I could've sworn that for the whole week, all of those trains were signed up as trains. But I can see why passengers got confused, all of the countdown clocks along Nassau still displayed trains to both Broadway Junction and Essex St, when a train would actually pull into the station. And to whoever said that my idea would only confuse people more, it's the opposite. This would make this G.O a lot more easier to understand. Take a look at these planned service changes poster I made compared to the real one: My plan: No trains between South Ferry & East 180 St Weekend, March 30th to April 1st trains and free shuttle buses provide alternate service. trains operate between Dyre Av and East 180 St, the last stop. trains make all stops between South Ferry and 96 St, running local. Some 242 St-bound trains will end at 137 St. trains make all stops between 241 St and 149 St-Grand Concourse. *No trains at this time. Their plan: No trains between 96 St & East 180 St Weekend, March 30th to April 1st trains and free shuttle buses provide alternate service. trains operate in two sections: Dyre Av to East 180 St 96 St to South Ferry, running express between 96 St & 34 St-Penn Station. trains make all stops between 241 St and 149 St-Grand Concourse. *No trains at this time. You tell me which is more confusing. Your plan is less confusing than their plan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainfan22 Posted April 7, 2018 Share #1963 Posted April 7, 2018 Cararsie bound trains are stopping on the Manhattan bound platforms from Lorimer to Myrtle due to something happening at Montrose Ave, my train is stuck at Atlantic Ave and was stuck between stops earlier. I would cut and paste the service advisory but I'm on mobile. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence St Posted April 11, 2018 Share #1964 Posted April 11, 2018 Looking at the planned service changes for May, it seems like the first weekend after service returns to normal, there's a G.O that says "Forest Hills-bound and trains run express from Jackson Heights to Forest Hills". I'm guessing there's a G.O missing That's knocking out on QBL? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted April 16, 2018 Share #1975 Posted April 16, 2018 It's because of the explanation on why. Note that the two service changes quoted above are in place for two separate reasons. As for riders not caring about why these service changes are in place, I'm going to respectfully disagree. In fact, some riders would likely prefer more information as to why their service is being rerouted beyond these generalized headers. That way, they know something is actually being done and the MTA isn't just rerouting service randomly for shits and giggles. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
