The service plan will be known when the train operators and conductors start picking jobs. The book comes out about one week prior. The run book comes out, each t/o and c/r picks a job one by one. This process takes upward of 10 weeks, according how many are picking per day and if they are picking on Saturdays.

Therefore you and everybody else will find out at least 4 months before implementation and if it's delayed you'll have more notice.

My opinion: Astoria will not lose service, all Q slots will be taken up by W trains terminating at Whitehall (Canal St. for post rush lay-ups. Q to 96th St. With the absence of R179's, car availability throughout the B division will be tight.
