Recommended Posts

Good evening everyone,

 

Did anybody hear about any issues on the (F) this afternoon? Otherwise, is there a site that keeps record of past (MTA) service status updates that are issued?

 

SPS

I saw an (M) being sent up 63rd yesterday at around 5:30-6pm but that's about it. It wasnt exactly spur of the moment either the C/R was making announcements from 34th Street on up, I heard it from the (D) I was on.

Due to a rail condition at Sutphin Blvd, northbound f.png trains are terminating at Forest Hills-71 Av and northbound e.png trains are terminating at Kew Gardens-Union Tpke.

Free shuttle buses are available at the affected locations.

 

Too bad this is a weekend when E trains are suspended between Van Wyck Blvd & Parsons Blvd/Archer Ave so there is no subway service on either Hillside Ave or Archer Ave.

Due to a train with mechanical problems at Myrtle Av- Wyckoff Av, there is no (L) train service between Canarsie- Rockaway Pkwy and Myrtle Av- Wyckoff Av in both directions.

As an alternate customers are advised to take the (C) train to Rockaway Av and transfer to B60 buses running to the Rockaway Parkway Station.

In both directions, (L) shuttle buses have been provided, making corresponding stops from Myrtle Av- Wyckoff Av to Canarsie- Rockaway Pkwy.

Customers can also take the (3) train to/from Junius St for service.

Allow additional travel time.

 

 

Any more details? Must be big for the MTA to call out the shuttle buses.

It was just starting as I was finishing up. Then, I stopped at a couple of stores, and an hour later, passed by Wyckoff and saw the bus loading at the station house just like a weekend GO.

 

What in the world happened? Is it really mechanical problems, or a derailment or something?

i got caught in this mess at broadway junction. What a mess it is with the shuttle buses. A person in the station yelling in a megaphone and telling everyone to go the corner to find buses. The bus at that corner was going to canarsie with a few mta employes trying to do crowd control with lots of buses whereas the one for wyckoff was down the street on a different corner with no mta employees and only 1 bus there.
It will be better if the mta people can at least help people figure out which bus goes where without asking the bus driver :(

 

Having a makeshift signs attached to posts/streetlights is always a lot better then having employees who dont really want to help people

Ongoing signal problems between Myrtle Av-Wyckoff Av & Broadway Junction will likely impact service on the l.png Line into the morning peak period on Friday.  The following service changes will be in effect:

 

There will be no l.pngtrains between Broadway Junction and Myrtle Av- Wyckoff Av in both directions.  Shuttle buses will operate making corresponding stops between Myrtle Av-Wyckoff Av and Broadway Junction.

 

There will be limited l.png train service running between Canarsie-Rockaway Pkwy and Broadway Junction.  At Broadway Junction, customers can transfer for a.pngc.pngj.png or z.png trains for further service into Brooklyn and Manhattan.

 

There will also be reduced service between Myrtle Av-Wyckoff Av and 8Av in Manhattan.

 

Crews are on site working to restore normal service as quickly as possible.

 

Customers should allow additional travel time and monitor service status on www.mta.info for updates.

This bustitution will probably need all it can get. Expect MTA Bus.
