NYCRailfan523 Posted September 8, 2012 Share #10 Posted September 8, 2012 Those orange M haters are happy... They must be fans and they want the M staying in the BMT Nassau Street Line. The V train is back! !!!!!!!! And the brown M train is back! I love how the is labeled as an express. (and many people confuse it for one if they don't use it...) I think it should be a diamond J rather than a Z in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowblock Posted September 8, 2012 Share #11 Posted September 8, 2012 Yeah but then you have the and the <J> and both of them are skipping stops so it's getting even more confusing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCRailfan523 Posted September 8, 2012 Share #12 Posted September 8, 2012 Yeah but then you have the and the <J> and both of them are skipping stops so it's getting even more confusing! The should never make skip-stops and the diamond J shall do the skip-stop service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted September 8, 2012 Share #13 Posted September 8, 2012 Just out of curiosity, the M was initially suspended before resuming modified service to Second Avenue. How does an entire line already in service get "suspended?" What happens to all of these trains that are already running and how do they get them back to "resume" service. Same thing happens on the B when there's a problem. That's a lot of rolling stock to simply put away in a yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ttcsubwayfan Posted September 8, 2012 Share #16 Posted September 8, 2012 I was always under the impression that all trains were held at stations until the delay cleared up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainfan22 Posted September 8, 2012 Share #17 Posted September 8, 2012 I was always under the impression that all trains were held at stations until the delay cleared up. Yeah but the and share a good portion of their routes with other lines. That would makes things worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamousNYLover Posted September 8, 2012 Share #18 Posted September 8, 2012 I was once on rush hour going Broad St-bound and it even stop at some stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel The Cool Posted September 8, 2012 Share #19 Posted September 8, 2012 Yeah The N/B over an hour late because of this. N/B Trains from what I've heard went via the Culver/6th Avenue Local (Mine went local all the way up to 205th Street Because of the delay in N/B Trains service). Yeah everything was pretty messed up, like wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bknightshadow45 Posted September 8, 2012 Share #20 Posted September 8, 2012 I was affected by this too. I was on the S/B train on my way to Coney Island yesterday afternoon that my train was delayed. My train took over 2 hours to get from 205th Street to Coney Island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donald Posted September 9, 2012 Share #21 Posted September 9, 2012 So you should have transfered to an A div. line. Anytime one division is all messed up, switch divisions and you will usually be totally unaffected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallyhorse Posted September 13, 2012 Share #23 Posted September 13, 2012 Apparently, this may be some sort of a ring orchestrating this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
