If the switch problem is at 57th St why is the rest of 6th AV affected?

Because the interns can't tell apart 57th Street from 47th Street from 37th Street.

Meanwhile, I expect the obligatory "(B) trains are not running between Bedford Park Blvd and Brighton Beach Avenue in both directions" alert to come in shortly.

(F) train service remains suspended in both directions between Church Av and Coney Island-Stillwell Av because of an electrical fire at Avenue I Station. We are awaiting the arrival of Con Ed personnel on the scene. Until we're able to coordinate with Con Ed, consider using the B68 bus on Coney Island Ave. For directions from Church Av to the B68 bus please follow this link http://goo.gl/2qN2Jr 

Northbound (F) trains are stopping along the (D) line from Coney Island-Stillwell Av to DeKalb Av then along the (Q) line to Lexington Av-63 St.   

Southbound (B)(D) and (F) trains will end at Church Av. 

Expect delays in (B)(D), (F) and (Q) train service.  

These service changes are because of FDNY activity at Avenue I.

The earlier train with mechanical problems at Jackson Hts-Roosevelt Av is on the move.

Some northbound (R) trains are stopping along the  line from 57 St-7 Av to 96 St.

Some Forest Hills-bound (M) trains are stopping along the  line from Essex St to Chambers St and end.

Some southbound (N) trains are running local from Canal St to DeKalb Av.

These service changes are because of signal problems at Jackson Hts-Roosevelt Av.

LIRR is accommodating NYCT Metro card customer at no additional charges at the following stations:

Kew Gardens, Forest Hills and 34 St-Penn Station.

Expect delays on (E), (F), (M) and (R) trains.

Bad day for Queens riders part 2, just in time for the PM rush hour...

Service Change

Posted: 05/24/2018  3:25PM

There is no (7) train service between Times Sq-42 St and 61 St-Woodside in both directions.

34 St bound (7) trains will end at 61 St-Woodside.

There is (7) train shuttle service between 34 St-Hudson Yards and Times Sq-42 St.

Theses service changes are because of signal problems at Queensboro Plaza.

For service between Manhattan and Queens, customers are advised to use the (E) , (F) , (M) , (N) , (R) and (W) trains.

 

 

I can only imagine the issues we'll have when the weather gets even warmer.

-----------------------------------------------------

Edit: The signal problems have evolved to involve the (N) and (W)

This is why I started taking the Q32 from Manhattan to 74th Broadway at nights. The (7) is pretty useless nowadays as an alternative to the Queens Blvd Lines with signal malfunctions. I can already see the (E) and (F) being slammed as a result of this service change.

The (B) Train didn't get suspended at all actually.

Maybe it would have been a good idea to run some (B) trains via Broadway to 96 st but they didn’t do that or suspend it . They thought the best thing was just to run some via the (A) and (F) line which is ok I guess until that fire came up at Avenue I. That must have been crazy turning 4 lines at Church Ave.Is that even possible ?

Well, Church Avenue is designed sort of like Jamaica–179 Street. Express trains can turn back on the upper level and local trains can turn back on the lower level—all without interfering with each other.

This service change will soon affect the (D) instead of the (F) , if local service isn't restored.

Northbound (F) and (G) trains continue to run express from Church Av to Smith-9 Sts because of a person struck by a train at 15 St-Prospect Park. The person has been removed from the scene by emergency medical personnel and we are working to restore northbound local service as soon as possible.

Northbound (F) and (G) trains are bypassing Fort Hamilton Pkwy, 15 St-Prospect Park, 7 Av and 4 Av-9 St. Southbound (F) and (G) trains are making all stops.

Expect delays in (F) and (G) train service.
