Due to a report of an unauthorized person on tracks at 42 St-Bryant Pk, the following service changes are in effect:

There is no b.png train service from 145 St to Brighton Beach in both directions.

Southbound d.png trains are running on the a.png line from 59 St-Columbus Circle to W 4 St-Washington Sq.

Southbound f.png trains are running on the e.png line from Jackson Hts-Roosevelt Av to W 4 St-Washington Sq.

There is no m.png train service from Delancey St-Essex St to Forest Hills-71 Av in both directions.

Police are investigating.

Allow additional travel time.

 

 

So about an hour after this service change started I caught a (B) at Jay St, ended up running express on the local track to Church Avenue stopping at 7th Avenue (while an (F) train and a (D) train passed by on the express track), then local. The conductor announced (B) to Coney Island at all of the stops, but we ended up terminating at Kings Hwy middle track.

There was (B) service for sure. I got on the (Q) at 1:24. Missed the (B) by a hair at Brighton Beach and never caught up. Another one skipped us at Cortelyou Road.

The MTA replaced the northbound switch at Prospect Park this weekend.

 

This morning, the signal problems started at Prospect Park and it looks like it is not is not getting any better as the B trains are running local from Brighton Beach to Prospect Park and some Q trains have been diverted. The MTA is using the word "extensive" when referring to the delays so this seems to be a big delay.in terms of time.

When I posted the information on the Brighton Line this morning at about 11:30 AM  , it was the information that was current at that time. I checked the website  at about 12:15 PM, the word "extensive" was removed and it stated delays. When I  boarded the Q train at Sheepshead Bay at 1:15 PM service was normal.

Due to an unauthorized person on the tracks at 181 St, there is no 1.png train service between 137 St-City College and 215 St.

As an alternative for service customers may use the M4 and M5 bus service in Manhattan at 137 St and connect to the BX7bus at 167 St for service into the Bronx.

Allow additonal travel time.

 

What is it with these "urban explorers"? It seems like every day, there's some random person on the tracks somewhere.

I sure wouldn't want to be anywhere near the subway right now. The Dekalb change was originally just a (Q) diversion for a few stops, what happened?

l.png trains will run every 5 minutes in both directions during the evening rush due to signal problems along the line.

Please allow for additional crowding and delays.

If possible stagger your normal evening commute, or use an alternate service?.

We apologize for any inconvenience.
