BM5 via Woodhaven Posted October 31, 2017 Share #4626 Posted October 31, 2017 2 hours ago, CenSin said: 96 Street should be good enough to turn all of Broadway’s trains, no? 57 Street–7 Avenue seems like a terrible place to turn trains since that is the only way to/from 96 Street from Broadway. It can't turn all four services without delays. I believe this is just a case of terminating trains anywhere so it does not clog up 96th. It was not mentioned and IDK if it happened, but I have a feeling some southbound and trains might have been rerouted down 6th Avenue instead, so that they would not get in the way of northbound trains terminating at whatever location. Perhaps trains made it to 6th Avenue in both directions as well. I don't know for sure though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very least, they should have terminated express trains at Times Square–42 Street and have local trains continue to 96 Street. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not during the Rush Hour. That would've caused more congestion. Every other train was good enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTrainUK Posted November 4, 2017 Share #4631 Posted November 4, 2017 Interesting one on the tonight, apparently there was a shopping trolley on the tracks at Utica earlier! Bearing in mind Utica is an underground station, and they had to get it through the turnstiles, how did it find its way onto the track?! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely use the to get to Riverdale because it isn't all that fast compared to the (the last few stops Northbound are especially painful and slow), plus I'm limited to just the Bx7 bus if it is late at night. I went that way once years ago to avoid backtracking to the express bus and I said never again. The was express but still slow, and waiting for the Bx7 there were rats running all over the place by Isham Street. That apartment building has an alley and it's infested with rats and I do mean rats. They were bigger than my shoes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I get the or home from work at night (I get on at Chambers St) it doesnt matter which one i get because theyre both going local.

B46 via Utica Posted November 26, 2017 Share #4639 Posted November 26, 2017 There no R train service from 36 St-(BKLYN) to 95 St in both directions because of debris on the tracks at 86 St. There is R shuttle train service between 36 St (Bklyn) and Bay Ridge-95 St in both directions. Southbound R trains are stopping along the D line from 36 St (Bklyn) to 9 Av then end. Crazy!! Southbound E trains are stopping along the F line from 2 Av and end at Church Av.

BM5 via Woodhaven Posted November 27, 2017 Share #4644 Posted November 27, 2017 More Sunday evening disruptions just in case you missed the earlier ones: Service Change Posted: 11/26/2017 8:25PM Some southbound trains are stopping on the line from West 4 St-Washington Square to Coney Island-Stillwell Av. Some southbound trains are stopping along the line from 59 St-Columbus Circle to Jay St-Metrotech, then over the line to Coney Island-Stillwell Av. These service changes are because of a rail condition at Broadway-Lafayette. As an alternative for service to Grand St, use the nearby Delancey St station. For Coney Island bound service from Grand St, take a Norwood bound train to W 4 St- Washington Square for Coney Island-bound trains. Expect delays in train service. (I don't know how this affects the though) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
