dustclee Posted April 8, 2009 Share #4 Posted April 8, 2009 Nice Astoria Express train, good catch! I wonder what the FIND displays said... I'll take a shot at this. It should show the usual stops, but it would go back and forth from the stop's name (like normal) and "Will Not Stop" in red, for the stations that it's skipping.

Myrtle Local Posted April 8, 2009 Share #8 Posted April 8, 2009 This is definitely rare, the train didn't even continue to Ditmars. I've been on a train that ran on the express track before only because it was heavily delayed but it ran to Ditmars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTR Admiralty Posted April 8, 2009 Share #9 Posted April 8, 2009 Nice vid! I'll take a shot at this.It should show the usual stops, but it would go back and forth from the stop's name (like normal) and "Will Not Stop" in red, for the stations that it's skipping. I'm guessing that they will show Queensboro Plaza then Astoria Blvd and then Ditmars Blvd. I think they have an "Astoria Express" routing that will allow for this to happen. Otherwise, they will just use the Will Not Stop feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenEleven Posted April 9, 2009 Share #10 Posted April 9, 2009 Nice catch. I guess it ran express due to construction or whatever. It looks like the ( though. (With its length of skipping stops) The should put those tracks to use as they can really provide more service to Manhattan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The was the Astoria Express when it was first introduced, didn't work out though. The track is still useful to have even though it's rarely used for revenue service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev5655 Posted December 30, 2009 Share #14 Posted December 30, 2009 The sometimes runs express from ditmars to Queensboro on my way home from school. But usually stays on the local track and they shutoff the FIND. The best part is the the conductor announce that it will only stop at Astoria Blvd and Q'boro AFTER they shut the doors and start moving. Its fun to see all my friends freak out and watch the train skip their stop. That makes my day. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
