True…only if F trains started at 21st Street.Since they don't, they're already crowded by the time they reach Roosevelt Island. I see two ideas: 1. Have Q trains run via the 63rd Street Tunnel into Queens. As to where to turn Q trains if they do this: * 21st Street is not an option. * Roosevelt is not an option. * Continental is not an option. * North of Union Turnpike is an option, only if E trains run local north of Continental. * North of Parsons is an option. * 179th is not an option. * Anywhere on the Archer Avenue line is not an option. 2. Terminate R trains at Queens Plaza * R trains run via Whitehall and run local to Queens Plaza. * R trains terminate at Queens Plaza. Transfer to G or V for continuing service. * Q trains run via Bridge and run express and via 63rd Street to 36th St/Northern, then local to Continental ISSUES: Terminating R trains might block E/V trains unless the R trains leave after the E/V train. |
