Some northbound (Q) trains will end at Times Sq-42 St or 57 St-7 Av.

There is no (Q) train service between 96 St and 57 St-7 Av in both directions.

Customers can take the M15 and M31 buses for nearby station stops.

These service changes are because of a switch problem at 57 St-7 Av.

They can't reroute trains down 6th?

What does a block ticket look like?

its a ticket that was used for bus transfers prior to the introduction of the MetroCard Bus Transfer, now used for Subway Shuttle buses when a portion of subway service is cut from a particular place. For instance, when the (1) train only runs to 137th Street in the weekend, Subway Shuttle buses are instituted to run from 137th Street to 242nd Street Van Cortlandt Park. Block tickets are used in this case to board on Subway Shuttle buses, although some places do not give those tickets.

The ticket looks more like a rectangle than anything though.

https://www.nyctransitforums.com/topic/6379-block-ticket/ There is a picture in that forum. From what it says on the ticket, I think its valid everywhere 2 days from the time punched on the ticket

(N) trains are going via Brighton and (D) trains are going via the (F) to Jay Street, and then via the (A) to Columbus Circle.

 

Service Change

There is no northbound (D)(N) , and (R) service south of Jay St MetroTech because of ongoing switch trouble at Atlantic Av-Barclays Ctr.

Maintainers are on scene working to restore regular service, but at this time please use alternate service options.

See a station agent for a block ticket for continuing train or bus service.

For northbound service in Brooklyn on the (N) or (D) lines take a southbound train and transfer at Coney Island for (F) or (Q) service.

At this time, consider using the nearby B37bus on 3 Av: http://bit.ly/2KvMzYY or the nearbyB63 bus on 5 Av: http://bit.ly/2MGtKyA

As an alternative, consider using nearby NYC Ferry service. A free transfer does not apply to the NYC Ferry. For service from Bay Ridge, take the B9 or B64 bus: http://bit.ly/2tP3c7j For service from Sunset Park, take the B11 bus: http://bit.ly/2INzfJx
