Hi Randyo, you are actually right, there are very few midnight hour express routes running in Manhattan or the other boroughs. Since most of the Manhattan subway lines during the midnight hours are often reduced to all local service - I believe only the #3, D and Q trains run express midnight hours because those routes are easier to operate that way.Concerning the message that I was replying to, I really do not see a reason for the proposed all local midnight hour W-train, an express midnight hour N-train, and a midnight hour express Q-train. Something like that has not been a pattern of the MTA for a long time. Even during the 1970's before the rounds of fiscal crisis budget cuts, most of the Manhattan subway lines were reduced to one midnight hour local route, and a midnight hour express route. Only the Queens Blvd line had the full-time GG-train, and the midnight hour E and F express trains. Even the Brooklyn 4-th Avenue line was reduced to two lines, the N-train, the RR, and the B-shuttle train. Just my thoughts. Mike |
