Service Change

Posted: 10/03/2016 11:20AM

Due to switch problems between Queensboro Plaza and Lexington Av/59 St, we are experiencing significant delays.

The following service changes are in effect:

Northbound (Q) trains are terminating at 57 St-7 Av.

Some southbound (R) trains are running on the (F) line from 36 St (QNS) to W 4 St-Washington Square and then on the (D) line to [/b]DeKalb Av.

Some southbound (N) trains are running on the (R) line from Canal St to DeKalb Av.

Expect delays on (B), (D), (F), (M), (N), (Q) and (R) train service.

We regret the inconvenience and are working to correct the problem.

 

Thanks MTA what would I do without your service changes that you post online but no one pays attention to?

It’s nice that the (R) has a redundant option to exercise.

And when the Second Avenue Subway opens, you'll have yet another option: via the (F) to Lex-63rd then via the (Q) to 34th. I also remember during the Montague tunnel shutdown, they sent the Whitehall Street bound trains to 2nd Avenue via the (M).

Isn’t it the same option?

I believe the tunnels between Lex-63rd and 57th-7th are getting some remedial work done so they probably decided to wall everything off.

It is for water remediation and track replacement in the BMT 63rd st connector, this has been going on since Jan or Feb.

 

As of yesterday the barriers were still up on the Brooklyn bound level. They can be a bit hard to see if the train is going by fast.

Their was a fire in the (L) train tunnel this morning that's STILL causing delays on the line..

 

Due to earlier FDNY activity at Bedford Av, l.png trains are running with extensive delays in both directions.

As an alternative, customers are advised to use a.pngc.png or j.png train service at Broadway Junction.

Customers can transfer between the l.png and the m.png trains at Myrtle Av for service to Manhattan.

From Lorimer St, take the g.png.
