Abba Posted April 29, 2014 Share #301 Posted April 29, 2014 They did this G.O. a few years back since I was in Brooklyn that weekend. Problem was, they had both the and the turning at Franklin Av which resulted in many delays. I remember well 'cause I was on a and we were held in Eastern Parkway for about a good ten minutes. Are you sure? I think only the was. Anyways the weekkend of May 18 is gonna be crazy http://travel.mtanyct.info/serviceadvisory/routeStatusResult.aspx?tag=ALL&date=5/18/14&time=&method=getstatus4 Looks at all the routes being replaced by shuttle buses.Are they gonna really have enough buses? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S78 via Hylan Posted April 29, 2014 Share #302 Posted April 29, 2014 I'm positive. I remember being on an R62 that day. As for shuttle buses for that upcoming weekend, they'll be alright. They have buses come from almost every borough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted May 14, 2014 Share #308 Posted May 14, 2014 It's not permanent. It probably has to do with the station rehabs along the Brighton line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted May 16, 2014 Share #312 Posted May 16, 2014 The only times you'll see unusual equipment on lines (like the 62s on the 2 or the 142As on the 5 for instance) is when that line cannot access its home yard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainfan22 Posted July 2, 2014 Share #315 Posted July 2, 2014 That no 2 service between E180th and 149th GC is great. As the express shuttle buses travels on the highway between the two stations, its quite fun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
