T to Dyre Avenue Posted August 6, 2019 Share #6476 Posted August 6, 2019 Yep...the and are real shit shows this evening! Got caught up in the madness at 74th St, after trying to get to Queens, first on the at Lex/63rd (which was also delayed), then on the at 57th/7th. And on a Mets game night of all nights, so you know the platform at 74th was extra-packed! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwwnyc123 Posted August 7, 2019 Share #6481 Posted August 7, 2019 They could do that for some rush hour put-in service from yard starting and ending at 105 St. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abba Posted August 7, 2019 Share #6482 Posted August 7, 2019 (edited) My question is if let’s say one day the switch to Canarsie would be out but they could relay in yard. Can they still run trains like regular? Edited August 7, 2019 by Abba 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abba Posted August 7, 2019 Share #6483 Posted August 7, 2019 I think if it’s planned it’s doable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aemoreira81 Posted August 8, 2019 Share #6484 Posted August 8, 2019 Right now, SIR is suspended west of Huguenot, possibly because of flooding. Shuttle bus service is serving beyond Huguenot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BM5 via Woodhaven Posted August 8, 2019 Share #6485 Posted August 8, 2019 Multiple Impacts Posted: 08/08/2019 1:08AM trains have service changes and delays because of a work train experiencing a mechanical problem on the Manhattan Bridge. Coney Island-bound trains end at 2 Av on the line. Bronx-bound trains are running along the line from DeKalb Av and ending at 34 St-Herald Square. Transfer between trains at 34 St-Herald Square. For service to/from Grand St, use the nearby Delancey St-Essex St station. Some Coney Island-bound trains are stopping along the line from 36 St to Coney Island-Stillwell Av. For service into Brooklyn, take a Coney Island-bound train to 4 Av-9 St for a Coney Island-bound or train. Multiple Impacts Posted: 08/08/2019 1:34AM and trains have service changes and delays while crews work to correct a switch problem south of Nevins St. The last stop on Brooklyn-bound trains is Chambers St or Wall St. The last stop on Brooklyn-bound trains is Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall or Bowling Green. For service into Brooklyn, consider taking a Coney Island-bound or train to Atlantic Av-Barclays Center for continuing and train service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kicking off the service change rather early, no? *shot* In all seriousness, I hope that wasn't some sort of suicide attempt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That explains the I saw running express SB and the cross platform to transfer I had going back home NB (the was on the local at Columbus Circle and it waited for the to arrive and depart in order to go express. Weird but it worked in my favor.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted August 12, 2019 Share #6494 Posted August 12, 2019 Probably just had to remove preventing the switch from locking in the correct position. Or something similarly minor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on the incident train yesterday, it sat in the station for about 10 minutes with no announcement. The T/O blew the police assisitance signal on the horn. Luckily NYPD was in the platform booth on the other side (there is usually a NYPD booth at stations that border river tubes). Apparently it didnt take too long to get the person off because we were soon on the way. Im guessing the incident either backed up the QBL express or forced a few trains to go via 53rd, hence the alert.
