If you mean run them through Coney Island then please check the track map to see why that's not going to work.

 

 

The (N) works, southbound trains can use the (Q) platform, and the (D).....not ALL of them go to Church, only some, but both of them have to use the same track for a sec, but they're probably not going to come at the same time.

lol, quite possibly? :rolleyes: Somebody post a new scenario, and a HARD one! I'm in the solution making mood! :)

 

 

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) No trains between 9 Av and Bay Parkway.

(Q) 10 additional tph operate between 57 St and Coney Island. These trains run through Coney Island, become (N) trains, and run to Kings Hwy (N).

 

(F)(G) No trains between Bergen St and Church Av.
