125th / Lex


Proposal for weekday (6) branch to Burnside Av, with (5) / <5> to re-routed to Pelham Bay Pk.

(6) would short-turn at Parkchester on weekdays when (5) / <5> are operating.

<4> service in the peak direction between Burnside and 125th on weekdays.

...Why? this doesn't make any sense.

What would run the Dyre line?

Where would the 5 be based?

Good questions and not well thought out.

I suspect he's thinking that perhaps the (2) is split between 241 and Dyre OR we see a revival of the original (9) train that would be a shuttle between Dyre and E180.  Also I I suspect he thinks it would be better for the (6) to serve the Jerome line because the (5) can be straight-railed at 125 to Pelham.

this is all aside from the fact Burnside is TERRIBLE for this. In the PM, the only way for a 6 to terminate at Burnside and return to Manhattan would be A: run light up to Kingsbridge Road and relay there or B: have to squeeze through the center express track while the 4 is trying to use it. Parkchester has a full interlocking complex on one side, Burnside doesn't. You can cross between Express and local... only after you make the station stop.
