Which one doesn't belong (Subway edition)


Q43LTD

Recommended Posts

This won't be the case for long, but the 8th avenue line is the only one where all services runs local at some point during the service day. All others have services that never run local (the (3), (Q) (but not for long though it is the case now), (B), (D) and (5) trains). The (A) train runs local during the early morning, which is why this is the case until December.

Okay, so which line is the odd one out?

Both Rockefeller Center and 96 St stations, because while the local tracks come from the north, the express tracks come from a different geography at both stations, respectively.

 

There's only one odd one out.

 

Hint: It is what you didn't name in your last explanation.

The express tracks stretch the entire length of the 8th Avenue corridor, while the local tracks end at both 174th yard and WTC......

Is it correct or not?

 

8th Avenue. But not for that reason.

Remember we don't really need to look for the reason why you pick the line, we need to guess the right line. You can give the reason if you want, but we don't need the reason to get it right.

So rollover, you can go if you want.
