Alex L. Posted December 13, 2010 Share #2 Posted December 13, 2010 Are all trains to/from 57 St completely express in Manhattan? No. The only N expresses in Manhattan should be those you listed as terminating at 57. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatOne2k Posted December 13, 2010 Author Share #3 Posted December 13, 2010 No. The only N expresses in Manhattan should be those you listed as terminating at 57. Shouldn't those four trains that begin at 57 St (S/B) also run express unless they are put in on the local track? It would decrease the need for switching later on. It would make sense to have any or train not going to/from Queens run full express (including skipping 49 St) on Broadway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRT Bronx Express Posted December 13, 2010 Share #5 Posted December 13, 2010 My guess is because the 60 Street tunnel is at capacity during the weekday rush hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
