Posted by #5 - Dyre Ave on Tue Mar 6 12:33:57 2012, in response to Re: Straphangers to MTA: Don’t cut (G) train extension !, posted by J trainloco on Sun Mar 4 21:14:16 2012. Perhaps splitting the current F into an F local/V express service from Jay to Church would work. Something along the lines of the Q/diamond-Q split used on the Brighton Line from 2001-2004. But combined F/V service would have to increase from the F's current 15 tph to 18 tph to make it really work and that would require the E to be reduced to 12 tph for the E, F and V trains to all fit on the Queens Blvd express tracks. The E is already limited to only 12 tph between Jamaica Ctr and Union Tpk due to the location of its crossover switch at JC. So the three E's that run to/from 179th would just become F or V trains. |
