If you could change one thing about any of the 23 subway routes, what is it?

 

I'll start off here...

 

IRT A Division -

 

(1): same

(2): same but no limit service to/from New Lots

(3): same

(4): same but no limit service to/from New Lots

(5): same but no limit service to/from Nereid, Utica and New Lots

(6): same but all local between Pelham Bay Park and Brooklyn Bridge every time, no more Parkchester dropouts and no more <6> express

(7): same

Times Square-Grand Channel (S):

 

IND/BMT B Division -

 

(A): same but no limit service to/from Rockaway Park, all trains run between 207th and Lefferts/Far Rockaway

(B): same

(C): same

(D): same

(E): same but no limit service to/from Jamaica-179th Street

(F): same but no more Kings Highway dropouts

(M): same

(N): same but express between Lexington Avenue/59th Street and Canal Street, the BMT Broadway Line north of 57th Street-7th Avenue is also four-tracked under 60th Street, not 59th Street while 5th Avenue is design as a local stop.

(Q): operates at all times between 125th Street-2nd Avenue and Coney Island

(R): same

Fulton Street-Prospect Park (S): same

Broad Channel-Rockaway Park (S): same but operates with full length trains all summer long (not just summer weekends) and is six cars shorter at other times.

I disagree with the whole (6) thing... the express is very well used and such a change wouldn't be received well.

 

I think the IRT is fine, but as for the B Division...

 

(A): More service, maybe extra shortturns between Euclid Avenue and 207th Street.

(B): Weekend service between 2nd Avenue and 145th Street.

(C): Increased service on weekdays and weekends.

(D): Same

(E): Same

(F): Kings Highway trains cut back to Church Avenue to reduce route length.

(G): Full length trains, increased service, and some trips to Coney Island.

(J) / (Z): Service restructured to have some local (J) trips from Broadway Junction/Crescent Street to Broad Street to supplement service.

(M): Same

(N): Express in Manhattan.

(Q): Terminates at 57th Street all times.

(R): Same, but with increased service on weekends.

(W): Weekdays only between Bay Parkway, Brooklyn and Astoria, Queens.
