Where Do You Think the Stalled Train Went BIE to Cause This Reroute of B and D trains? |

Posted by heypaul on Tue Oct 1 06:45:46 2024 RerouteSouthbound A B C D service is disrupted while we investigate why a train's brakes activated near 59 St-Columbus Circle. Service Changes: Southbound B & D trains are rerouted via A line from 59 St-Columbus Circle to Jay St-MetroTech, then via F line to Coney Island-Stillwell Av. Southbound C trains are running express from 59 St-Columbus Circle to Canal St. Expect delays in southbound A B C D train service. Travel Alternatives: For local service along 8 Av in Manhattan, use the E train. For service along 6 Av in Manhattan, use F & M trains. For service to/from Grand St, take a northbound train or use nearby Canal St (N Q R W station) For service between Manhattan and Brooklyn, use 4 5 N Q R trains. Posted: 10/01/2024 06:34 AM |

Probably a B train leaving 59th blocking both the 8th Ave local track and the 53rd St B/D track. They won't be able to run all 4 lines down the 8th Ave express track without a massive backup. Maybe they could route all B/D trains down the CPW express track after dumping passengers at 125/145th, and have the A/C run down the local track with the passengers. Hold all the B/D trains on the CPW express track to get them out of the way and push them down their regular routes once they clear the BIE. This all depends on how long they expect this to go on. |

Never worked for the MTA, nor did I ever desire to do so. I'm just a retired subway rider.I was wrong to ask you if you worked in Command Center, just because you showed a knowledge of the trackage and rattled off options of how to work around the blockage. I think that your response came from a real interest in transit and an enjoyment in finding solutions to problems. And not just transit problems. |
