TheSubwayStation Posted June 20, 2012 Share #1151 Posted June 20, 2012 NEXT Due to three consecutive incidents on the Lexington Av Line , Bowling Green, City Hall, and 125 St are all out of power.

BM5 via Woodhaven Posted June 25, 2012 Share #1155 Posted June 25, 2012 The Chambers Street station on the 123 is jammed in the position that local trains connect to the express tracks becaus of a 2 train using it. This is only the local track southbound. Also, the Montaugue street tunnel is flooded Brooklyn Bound, and the signal southbound at Canal Street is jammed making all trains reach the upper level of canal. Reroute the N Q R trains so that they reach their terminates without splitting it into two sections 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm i wanna try this one, From CI to Astoria via Whitehall Street all times [Rush Hours - Additional Q trains Originate at Whitehall street and Run local via Broadway to fix the gap left by the N] From CI to 36 Street via Express from 59 street all times - using the switch on the express track to turn around. (A new Timetable has to be created for the N so that it can sync in with the D and minimize switching delays if trains are on schedule. From 95 ST to Forest Hills all times Except Late Nights [Late nights - Trains Run from 95 Street to Queens Plaza utilizing the switch before Queens plaza in the Tunnel connecting to the 60 st tunnel.] [Morning Rush hours - Select R trains run from CI to 57-7ave via Sea Beach/4 Av LCL - Whitehall street Broadway LCL] After opening of SAS Phase 1: runs from CI to 96 Street Broadway Exp via Whitehall Street From Bay Ridge -95 Street to Astoria-Ditmars via Whitehall St Broadway Local. (Rush Hours - To meet the need of Astoria - a switch is created slightly past canal street towards the bridge so that canal street [bridge tracks] Can be used as a terminal (since the bridge is closed full time) . After the Switch is created Trains Resume service from the new terminal at canal street and run to Astoria via Broadway express to help the ). Shuttle CI to 36 st all times. [Also during rush hours Some trains originate at Canal Street and run to Astoria via Broadway express]. Extended to Forest Hills 71 AV - All Times (to supplement Loss of the R) Except Late Nights [Late Nights - Cut back to Court Square] Service unaffected.

Feel free to choose from the Broadway side or the 6th Av side being closed, and to include a plan of a bridge shutdown once SAS opens. Astoria must retain the same level of service it has currently. Lemme try both..... Broadway Lines: Rerouted via Whitehall Street. Rerouted via 6th Avenue Express. Late nights-via 6th Avenue Local. Broadway Lines+SAS: Rerouted via Whitehall Street. Rerouted via 6th Avenue Express, to Upper West Side-96 Street, all times. Please expect some delays on the lines. 6th Avenue Lines: Runs in two sections: Between Brighton Beach, Brooklyn and Whitehall Street, Manhattan, via the . Between Lower East Side-2nd Avenue, Manhattan and Norwood-205 Street, via the . Rerouted via Broadway Express, to 57 Street-7 Avenue. 6th Avenue Lines+SAS: Runs in two sections: Between Brighton Beach, Brooklyn and Whitehall Street, Manhattan, via the . Between Lower East Side-2nd Avenue, Manhattan and Norwood-205 Street, via the . Rerouted via Broadway Express and 2nd Avenue Local, to Upper East Side-96 Street. (Since it can't terminate at 57 Street...) Please expect delays on the lines. Just in case a Second Avenue Line runs via bridge (VERY unlikely...), (SAS) Rerouted via the to Hanover Square. Oh, and all of the service changes are at DIFFERENT times, not at the same time, that would be catastrophic, that just gave me an idea for a problem. I hope nobody starts up a fight because I included the SAS detour..... NEXT: Here's my idea. The Manhattan Bridge is shut down for some reason.....reroute the , and any other lines you need to, and also, include another plan when the SAS opens, like the previous problem. I'm pretty sure that this problem was already posted, but what the heck. Reroute away.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
