TheKorean Posted September 9, 2014 Share #332 Posted September 9, 2014 Anyone know if Q planned service change (No train from CI to Prospect Park) is this weekend only or next weekend and beyond too? MTA told us for Atlantic Ave. split service. multiple weeks of service change, but sometimes its week to week with them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it will not screw up. I think it will, but it's sure gonna be a good test run for that new equipment. Before Sandy when they ran that GO it was usually pretty smooth. After and before the big closure when they ran it, forget it. Took me an hour one night to get from Atlantic to Cortlandt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abba Posted September 17, 2014 Share #336 Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) I'm sure maybe they did some test runs like that to make sure 3 lines can handle it.i mean it was closed for a year and that's I think the main reason why they closed it Edited September 17, 2014 by Abba 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The R160s perform superbly in the Montague Street tubes better then the R46 cars. The R160 cars are smaller then the conventional 75' car also they have a higher acceleration rate. That means R160s can nail the tight S curves in Downtown Manhattan at a slightly higher speed then R46 cars. Also it gives the T/O the ability to clear timers faster. Thats what I've noticed since the tubes were reopened. On another note it seems they shut off two timers on the Brooklyn bound so in that direction the trains now actually run faster then before the tunnels were shut down. Two GTs then a straight shot into Court Street from Whitehall. The ride is incredibly smoother too with epoxy tie panels. Not a bumpy ride as was before.

When the and cross over the bridge, they're *generally* still running express between Canal St and DeKalb & Atlantic. City Hall, Cortlandt, Rector, Whitehall, Court and Jay are all still *generally* considered as local stops anyway (since the local tracks continue through those stops mention). All they could say is both trains are running local between Canal St and DeKalb & Atlantic instead of "via the line" or "via the Montague Street Tube" (including the automated announcements on both lines). But whatever. Edited September 17, 2014 by RollOver 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alekr Posted September 18, 2014 Share #339 Posted September 18, 2014 Maybe it due to Manhattan Bridge inspection. They haven't yet done it since the tunnel shut down 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They handled that curvy line from City Hall to Whitehall very well. The longer R46s have a toughed time with that route. I gotta admit I really preferred the 160s over the 46s on the , but because the has the bigger crowds, it really needs them more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTA Dude Posted September 21, 2014 Share #343 Posted September 21, 2014 Wow, you should see the today. My proposals for the shutdown: Extra terminates at Forest Hills instead of going to Jamaica-179th Street. Increase service. trains, why you not helping? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollOver Posted September 21, 2014 Share #344 Posted September 21, 2014 You cannot short turn a line at a station on tracks that have through service at the same time. And before anyone says that the short turns at Bowling Green outside of both rush hours and middays, well, that's because ridership in the Brooklyn IRT is relatively low and to avoid running more than 18 tph on weekends. The cannot be increased due its merging with the and , and that more people will dump it for the expresses during daytime hours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
