I think the idea was to end the daytime bottleneck at Continental and run the trains straight-through to the terminals on the tracks they were on. The bigger problem with this is the E still would have had to switch at 75th otherwise nothing would have stopped at Sutphin/Hillside.

What they should have done was sent the E & G to JC, and the F & N to 179th. The only switching would have been at Van Wyck. Since the N service ended earlier, it wouldn't have interfered with layups on the Hillside express tracks. The E move could have gone to 75th around that time, with the G continuing to JC until midnight or cut back to Continental until midnight.
