Haha! You didn't need to reroute the IRT lines! He said only the BMT/IND lines, though, I almost did that myself.

Due to a power outage, the Brighton Line between Atlantic Av (B)(Q) and Kings Highway (B)(Q), and on the 4 Av Line from Pacific St (D)(N)(R) to 59 St (N)(R), trains may not enter the stations, or use them as terminals. There is also construction on the middle tracks at 2 Av (F), so thats out of the equation. Have fun.

I didn't read!!! I saw "all lines north of 56th Street" and didn't see the "BMT/IRT" part!!!!! Ignore everything I said then about the (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7) service then. Service is normal on all those lines. I however can't imagine major flooding without at least the (4)(5)(6) going down the tubes.

NEXT: Because of a construction incident while building the 2nd Avenue subway, (F) trains cannot run through the 63rd Street tunnel. Also (R) trains are running in the 53rd Street tunnel and over the Manhattan bridge on 6th Avenue local because of an incident on the tunnel that connects the (R) to Queens Blvd.

 

To make it harder the (F) cannot stop or terminate at Lexington Avenue-63rd, or 57th Street-6th Avenue.

Here's a hard one, I think. The Sea Beach (N) has been neglected, and consequently the elevated structure just east of the New Utrecht Av station has collapsed. Unfortunately the structure has collapsed onto the (D) near the 62nd St station. At the same time there is a smoke condition on the elevated portion of the 4th Av-9th St station on the (F)(G) from the Culver Viaduct project. Reroute away, and please do so without having more TPH than what the Brighton tracks can handle.

 

 

(D)

  • Norwood/205 St - 9 Av

 

(F)

  • Jamaica/179 St - Jay St

  • Church Av - Coney Island/Stillwell Av or Bay Parkway

 

(G)

  • Court Sq - Bedford/Nostrand Avs

 

(N)

  • Astoria/Ditmars Blvd - Bay Ridge/95 St or 9 Av

Okay, it's the weekend

Because the switches to the (D) are stuck to go from express to local and vice versa before W.4 street, the 6 Avenue local track is Allfrozen to go with the 8 Avenue Local tracks southbound . The switch between the A C and F before and after metro tech are out of service. So please reroute

Also, (A) trains are going to B.116 street, so you have to send something to Far Rockaway

A wall collapses on the sea beach (N) line Rendering the coney island bound and express track useless from 8 ave to CI. There is also track work being done on the west end (D) express tracks. Due this being a very hot summer day , there is signal problems on the brighton line (B)(Q) and no Coney Island/ Brighton bound trains can enter or pass kings highway.

(B) No service b/w Church Avenue & Brighton Beach.

(N) Coney Island-bound trains via West End Line, some trains are extended to Sheepshead Bay.

(Q) Suspended.

 

 

They actually had this scenario happen like 2 years back (there was track repair on the sea beach line instead of a wall collapse) and they just sent everything via west end. Delays up the ass. And it was the day of the nostalgia R1 trip so that got delayed too.
