Snowblock Posted November 4, 2012 Share #526 Posted November 4, 2012 I took the 4 to and from Manhttan tonight. going from Brooklyn to Manhttan the train crawled through the tube.However on the way back it zoomed through it like nothing ever happened. Yes, we had signal workers in the Manhattan-bound tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abba Posted November 4, 2012 Share #527 Posted November 4, 2012 Snowblock when did the 5 run split service.i just came home an hour ago and I saw a 5 at Bowling Green.Also was the signal work related to the hurricane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulrivera Posted November 4, 2012 Share #528 Posted November 4, 2012 Half of the 2's midnight crew are getting sent over to Dyre in order to maintain service again, and many of the PM crews are racking in the OT for haivng to do an extra trip. Most of you seem to be forgetting that you actually need the CREWS to run this extra service. This is just one of the MANY reasons that you won't be seeing any 's to New Lots. SO DROP IT. *NOW*. Assuming they indeed run full service on the East side: If the and don't resume through service to Brooklyn on Monday, should I expect some train runs in particular to be missing due to lack of crews, since extra trains would be needed to fill in?

Snowblock Posted November 4, 2012 Share #529 Posted November 4, 2012 It was earlier this evening, between 8-11PM. Some of the 's got turned at the Brooklyn Bridge loop and sent back uptown because Flatbush knew that they wouldn't have anybody to take those trains, and for a while Dyre was only doing shuttles to E180 and Flatbush shuttles to Atlantic. 5's started running full service to Flatbush out of Dyre again starting with the 10:45PM interval. I don't know what the signal maintainers were doing, but it's safe to assume it was related to the hurricane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East New York Posted November 4, 2012 Share #530 Posted November 4, 2012 Please keep the fantasy shit out of this thread. This thread is not a "what I would do thread. This is for factual information to keep everyone up on whats going on. At this point in time I think all fantasy threads should be banned anyway. They get too out of control, and its a waste of forum space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Far Rock Depot Posted November 4, 2012 Share #531 Posted November 4, 2012 In reference to the G, the MTA tweeted a few hours ago that the Greenpoint tube under Newton Creek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintonhill121 Posted November 4, 2012 Share #532 Posted November 4, 2012 Hi all- I don't know much about the subway aside from how I use it daily. Just trying to get some information. Can anyone tell me when the G train might start running again and why it is still suspended? Is it because of the water it crosses to go to Long Island City? I hope we get it back soon since I've been walking to Jay st every day this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6 Lexington Ave Posted November 4, 2012 Share #533 Posted November 4, 2012 Is the running as of now, or has it run at all? UPDATE: Service Change Posted: 11/04/2012 3:46AM Limited trains will operate between the 205 Street (Bronx) and the Bay Pkwy Station in both directions.

Abba Posted November 4, 2012 Share #534 Posted November 4, 2012 Also the 1,2 and 3 trains are back.the will just go to 14th.the it says is going to 42nd not sure if that will change in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6 Lexington Ave Posted November 4, 2012 Share #535 Posted November 4, 2012 Any reason why the wasn't able to restore service on the yesterday? (just curious, since, obviously I won't be using it...) What's the status for the ? What about 207th street? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazer Posted November 4, 2012 Share #536 Posted November 4, 2012 So many people Bailed at Lexington Ave, they had enough! lo.l I bailed at 57th st. So many people "bail" at Lexington Ave even on a normal day. You must not take the F train much. All trains going from Queens to Manhattan (N,Q,R,7,F,E,M) people "bail" at the first stop in Manhattan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazer Posted November 4, 2012 Share #537 Posted November 4, 2012 Are those 's from Parsons Blvd. 8 or 10-car trains? like Snowblock said, they are 8 car trains. Some have electronic signs turned off with "M 34 St to Jamaica Center" posters in window while others have electronic signs as "M to 71 Ave via 63St" with conductor announcements saying it is running to Jamaica Center. I have seen R46 F trains with electronic signs to 34St and some as S Shuttle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTOMan Posted November 4, 2012 Share #538 Posted November 4, 2012 The way the tracks are set up, once the IRT West Side can run again Chambers and north, it would make sense to run the 1 to New Lots since running the 4 requires a crossover and you have to turn the 1 around somewhere. 3 train Service Kills that Idea... As of now.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTOMan Posted November 4, 2012 Share #539 Posted November 4, 2012 To the People who are biitching about Q service, SHUT THE HELL UP! BE GLAD THE MTA IS DOING THEIR BEST to bring back service, SO BE GREATFUL, WE JUST GOT HIT BY A DAMN HURRICANE, the F--- is wrong with some of you guys, the people in the rockways lost everything and won't have subway service until next year and people are whining about Q service, the hell is wrong with you people, don't YOU GET BRIGHTON is in ZONE 1, so of course it got water damage, i would rather wait then rush service knowing that the signals and rails may be damaged The constant bellyaching from some of these folks disgust me...

m7zanr160s Posted November 4, 2012 Share #540 Posted November 4, 2012 Had an adventure last night at around 9 - 10pm. I go to Herald Square to go home and I see a 14 or 15 - car R160 pushing a 8 - car 160 south into the station on the northbound local track. Basically, a 22-car train, at least. I couldn't get a full count because the train was so long it was still partly in the tunnel, and my train arrived on the south-bound local track. Then, I get on that only to be sent down the 53rd st. tube to face signal problems before we even get to 5th av/53rd st. We were stuck for about an hour before we could reverse back into Rockerfeller Center. Everyone had to get off and take the next . By the time I got to my bus, I had to pay another fare; no transfer.

Mysterious2train Posted November 4, 2012 Share #542 Posted November 4, 2012 Is the running as of now, or has it run at all? The did briefly start running yesterday, but it was suspended as quickly as it was re-started. Really weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lance Posted November 4, 2012 Share #543 Posted November 4, 2012 Also, funny how there's a to Far Rockaway program, but no to/from Jamaica Center. Seems to be a running theme: reroute options that will likely never see the light of day exist, but ones that are well within the realm of possibility are for some reason, absent.

Q43LTD Posted November 4, 2012 Share #544 Posted November 4, 2012 What about the to 179 St? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious2train Posted November 4, 2012 Share #545 Posted November 4, 2012 The has been restored in full as per the MTA's site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric B Posted November 4, 2012 Share #546 Posted November 4, 2012 The on the Queens corridor is still new, and occasions like this hadn't been happening, so it will take time for them to add them. Now, after this, they will probably add Jamaica Center and 179th. The has always been on the IND uptown, and also faced various changes to its southern route, so I guess they decided to throw that in there. (Not sure why they thought of that bafore even the to Euclid). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quill Depot Posted November 4, 2012 Share #547 Posted November 4, 2012 During 2010 the very briefly stuck in alternatives for the Orange , they'll come as Eric B said. The is still running to Jamaica Center but somehow running Queens Blvd Express while the takes local. Any explanation why? Okay, the service changes of the morning. trains run local service from 242nd Street to 14th Street. trains are back up! trains are back up as well! trains are back but they run to New Lots. trains run a shuttle from Dyre Ave to E180. trains are back up, with delays. trains are back up! GCT-TSQ is back up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
