Was W3 supposed to be 95th - Whitehall St, or is there a secret SAS switch that allows 2nd Avenue - Astoria routing O_o

But 96 Street to Whitehall Street–South Ferry doesn’t involve Astoria at all.

I just realized there are no train programs to 14 Street or 215 Street, or 137 Street to/from South Ferry on an NTT.

[Javier]

I just realized there are no train programs to 14 Street or 215 Street, or 137 Street to/from South Ferry on an NTT.

Why in the world would there be a to 215th St program. And there is a 137th St program to/from South Ferry, I forgot to add that in there.

Was W3 supposed to be 95th - Whitehall St, or is there a secret SAS switch that allows 2nd Avenue - Astoria routing O_o

Um no...

 

From 96th St, the would go down 2nd Avenue then via the to Lex-63rd St, then down to 57th St-7 Av and switch over to the local track down to Whitehall St.

 

I also forgot to add the express variants but I'm sure you guys know whats express and whats not (I hope...)

There are some s that drop out at 215th in the morning.

Whitehall to anywhere on QBL is NOT possible via 53rd Street in any way shape or form.

Yeah, that one is odd.

Some trains in the late AM rush are scheduled to terminate at 215 Street.

Whitehall to anywhere on QBL is NOT possible via 53rd Street in any way shape or form.

I don't believe at some of the codings he posted.

[Javier]

That was a typo, my bad. I meant to write 63rd St but autocorrected to 53rd St (since I use that tunnel so much lol).

 

@Daniel, whatever. I'm just posting what I see in front of me.

[Tech And Transit]

While it's undoubtedly a clunky setup, a necessity due to the processing power of the computers used for these things, it's far from the code-punch setup you guys are envisioning.

 

This system makes much more sense than the code system that was suggested. The code system would make it almost impossible for conductors to filter out routes, which happens quite often.

 

And Javier, there is a shuttle program on the to Vernon-Jackson. The 34-VJ I'm not so sure about.

[Lance]

Agreed.

Like I said before, providing proof goes a long way to improving your credibility around here. Since I'm almost positive this list of yours exists in paper form or at least something tangible, you could take a picture of it and post it here, right?

 

This system makes much more sense than the code system that was suggested. The code system would make it almost impossible for conductors to filter out routes, which happens quite often.

It would also be a pain in the ass for conductors to remember which codes correspond to which route. I'm reminded of the 46s, which have cheat sheets for the most common routes on the , and because the full list of routes is so large.

 

Here's another installment of the routes I observed, this time from the and :

I thought that there would be more options... Only 4 options seems small...

[Javier]

@Lance if that's honestly what you think I should do, so be it.

 

@TonyBoy, no there's also the to Astoria, Coney Island, Coney ISLAND via West End, Times Sq-42nd and Whitehall.

I can vouch for the to Astoria and Coney Island via West End. There are videos of the announcements on Youtube.

And Javier, there is a shuttle program on the to Vernon-Jackson. The 34-VJ I'm not so sure about.

Didnt someone post a video of 34-VJ during the January Blizzard? Or am I imagining things.

[Daniel The Cool]

@Lance if that's honestly what you think I should do, so be it.

Not for nothing but why do you have a issue posting it if you claim its true?

Here's another installment of the routes I observed, this time from the   and  :

I really do wish people would pay attention. What I'm posting is a list of route options that I observed, either through what's posted here and/or on YouTube or during my own travels. I do not have a full list of route options like Javier claims to possess.

 

Also, while there are several route options proven through various means, I cannot verify their exact routes, which is why I haven't included them. Using the to Astoria option, I cannot tell from one announcement the exact route that option would take. Would it run through the Montague St tubes or across the Bridge? Is it a Broadway Local or Express? One announcement for a Ditmars Blvd-bound via the line is not sufficient enough proof or verification for me. When I get that information, I will include the option in my list.

That's nice. It does remind me that there is an option for the from Euclid Av to Bedford Park Blvd in the AAS, which has been added to the list above.

[Tech And Transit]

Didnt someone post a video of 34-VJ during the January Blizzard? Or am I imagining things.

 

I posted a video of the Vernon-Jackson shuttle program, which I believe is supposed to be used between Hunters Point and Vernon-Jackson, however the conductor activated it at Grand Central. I don't know of a 34-VJ.

I was just vouching for some of the routes Javier posted, since some of us were doubting the accuracy of his list.

[2 Train Master]

I do believe IIRC a to Continental or maybe it was the to Continental 71 Av also a to Far Rockaway

[Javier]

As per request from Lance to better "authenticate" the program list, here's the document version of the AAS systems route. Hence at the bottom you'll find a weird shuttle program from Prospect Pk to Brighton Beach. It's under the route section for some odd reason, probably a reroute of the Franklin Shuttle? The code for it is BS?15?N, meaning it's apart of the line.

I have seen a to 71 Av at Parsons Blvd (layup of course) but only caught a glimpse of it. It might've been a . But there is definitely a to Far Rockaway.

Thanks for the actual document, Javier.

 

If only that could get turned into a PDF...

[Javier]

Your killing me here AroundTheHorn...

 

In other news, I know I'm skipping ahead but the to Prospect PK announcements have been updated. They now say "This is a Prospect Park bound train via the line."
