RollOver Posted June 11, 2014 Share #101 Posted June 11, 2014 The two identical variants only do about 40 mph at least. It's fast, but I also like to see 46 mph, which they do at some occasions, if it's a really good T/O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainfanrod Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share #102 Posted June 11, 2014 If we can we should bring the T to Atlantic Barclays Center on the R line or further the 4/5 take the hit in the mornings from LIRR customers BQNRD customers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T to Dyre Avenue Posted June 11, 2014 Share #103 Posted June 11, 2014 How would we bring the to Brooklyn when not even Phase 1 of the 2nd Ave Subway is open yet? T service isn't supposed to start until Phase 3 opens and we don't even have Phase 1 open yet. Put it this way, it's going to be a very long time before the T starts running, much less get to Lower Manhattan or Brooklyn. If the purpose is to relieve crowding on the and trains due to increased numbers of people transferring from the , , , and trains at Atlantic Ave, waiting who-knows-how-many years for the T is not the answer. Extending a small number of trains from Broad St to southern Brooklyn MAY be the answer. I say "may" because right now, there aren't enough cars for that service. There should be when the R179 cars have all been delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bstar1 Posted June 11, 2014 Share #104 Posted June 11, 2014 I think they make A run exp until aleast 11:00pm or 11:30pm. Instead of 10:30pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That also means its shorten version would have to run until midnight too, leading to extra crews which causes money. Aside from the weekday/weekend commute hours, ridership on the is quite low. There really is no need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude ridership isn't low on the between 59th and Broadway junction at those times for trains heading southbound, northbound its light ridership around that time, local trains are packed, hell the R32 A I was on last night was packed going northbound, the should run until at least 11:30-12AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, to see if they are really full to the brim which results in some people being left behind on the platforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted August 10, 2014 Share #115 Posted August 10, 2014 They really couldn't add more 2 trains because that would hinder whatever work that has the 5 suspended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RollOver Posted August 10, 2014 Share #117 Posted August 10, 2014 Whenever there's flagging on any line, running more service is never a good idea until the work is done. So it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
