Well, that is good. Then I'll keep on posting my wild ideas and you can keep telling me why they are wrong. LIONS like to hatch plans (in case you had not noticed) and him is not so concerned if they will work or not. LION already has timetables and such for his own subway, but has to admit that your layout is a bit more complicated.

Obviously if a train is full of rush hour passengers you cannot pull it out of service at 36th Street, so the train will have to make another round trip to Astoria, and we will sign it for 9th Avenue when it heads south will less gooses on it. If they will not change at 36th street on their own, then they can fumigated at 9th Avenue, and then the crew can take the train into the yard.

But what say you to my primary premise:

EXPRESS TRAINS run from 63rd Street via Bridge, and
LOCAL TRAINS run from 60th Street via Tunnel.

And keep your darn fingers off of my interlocking machines!

If this premise looks good then ASTORIA *must* be a local train since it can ONLY go to 60th Street. And if it is local via tunnel then logic says it must end up at Ft. Hamilton.

What is a LION to do about that? LION would wait until after 7PM to start pulling alternate trains off of the local, and stash them in the yard at 39th Street. And you have to admit, that making morning put-ins from 39th can not be all that difficult. It is trade off.

LION thinks he is trying to make Broadway more efficient and not less so.
