N-Trizzy2609 Posted July 27, 2008 Share #3 Posted July 27, 2008 Wow, looks like they might bring more service. One thing I wanna know, is it true the first 3 (W)'s and last 3 (W)'s run down the Sea Beach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superdotny Posted July 27, 2008 Share #4 Posted July 27, 2008 Probably yes. The Whitehall stop is pretty congested already. The Sea Beach line has some gaps for the (W)s from Kings Highway, Stillwell, and Gravesend-86th. There are about 2-3 (W)s running via Sea Beach. That's what I think, but I might be wrong.

Yes it is true that the first 3 sets of runs local from Kings Highway via Whitehall and then into Queens in the morning. In the evening it's the other wya around. the last 3 sets of go to 86th St. or Kings Highway again via Whitehall. It does not go all the way to Stillwell so it doesn't have to waste time backing and laying up. It is also a way for 4th Avenue Riders to go to Sea beach on the local tracks, without transfering. The trains are mostly R160B becuase they are supplement from the Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pelham Bay Dave Posted July 29, 2008 Share #17 Posted July 29, 2008 It looks like they messed up extending hours on the Line. There is something that everyone overlooked including me. Since trains are running local along Central PK West after 9PM its making it hard for the Garbage train to pick up the local stops. So they picked the Express only but that rerouted service on the Local with the service so first night the road got jacked up at 9PM and also there is a another Garbage train the Picks up along 6 AV which made the Delays on the Brooklyn Bound service worst since trains were added to the mix. Hopefully the figure something out for the rest of the week / Pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
