An M train extension on weekends would be nice, but since it would have to run minimally to Queens Plaza, that would be expensive, and they would lose all OPTO for the Myrtle Avenue line itself.I think this (and a weekend B) would be quite useful if they ran at 20 minute headways on weekends. The M could alternate an opto shuttle with a full length train for the Myrtle Ave portion like they do briefly in the early mornings. While countdown clocks would be ideal, a simple printed schedule at each station would be enough to alert users of the service. If bus riders can figure out 20 minute frequencies (or greater!) I don't see why subway riders cant. |
