Posted by Michael549 on Thu Apr 24 12:31:26 2014, in response to Re: Overnight (Q) train service will make local stops in Manhattan (Canal - 57 Sts); 12/2014, posted by Lou from Brooklyn on Thu Apr 24 08:51:38 2014. Yes, prior to the Hurricane Sandy damage to the Montague Street Tunnel, the R-train made all local stops in Queens, Manhattan and Brooklyn until midnight every day of the week. Between midnight and 6am, the R-train became a shuttle between 36th Street and 95th Street every night.Ever since the removal of the EE train in the mid-1970's, then it was generally was the express in Manhattan over the Manhattan Bridge, and sometimes local or partially local in Brooklyn, however during the rush hours the N-train was express in Brooklyn. Whether and how the N-train ran local in Manhattan, express in Manhattan, ran over the Manhattan Bridge as an express, ran over the Manhattan Bridge as a local, ran through the Montague Street tunnel as a local - has changed with the tides & the needs of the MTA. Right now, the N-train is local in Queens and Manhattan (between 57th Street and Canal Street), uses the Manhattan Bridge, and is express in Brooklyn until the midnight hours - then it is also local in Brooklyn. Now that might change when a new tide comes in. (Smile) Mike |
