The signal blocks are probably borderline at best. It would likely have been a complex and really slow operation.

My GF is t/o on the 1 & 2. One day she had to take a lite train from 241-Liv YD. They made her take 7 Av Loc(didn’t want her in front or behind the 3 on the exp) to 14th but had to call back at TSQ, then told her to take the loc to 14th then exp to chambers. From what I was told they want to keep those switches free so it doesn’t bother the night 3 shuttle if in case those switches malfunction. 
 

Which leads me to believe why most GOs the 2/3 is local from Chambers to 96 or 14th to 96. The less switching the better. Even if work isn’t being done south of 34th it’s just easier to keep local.

A SB (F) train apparently got rerouted at Roosevelt via the (G) (it said next stop, Court Square). So it looks like the issue is restricted to some point along the 53rd Street tracks.

Also, trains are being rerouted in both directions.

New smoke condition popped up:

Trains Rerouted

Unbelievable. There are eight tracks, six of which were supposed to be in service ((F) counted out), and somehow all six of them need repairs. What are the odds?
