Qns Blvd Dom Posted January 15, 2009 Author Share #3 Posted January 15, 2009 Nice.Let me guess. This is Late Night GO that send all to run via R line bet. Queensboro Plaza and Whitehall St, right? Thanks! Yes it is from that G.O. where the E go's down the R line from Queens Plaza to Whitehall St. It says Canal St on the posters however from some sources that I know it's really Whitehall St. That G.O. starts like around a little after 11:30 PM as I have seen a E going s/b along Broadway at like 11:55 PM by 28 St recently.

I was wondering the same thing when I heard it. The Good News is that nobody was confused when the train came into stations when the was announcement was playing. The C/R did make some manual announcements from time to time like @ Times Square and Lexington/59 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot, sum1 tell me!! T/O = Train Operator B/O = Bus Operator S/A = Station Agent C/R = ConductoR NYCT= New York City Transit [bUS/Train] MaBSTOA= Manhattan and Bronx Surface Transit Operating Authority [bus in Bronx/Manhattan] NJT = New Jersey Transit PATH = Port Authority Trans- Hudson MNR(Or MNRR) = Metro North Rail Road LIRR = Long Island Rail Road just in case others too dunno =)~ btw nice catch, although it WOULD be better to say , i think it says since it runs like a terminating in lower manhattan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattTrain Posted January 16, 2009 Share #18 Posted January 16, 2009 I'm going to admit, it's strange seeing an train going on BMT Broadway. What's more strange is that the R160A train is going on the "(W)" line? Yeah I agree, it should be via the , since it goes with the and not with the .

FamousNYLover Posted January 16, 2009 Share #21 Posted January 16, 2009 It should have said, "This is Whitehall St-bound train via line or Queens-bound via line. If MTA cuts W, and if still says via , it would confuse lots of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qns Blvd Dom Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share #22 Posted January 17, 2009 I'm going to admit, it's strange seeing an train going on BMT Broadway. I agree! I almost thought it was a N train when it was coming What's more strange is that the R160A train is going on the "(W)" line? Yeah I agree, it should be via the , since it goes with the and not with the . It should have said, "This is Whitehall St-bound train via line or Queens-bound via line.If MTA cuts W, and if still says via , it would confuse lots of people. That can confuse people however like I said somewhere else that there was no confusion along people when they heard it and thankfuly there was nobody in my car that was in need for Astoria. via BMT Broadway. Reminds me of the . B) Nice catch anyways. Thanks! The finally crossed into BMT territory (lolz) LoL! That G.O. happens from time to time on the late nights and in the event of a emergency as well. It should have said, "This is Whitehall St-bound train via line or Queens-bound via line.If MTA cuts W, and if still says via , it would confuse lots of people. Now that would be something that would make me laugh to the FLOOR when the W if it ever go's bye bye!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about it for a moment or two.....if the is running via 60 Street/Broadway and its terminating @ Whitehall Street.....it does make sense why it say this is a "Queens bound via the line" or this is a "Whitehall Street bound train via the line" since the runs to Whitehall Street during the weekdays!
