caused by the rail conditions on the CPW Express Tracks not by the 6th Avenue incident nor the Train incident. Was in that mess yesterday and what happened was the last Northbound Trains was in The Bronx when they decided to suspend the line, the southbound Trains were still Uptown as of 6:05 PM because they were already on the road once they announced Train Service was being suspended. Keep in mind once the train is already on the road once they announced the line is suspended, those trains keep running to it's terminal and will go OOS to the storage if needed to although whats funny was once the Trains that was already at Brighton Beach was sent to storage, CPW rail conditions was fixed, they had to use a few of those Trains that were Brighton Beach to run back in service Uptown but the Train remained local for the rest of the day while the was done for the day. The via West End had nothing to do with the suspension because 1. It was every other Train that went via West end and 2. This happened many times in the past when something like that happened on the Train before during the Rush Hours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted April 8, 2016 Share #3664 Posted April 8, 2016 Not in that wording. With the ongoing (as of this post) police investigation, some downtown trains may have been rerouted to the express track, forcing some downtown trains over to 7th Ave. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interested Rider Posted April 9, 2016 Share #3665 Posted April 9, 2016 I do not know if this is the appropriate thread for this change on the N Train beginning tonight at 11:30 PM and continuing till Monday at 5 AM and my source is the Bay News and it is also on the MTA website. The N will be running via the West End Line all weekend in both directions with shuttle bus service being provided between Coney Island and 36th Street. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most trains we have in service are stuck in the Bronx north of the incident. and trains are not running between East 180 St and 3 Ave-149 St in both directions.

In addition, Metro-North will cross-honor NYCT Transit passengers between Wakefield and 125 St. Allow additional travel time. If it's enough to make the SubwayTime server crash (or have the MTA intentionally disconnect the feed, they do that sometimes when there's widespread unplanned changes), it must be major.
