Metro CSW Posted February 22, 2013 Share #2351 Posted February 22, 2013 Man oh man, this weekend will be a nightmare for those 2, 3, & 5 riders. Had I not read Metro's post in the planned service changes thread, I was going to say why suspend the 3 when you can send the 2 to 148 St. Wow 4 different shuttle buses. smh, it needed to be acknowledged. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowblock Posted February 22, 2013 Share #2356 Posted February 22, 2013 Yeah after the last goes to Flatbush, the next couple of them go to Utica or New Lots before the evening Bowling Green service starts. The New Lots trains lay up in Livonia, the Utica ones lay up on the end block of the relay tracks. It's the reverse in the morning, with the first uptown (5)'s coming out of New Lots and Utica before the first southbound has a chance to get down to Flatbush. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmastropierro25 Posted February 22, 2013 Share #2357 Posted February 22, 2013 i honestly think that the line should have more R160 trains running on the line. i'm getting sick of the older version of the trains. this goes for the line as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted February 23, 2013 Share #2358 Posted February 23, 2013 There was some sort of issue this morning around 10:30 on the downtown 1. I think another 12-9. I saw a 1 train stopped half way at 86th while a 2 train was stopped next to it with a worker on the tracks saying something to the 2 line t/o. Either way the main problem was above ground when I needed the m86 to get thru the park. A bunch of fire trucks were blocking the road and we were stuck for like 10-15 min before the trucks finally started to move out. A woman on the bus thinks it was some guy crossing bw the cars and probably lost balance on a curve and fell. So I dunno how serious the incident was, but it seemed to happen pretty fast and recently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse Posted February 23, 2013 Share #2360 Posted February 23, 2013 Damn... So I guess the worker on the tracks was the 1 line t/o then. But yeah, I was surprised how close I was to seeing a pretty gruesome scene. I looked from the uptown platform when I got off the 1 train and didn't see anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse Posted February 23, 2013 Share #2363 Posted February 23, 2013 I don't see why they had to run express north of 96th, but I heard they had to be routed onto the express at 96th sb. But I was there only for a short time and didn't know what happened to the rest of the line after I left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The doesn't have any R160s at all. The "older version" you see on the and are R68s and R68As. You're just gonna have to accept it as they will be there of quite a long time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it happened again in '08 when the 142s were being serviced. I could be wrong though so don't quote me on this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
