I can see why they asked because for all we know they could be swapping subway cars/transferring subway cars to other yards. I personally don't think it will happen in this case but then again it has happened before when new changes came into effect (Speaking in general) so anything is possible.

Mysterious2train Posted February 20, 2016 Share #31 Posted February 20, 2016 According to the board meeting materials (Starting on page 132) - The fall pick (and the service changes) are currently planned for November. - The will run from 7 AM to 11 PM like it did pre-2010. Seems obvious, but I'm listing this just because service from Astoria starts at 6 AM right now, so that's roughly an hour in change. Just for comparisons's sake: First SB departs Ditmars Blvd: 6:02 First SB departs Ditmars Blvd: 6:53 (pre-2010) First NB arrives at Ditmars Blvd: 6:34 First NB arrives at Ditmars Blvd: 7:45 (pre-2010) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin Posted February 20, 2016 Share #32 Posted February 20, 2016 The will be the same like the , the 160s And to add, the last to Ditmars depart at: 10:20PM from Stillwell terminal 11:01PM from Ditmars Blvd, an hour before midnight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttcsubwayfan Posted February 20, 2016 Share #33 Posted February 20, 2016 They're banned from the and later the until further notice. Wait, why? I know they're banned from Montague, which precludes them running on the Broadway, but why the and ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel The Cool Posted February 20, 2016 Share #34 Posted February 20, 2016 Wait, why? I know they're banned from Montague, which precludes them running on the Broadway, but why the and ?

checkmatechamp13 Posted February 20, 2016 Share #35 Posted February 20, 2016 Don't get the whole need for Public Hearings, when essentially it's just re-branding of service, no new capital construction is necessary, and the $14 million was inevitably going to be spent as part of the whole SAS re-alignments. Were public hearings held when the previous 2010 service cuts were going to be reversed for every restored bus route or subway schedule adjustment? Sounds like just an excuse to spend additional money when there's not a substantial service impact on the commuting public. Just an observation. With those restorations, what happened is that they implemented the changes on a pilot basis (with the intention of making it permanent after the hearings). They also scheduled the public hearings at the MTA headquarters themselves, so they wouldn't have to spend the money to rent out a location to hold the hearing.

bstar1 Posted February 20, 2016 Share #41 Posted February 20, 2016 Yea because at least on Weekdays will return as Exp Manhattan 34 St until 59 St Brooklyn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysteriousBtrain Posted February 20, 2016 Share #42 Posted February 20, 2016 You know what could look nice imo. If the ran express on weekends as well, and adding more TPH on the those times.

Calvin Posted February 20, 2016 Share #43 Posted February 20, 2016 If the returns, does the short turn to Midtown-57 St change for the during the rush hours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j express Posted February 20, 2016 Share #44 Posted February 20, 2016 I wont be surprised if they ran the on weekends if the is cut between Queens and Manhattan once the goes to 96 St. It probably would run the same time as the extended to Astoria G.O.

CTK246 Posted February 20, 2016 Share #45 Posted February 20, 2016 Split Q service would have worked to and would have been better.Personally, I think split terminals are a bad concept. You'd be surprised at how many people end up surprised when they end up in Far Rockaway instead of Lefferts because they were too ignorant to read.

checkmatechamp13 Posted February 20, 2016 Share #47 Posted February 20, 2016 Those people in Manhattan would probably bitch about the split service especially those in Upper East Side and Astoria. Rightfully so. The MTA didn't spend a few billion dollars tunneling through bedrock to serve it with Rockaway-level frequencies (which would result in overcrowding anyway).

Javier Posted February 20, 2016 Share #48 Posted February 20, 2016 We have a problem though, and that's Whitehall St. The needs a new terminal to terminate at, or else we are going to have chaos just like we had in pre-2010. City Hall can be one of them, but I was thinking of sending the down the line to 9 Av during rush hours and middays, and the rest can terminate at either 36 St or Atlantic. And why does everyone keep saying the is coming back, IT IS NOT COMING BACK!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bstar1 Posted February 20, 2016 Share #49 Posted February 20, 2016 Normal Weekday service is also along 6 Av/53 St/Queens Blvd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOQV Posted February 20, 2016 Share #50 Posted February 20, 2016 Or you can send the W down the N line and have it terminate at 86 street Gravesend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
