Lawrence St Posted February 15, 2018 Share #4857 Posted February 15, 2018 The was a complete mess yesterday. I was waiting at 125th St for a northbound for about 25 minutes. This was originally suppose to operate via Jerome Express and end at Burnside, but it went local the whole way to Woodlawn and we kept getting held at every station for about 2 to 5 minutes for "supervison". Like there were no trains in front of us, why didn't dispatch send us express for lost time? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In cases like that the train will be “ gapped “ to even out the spacing between trains. If your train went express to Burnside and dropped out think about the number of stations that wouldn’t have any service from 149th St to Woodlawn. Without knowing the specifics of the big picture the procedure was the correct one. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously at times I want to know who comes up with these changes. When the train runs via Broadway, it does not mean it is running via the affected area. 53rd Street on Seventh Avenue and 57th Street on Seventh Avenue are two completely different stops. Besides, that train coming to Times Square via Broadway caught me by surprise; I didn't have to wait that long to catch it. I caught it at Times Square from the train I took from the train at 59th Street, after taking two pictures from and on the upper level Bronx bound platform and taking a single one from the middle level Brooklyn bound wall at Lexington Avenue. Everything has tended to go very crazy with the train as of late.

At least I did not take the train from Tremont Avenue as I wanted to do; I guess I had a premonition that the train was already screwed so bad by the lack of service, although it would have been a sight to see. 11 minutes ago, BM5 via Woodhaven said: And that's not what Lawrence St was referring to.

I know @Lawrence St was not referring to that; I just wanted to explain to him that the signal problem was at 53rd Street on Seventh Avenue, not Seventh Avenue on Flatbush Avenue. Please pardon me for not being clear enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, this is how this should be. Though obviously this is not the way I'd like to see this, it makes sense to have the go to 145 or 96/2 rather than Chambers in that situation so those on Broadway-Brooklyn looking for 6th Avenue don't lose that portion of the line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allowing locals to terminate on a different track than expresses during disruptions/PSCs would do worlds for QBL. I'd argue it'd be the biggest improvement post-63rd.
