Re: VIDEO: New R11's in service on Canarsie line

The renovation was more than just the headhouse. The original platform design had narrow ends, and with just the narrow original exit stairs, crowding had become a problem.

The uptown local track was realigned in order to extend and straighten that platform.

The downtown platform was also extended, and although it still has a narrow front end, local and express trains have different stopping positions which helps to alleviate crowding at the front end.
