Orion V 9441 Posted June 18, 2014 Share #980 Posted June 18, 2014 59th street because it is the only station with an unused platform (at least those that are served by trains). For the second, 34th street-herald square because it is the only option where all trains from a manhattan trunk line stop (all Broadway lines and all sixth avenue lines).

N6 Limited Posted June 19, 2014 Share #982 Posted June 19, 2014 Since nobody is going, I'll go. Canal Street 59th Street-Columbus Circle Queens Plaza Hint: Track Services And also: 34th Street-Herald Square Jay Street-Metrotech Franklin Avenue 59th Street-Columbus Circle Hint: Several Trains Serving One Branch First: 59th street. It's the only station where the Local and Express Services don't merge to cross the river. Second: 34th street, It's the only station with where the services don't split before/after/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreekyFreezer Posted June 20, 2014 Share #985 Posted June 20, 2014 First: 59th Street either because all the tracks south of the station. In Canal Street, there are tracks not in use in revenue service on both sides and same with Queens Plaza. or because there is no revenue service via a double crossover like there is at both Canal Street and Queens Plaza. Second: Jay Street because the and the split at behind both ends of the station, so the basically don't share a branch, but only one station with the Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since time has passed, I might as well tell. First: 59th Street because it is the only station where express and local trains are where they are supposed to be. Local and trains stop on the express track before switching to local. Second: Jay Street because it is the only station that doesn't involve the "Subway Shuffle". It is where two trains that serve the same branch arrive at the same time, then people try to catch the train that leaves first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion V 9441 Posted June 24, 2014 Share #998 Posted June 24, 2014 No, it is something regarding the location of the lines relative to the yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threxx Posted June 24, 2014 Share #999 Posted June 24, 2014 No, it is something regarding the location of the lines relative to the yard. The is the only line that terminates at the station closely associated with the yard it comes out of. Also, first post in months. Woo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion V 9441 Posted June 24, 2014 Share #1000 Posted June 24, 2014 Correct, all of the other lines must deadhead a bit from their respective depots in order to access the routes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
