You do realize that to get the to 8th Avenue you have to run them on the local track, and the definitely cannot share one track without delaying everything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgor Posted July 29, 2012 Share #1607 Posted July 29, 2012 Sorta changed it. Still the same problem. Check the track map. The are approaching from the local track, and the are approaching from the express track. The only way to send the to 8th Avenue is to have them interfere with the and cause delays. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brighton Express Posted July 29, 2012 Share #1610 Posted July 29, 2012 NEXT The uptown Local tracks on the from Coney Island to Bergen St are unusuable. The Culver Express track is usable from Kings Highway to 4 Av. There is also work being done on the middle track of the 2 Av station, allowing no trains to terminate there. Rerotue away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallyhorse Posted July 29, 2012 Share #1611 Posted July 29, 2012 The could potentially terminate at Hoyt-Schermerhorn Streets, but they have to use the switches at Utica Avenue. But that would cause delays, it won't cause delays if you terminate it at Nostrand Av. There are also (as well noted in my other scenarios) switches at the Transit Museum, but that would require clearing a train out of the museum so trains can terminate at Hoyt-Schermhorn and use the TM station to turn in an emergency. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What he doesn't realize that the Transit Museum is an actual museum that people pay to enter. He either wants to close down the museum for the duration of the scenario, or COMPLETELY SCREW OVER anyone who went to the museum to go see the trains. The old trains is a major component of the museum, and was the only reason that I ever went there years ago. If I went to the museum, paid my admission, and then found out that I couldn't see those old subway cars because some moron decided to reroute an active subway line to terminate there I would be FURIOUS. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was just once I would nicely point out why screwing up a functioning museum would not work. But this is every single freaking scenario when there's clearly an alternative way that's much easier, and people constantly respond negatively to his solution of it. By now he should realize that it isn't feasible and that we do not approve of such a solution. Even though most of these scenarios are ridiculous and crazy, this is basically a puzzle game and we try to come up with the most realistic solution possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubwayStation Posted July 29, 2012 Share #1625 Posted July 29, 2012 I think Wallyhorse sees this "puzzle" differently...He thinks the point is to run service as efficiently as possible (from an operations standpoint), not as logically as possible (from a rider's standpoint). That's why he'll say things that make sense from an operations standpoint, e.g. "Extend the to Brooklyn to serve riders", but that will confuse the hell out of riders. It's not that he's a foamer, it's just that he doesn't really understand the purpose of this thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
