nice but confused, why is the (2) going lcl to 96( I know construction, i belivie(, wouldnt it interfer with the (1) or:

 

-Going Express after 72?

-Turing at 103rd

- Going to 137th City College?

Only 96th St-bound (2) was express from 72nd to 96th St last stop.

I not sure about turnaround.

Turn around meaning it goes up Van Cortland line to 103rds M track then back downtown

 

This is what the (2) trains did, it switched from 4 track to 2 track and went up to 96 Street to discharge and dump so it would not interfere with the (1). After 96 Street, it switched back to 2 track and switched to M track to go back downtown.

 

 

On a side note, I actually did a smart thing. I was on a downtown (1) going to 14 Street. At 96 Street I changed to a (2). The (2) I was on beat the (1) at 14 Street despite the (1) going "express" after 42 Street!
