darkstar8983 Posted October 8 Share #4077 Posted October 8 4 hours ago, Lawrence St said: I thought that was well received? It was a mess to operate in the beginning because of no CR boards / stop markers for the R179 8-car trains at the proper places along Concourse, temporarily restricting the service to R68s and R46s. But the route was also too long, infrequent, and local all the way, which Concourse Riders didn’t appreciate 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamen Rider Posted October 8 Share #4078 Posted October 8 It was also run on an “LS” supplement schedule… which means there was no supplement and trains were dispatched when the local supervisors thought it was a good idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know when, and don't know the source, but I even heard they're programming this in. For switch work at 59th. Don't know what the other lines will do).

BlueArrowProductions Posted October 11 Share #4082 Posted October 11 So if on 6th to 96th, I'm assuming on 8th? I can't see the alone on 8th. This would basically be a / swap between 59th and West 4th. Or and on 6th? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkstar8983 Posted October 11 Share #4084 Posted October 11 So probably to 96 St-2 Av and the cut back to 57 St-7 Av (or Brooklyn), or extended to Ditmars Blvd, concurrent with a closure 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I almost forgot about it while typing that out. Though, an A shuttle in that portion did happen so I added that in case transit plans to do that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll most likely be shuttle buses that are normally used when Trains terminate at 168th (168-207 via Broadway and 168-190 via Ft Washington shuttles) and have riders take the at 168 if they want to travel down south. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtroZ Posted October 12 Share #4091 Posted October 12 I suspect the to 96 G.O. could happen around mid November, the has a G.O. going on for two weekends in a row and it shows a transfer for the to Jay Street on the other, but for Nov 8-11, it only shows the . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT that would require skipping 135 in one direction or the other. and even then, sure, trains may turn there, but they might not be in service. We can and will close stations yet still keep the tracks in service and relay via those stations. I've had at least one D job where service terminated at 161st and we had to run light up past 167 to relay. There are times the A turns at 168, but trains have to go up to 181 because the 174th yard leads are out coupled with whatever is preventing service from running to 207th. In this circumstance... It is possible they could run to 145, discharge, run light into 125 to turn around, return to 145 and re-enter service there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueArrowProductions Posted Tuesday at 06:34 PM Share #4096 Posted Tuesday at 06:34 PM That explains why the has no scheduled work between 96th and 137th (express one direction), which is at least 1-2 weekends a month, as it would need to pick up the slack from the and . The MTA also noted more changes planned on this project in late December and January. Most likely the last weekend of December (28-29) between Christmas and New Year, to guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The late December is supposed to be a 24/7 G.O during the Christmas through New Year's Eve time frame (Not a shutdown G.O before anyone else asks) and the late night and weekend shutdowns will be back for multiple late nights and weekends in January. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueArrowProductions Posted Tuesday at 07:32 PM Share #4098 Posted Tuesday at 07:32 PM What is a 24/7 GO? I know in recent years the 53rd Street Line had GOs in the same timeframe during late December. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A G.O. that runs through a consecutive number of days without stopping.
