Forgot about that!!

They would have to somehow use Chambers as the terminal, perhaps having the trains come in from/go to Canal Street for storage in the daytime (isn't the "local" track on the eastbound side at Canal Street still connected to the tracks for emergencies?) if not use the tracks that cut off just before the Manny B.

That could be done with the "Brown D" from Chambers-Coney Island via 4th Avenue and West End, with some trains stored at CI overnights and weekends for AM rush.

This also could be solved by re-connecting the Brooklyn bound track of the Manny B on the South End to the Nassau Line, which would allow for a Nassau Loop line that could run rush hours, using the tunnel to Manhattan (Manhattan bound only stopping in Brooklyn at Metrotech and Court Street) and then stopping only on the uptown track at Broad, Fulton and Chambers before returning to Brooklyn via the Manny B, with a single terminal used for such a line (9th Avenue, Bay Parkway or CI) since it would be a loop.
