metsfan Posted February 5, 2009 Share #1 Posted February 5, 2009 Can someone make a map of where trains usually pass each other without G.O. or delays etc? I know they sometimes pass at stations, but i just think it'd be interesting to see where you can see trains going the other way. - A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B41 Posted February 5, 2009 Share #2 Posted February 5, 2009 You can always look out the windows of the trains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R62A 1991 Posted February 5, 2009 Share #4 Posted February 5, 2009 All elevated lines, all portions of the original IRT (they don't have the barriers in between the downtown express and the uptown express). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metsfan Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share #5 Posted February 5, 2009 I don't mean for fanning purposes. I mean where do they usually cross paths when running on time. I know they have variations due to station dwell times being different in each instance, but there has to be a general "you can see the train from the train when the train goes past this station" kinda thing. - A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But from I noticed over the past years on the then on the Brighton, is the ratio of weekend trains. Saturdays: Between Brighton Beach & Coney Island, there's usually 2 Manhattan Trains for 1 Coney Island Train. Sundays: Between Brighton Beach & Coney Island, there's usually 2 Coney Island Trains for 1 Manhattan Train. The meet spot for those / these Trains was / is usually Brighton Beach, the Brighton El, or Ocean Parkway... O/T, I know on weekends, the Staten Island Railway 90% of the time, met at Grasmere & between Bay Terrace & Great Kills. Zach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metsfan Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share #7 Posted February 5, 2009 Thanks ! That's exactly what i was wondering! I guess all of the dwell times being different it tends to make it more random than not. I liked being able to see the ( from the . Saw a slant enter a station as we pulled away, then it caught up and it pulled in and opened doors as we closed doors, then we saw it no more, and then another tunnel, i think it was the broadway line(N) that i saw after that last station....... - A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest Glen Posted February 6, 2009 Share #9 Posted February 6, 2009 When trains approach West 4th street if you're on a F or V train you often see the C or E train, even though they stop at two different levels of the station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
