Daniel The Cool Posted August 9, 2020 Share #7126 Posted August 9, 2020 On 8/4/2020 at 1:47 PM, BM5 via Woodhaven said: Right now there's and trains going along 8th Avenue going wherever they're going (whether uptown or Downtown). Only 1 and Train went down via 8th Avenue during that mess. That Train went all the way to Euclid and the Train went via 8th Avenue to World Trade Center and went back Uptown via 8th Avenue all the way to Bedford Park Blvd. It all had to do with a signal problem between West 4th Street and Broadway Lafayette Street on the southbound tracks. Interesting though is that the Southbound Trains ended at five different locations during the whole mess before it was suspended entirely. Two went via West End to Bay Parkway, one turned at Prospect Park, then 2nd Avenue obviously, the one that went to World Trade Center and one turned at 34th Street-Herald Square due to the Broadway-Lafayette Street incident. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta admire how resilient the Queens Boulevard Line is with all these redundant East River tunnel crossings. I don’t think there’s much that could knock out the trunk. Crosstown Line down? Nothing happens to Queens Boulevard. 53 Street Tunnel down? via 63 Street, some via Crosstown Line, and to Whitehall Street via 59 Street if necessary. 59 Street Tunnel down? via 63 Street. 63 Street Tunnel down? via 63 Street, and some via Crosstown Line. When I look at what we’re building nowadays… one incident and the whole line is out-of-order. Go get a bus. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I look at what we’re building nowadays… one incident and the whole line is out-of-order. Go get a bus. The last time the QBL was knock out like that (suspensions) was in January. Now, the context of that situation was that a broken rail occurred at Steinway, and the express tracks were out of service. The Q32 and trains were basically putting in that work, because if I'm not mistaken, the was not running into Manhattan that weekend as well which made matters a lot worse. But yes, thankfully those are only a very small minority of instances. Also, on the weekends when the ran via Broadway, if something happened on 63rd Street, trains were simply rerouted via 60th Street. Same thing when other trunks are also affected. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsman Posted August 11, 2020 Share #7129 Posted August 11, 2020 While I favor streamlining the system to avoid conflicting train movements, which would mean no longer having regular QBL service on the 60th street tunnel, I can certainly appreciate the redundancy that is built into the system for emergency reroutes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxwell179 Posted August 25, 2020 Share #7136 Posted August 25, 2020 I feel like this reroute and service suspension happens at least twice a week : service is temporarily suspended in both directions between 96 St and Harlem-148 St /149 St-Grand Concourse because someone was struck by a train at 116 St. trains will operate via the line in both directions between Nevins St and 149 St-Grand Concourse. train departures from Harlem-148 St are suspended. Limited service will operate between New Lots Av and 137 St-City College on the line. Expect delays on the line and line while they share their tracks with re-routed trains.

Yikes, I don't know why people just think it's a good idea to destroy trains and ruin everyone else's travelling. 8th Av no trains running because of the derailment, 6th Av because of Track Maintenance, well the is running, but it's going to get crowded real quick, trains had to be rerouted via the . I think the list goes further than that, but that is just off the top of my head. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly doubt that politics played any role in this, and as such, I would only support prosecution that grave if a political motive can be credibly established. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
