Posted by GP38/R42 Chris on Sun Apr 15 22:05:31 2012, in response to Re: Rush hour J to 9 Av, posted by VictorM on Sun Apr 15 21:51:48 2012. Again, LOL..."eliminating" the V is called the M/V combo, the Orange M, which is exactly what we have been saying. The "V" was NOT eliminated, it was just given shorter trains, and name changed and called "the M". The entire V line is still in operation with the exception of one station, 2nd Ave, is called the M, and with the same amount of trains, but shorter trains. The old V trainsets were the equivalent of 10 car 60 foor trains, which when transferred and traded now operates with 8 car 60 foot trains. For every V train that ran, an M train now runs with a shorter train, allowing the equivalent of 2 60 foot cars to become surplus.And again, that doesn't include all the surplus equipment that was left over from the old Brown M between Essex St and Bay Parkway. |
