Abba Posted July 22, 2019 Share #2776 Posted July 22, 2019 That’s not true . If a northbound gets to 36 when is leaving they make the wait outside 36st . Not the ramp but not in the Station either . They got better with southbound trains waiting outside 36st for no reason whatsoever. It still happens though sometimes. Anyway normal service resumes next Monday 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've used 4th Avenue every morning and when both the and arrive in the station at the same time, it's common for both trains to sit for a while before one of them gets the line up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abba Posted July 22, 2019 Share #2778 Posted July 22, 2019 Several times we were held beofre 36 while was crossing . I was never in situation where northbound trains just sit till they figure out which one is first . But I don’t go rush maybe it’s more common then . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway normal service resumes next Monday I’ve had trains coming into the station and platforming fully as the was slowly crawling out. It can definitely happen. How supervision decides when the can pull in is a mystery to me though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwwnyc123 Posted July 27, 2019 Share #2782 Posted July 27, 2019 I'm also surprised will run on CPW line replaces the for not running on weekends. They should probably do that now on weekends until 11:30pm and then to 96 St/2 Av until 1am, because CPW local stop riders normal daytime riders need the extra help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallyhorse Posted July 27, 2019 Share #2785 Posted July 27, 2019 This is something I had suggested before with the on a more permanent basis on weekends. As much as I think the SAS benefits from having a 6th Avenue option, having the run on weekends to 145/8 might be the better option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but it is something long-term I'd be looking at doing as it would give CPW riders local 6th Avenue service seven days a week (albeit with a different letter weekends as opposed to weekdays) and can be extended to 161 for Yankees games or other events at the stadium. Might confuse SOME riders but most would get used to having the on weekends as opposed to the on weekdays. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
