They have had G.O's where the M ended at 57th while the F was using it as a though station.. I think they can pull it off in the PM after the rush if F headways at the time is a same or longer than the weekend F. |

St."In early 2014 I took a Queens bound F which pulled into the station as soon as the M left going southbound on the Queens bound track. CI bound F trains were running thru 57th as well. There were platform conductors to advise passengers of changes but of they were standing around talking to each other rather than their job. |

My answer was based on the info in "Current Service Status" at the time I arrempted to answer the question. It is to continue till Thursday evening.Why it is not noted on your link is beyond my control. |

M service is to be cut back to Essex Street due to a GO (Roadbed replacement) on Queens Blvd south of Van Wyck/Briarwood on D2. GO begins at 2200 hours (10PM) until 5AM beginning yesterday, Monday, for three nights. Looks like M service may have been cutback a little early. |
