mark1447 Posted February 11, 2009 Share #2 Posted February 11, 2009 Because for that you can use the and instead. And duding weekends they eliminate trains seeing that weekends there aren't many travelers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SevenEleven Posted February 11, 2009 Share #6 Posted February 11, 2009 Sometimes on the weekdays, the takes so long to come that two trains would pass by. By time the shows up, it would be lucky enough if it caught up to the second train. In Manhattan, the and can provide service on 6th Ave. For CPW, you have the running local, and the and occasionally. Even to 145th, the wouldn't be necessary much on the weekends.

Eric B Posted February 11, 2009 Share #7 Posted February 11, 2009 Give it time. If they build enough of those highrise condos near Brighton Beach station (replacing all the little houses) and it's not just older people or people who drive that move into them, then the demand for it might increase. You need more riders on the outer portion of the line (which would benefit the msost from express service). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres no need for service on the weekends. Exactly Man. Especially now that Avenue U/Neck Rd, are under reconstruction (and I heard Newkirk Av is beginning rehab), running even more trains along the Brighton Line, is not the best idea. However, I will say, that a weekend Harlem-145 St to Prospect Park service, can/should be considered by the . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Charles Posted February 12, 2009 Share #15 Posted February 12, 2009 By no means am I a supporter for weekend ( service. There is adequate service along the Brighton (provided by the ) and 6th Avenue (provided by the and -- come on, the only makes 2 more stops!) lines. The only time where it can get a bit annoying is on Central Park West. and trains come rather infrequently on the weekends. If they increase and service on the weekends, then there will absolutely be no need for ( weekend service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

via White Plains Road Posted February 12, 2009 Share #17 Posted February 12, 2009 The ( line should just be like the , run the same lengthed cars and same service. The should be 6 Ave. express and ( should be 6 Ave. local... That makes no sense....( goes to Harlem-145th Street and Bedford Park Blvd in one straight shot....and the goes up and down 6th Avenue on one straight shoot as well. When they get to 34th Street-Herald Square, the tower will have to figure out which train leaves 1st which causes congestion for the and trains.....again makes no sense for the to be express and to be local via 6th Avenue. Let the and stay excatly where they are! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres no need for service on the weekends. if you want to get those "crappy" R160s off the , then you better pray for weekend service. R160s are a lot faster than R68/68As. everytime an R160 and R68/68A depart a station simultaneously, the accelerates a lot quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Charles Posted February 13, 2009 Share #23 Posted February 13, 2009 why the hell are you using such a big number? Exaggeration??? To make his point??? All the 75-footers are quite comfortable. I hate it when ppl try to squeeze into a tiny space on the longitudinal seats of the 60-footers. Quite annoying, sometimes I just give up and stand up or find another place.
