duelingdragons Posted March 26, 2009 Share #7 Posted March 26, 2009 It's so funny how they're raising rates AND reducing service. Corruption at its finest. What a joke. I can't believe they're getting rid of the . The , eh, I sorta get, but not the . Unbelievable. This infuriates me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrtle Local Posted March 27, 2009 Share #8 Posted March 27, 2009 operating the N local in Manhattan north of Canal Street So it appears the will be handling the Canal Street local station, City Hall, Rector St and Whitehall Street on it's own. Like I figured, the will still take the Manhattan Bridge to and from the city and switch to the local track after the Canal Street express stop.

I have to agree with you, the ballpark is really close to the ferry terminal. IMO, that short stretch of track from St George to the Ballpark shouldn't even cost $2.

Amtrak7 Posted March 29, 2009 Share #21 Posted March 29, 2009 Does this mean abandoning the SIR Ballpark station? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripleeye49 Posted March 29, 2009 Share #22 Posted March 29, 2009 The (N)'s service pattern will now be 24/7. Local in Queens and Manhattan, goes over the bridge after Canal Street, then runs express. I still say run the Local as well but via the tunnel, and make the run express in Manhattan and Brooklyn going over the bridge and via 63rd Street.

I still say run the Local as well but via the tunnel, and make the run express in Manhattan and Brooklyn going over the bridge and via 63rd Street. Now why would that make sense? All these service changes is enough. And making the local via Tunnel would not be good for the Brighton customers. EDIT: This is my 400th post!

Bdwy Line C/R Posted March 30, 2009 Share #25 Posted March 30, 2009 Most obvious and conspicuous is the absence of the (Vacant) line on the hit list. Queens gets a pass...... again. ( doesn't count) :mad: Glad I don't live in NYC anymore. Most of us in here in NJ/PA have had to deal with sparatic bus/rail service for a long time. NY'rs have been spoiled for much too long and have always been chronic complainers.:cry: The only big city in the country with 27/7 service. BOO HOO. Try living in Bost, Philly, DC/Balto metro where the transit system shuts down after midnite. Long may you run (NJT) :nec: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
