Guest Lance Posted June 25, 2012 Share #176 Posted June 25, 2012 So the MTA doesn't know the difference between their and there? That's pretty sad. You know what's even more sad? The fact that half of this forum probably doesn't know the difference either. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NX Express Posted June 27, 2012 Share #178 Posted June 27, 2012 Maybe a spur-of-the-moment decision to cover for a gap in service? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amtrak7 Posted June 27, 2012 Share #180 Posted June 27, 2012 Maybe a spur-of-the-moment decision to cover for a gap in service? The problem with this type of thing is that very few people get on the rerouted train because they don't know where its going. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Posted July 1, 2012 Share #181 Posted July 1, 2012 What happened on Queens Blvd earlier this afternoon? Worse than weekday rush crowds on the platforms and announcements that E, F, & R all delayed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrooklynIRT Posted July 2, 2012 Share #187 Posted July 2, 2012 Why were the speakers at Van Cortlandt Park saying about 1.5 hour ago that "because of a signal malfunction at Nevins St, there is no service between Manhattan and Brooklyn" when I came home and looked at MTA's site and it said "good service" for both the 7th Ave and Lex lines? Was it a speaker test or a message backlog or a speaker malfunction of sorts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GojiMet86 Posted July 2, 2012 Share #188 Posted July 2, 2012 I saw a delay message for all the IRT lines a while ago, but I never checked it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSubwayStation Posted July 3, 2012 Share #191 Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) @ Mysterious2train -- it would appear to be a power-related problem: Service Alert Due to power related signal problems at the Bergen St station in Downtown Brooklyn: There is no service in both directions between the Atlantic Avenue Station & Flatbush Avenue-Brooklyn College Station. There is no service in both directions between the Atlantic Avenue Station & New Lots Avenue Station. There is no service in both directions between the Atlantic Avenue Station & Crown Heights-Utica Avenue Station We have crews en route to the scene to correct the problem. Please monitor MTA Service Status for updates. EDIT: alright, problem fixed: Delays Posted: 07/03/2012 1:05PM Following an earlier incident, , , and train service has resumed with residual delays Edited July 3, 2012 by TheSubwayStation 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abba Posted July 3, 2012 Share #192 Posted July 3, 2012 MTA Service Info Service Change Posted: 07/03/2012 3:01PM Due to switch trouble at the Rockaway Parkway Station: Some canarise-bound Ltrain service terminate at the Myrtle Avenue- Wyckoff Avenue Station. Some canarise-bound Ltrain service terminate at the Broadway- Junction Station. Some canarise-bound L train service terminate at the Sutter Avenue Station. Some canarsie-bound L train service terminate at the Livonia Avenue Station. Please expect delays on the Canarsie-bound trains at this time. Is it really necessary to turn the trains at 4 different station.Why not terminate every other one at myrtle like midday G.O? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollOver Posted July 3, 2012 Share #193 Posted July 3, 2012 They should have just terminate the L at Livonia Avenue Station. 4 different terminals is not good at all IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lance Posted July 3, 2012 Share #194 Posted July 3, 2012 I think the idea behind all this is to get as close to Canarsie as possible (and utilize the CBTC functionality to the fullest). Since the Canarsie line does not have diamond switches on the eastern end of the line, they're still limited to how many trains they can terminate at a given station. For instance, if the Rocakway Pkwy-bound track at Livonia Av is occupied, the next train may turn at Sutter Av instead of waiting around and backlogging the rest of the line. And that continues so on and so forth until it gets to the pocket track east of Myrtle Av. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abba Posted July 3, 2012 Share #195 Posted July 3, 2012 I'm listening to the radio.there is no movement at all to canarsie.I think the need a new part or something . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainfan22 Posted July 5, 2012 Share #200 Posted July 5, 2012 My train stopped once or twice in the middle of the bridge for no apparent reason...why? Could have picking up track workers doing inspection on the bridge, they usually let them on in the front of the train though the storm door. Happened to me a couple of times over the years. Also track workers could have been doing inspection and the train had to stop to let them clear the way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
