"14th/6th gets only one train per 20 minutes late nights, even though it is the junction with the L, which is very busy late nights."So?? The connection between the L and G-train at Lorimer & Metropolitan Avenues during the midnight hours is one train every 20 minutes for both the L and G trains. The connection between the #2 and the #4 at 149th Street & Grand Concourse during the midnight hours is one train every 20 minutes for both the #2 and the #4 trains. The same situation exists for the #7 and the N-train at Queensborough Plaza - 20 minute waits between trains. The same situation applies for the Broadway Junction - where J-trains, A-trains and L-trains are all running 20 minutes apart. Since the 42nd Street Shuttle no longer runs during the midnight hours - it is a 20 minute wait to go from Times Square To Grand Central Station by the #7 train! Passengers bound for Brooklyn and Queens J-train stations had to endure 20-minute waits between trains for connections to the #4-train, the #6-train, and F-train, and so on - for decades. Each of these places can be pretty busy during the midnight night hours. Mike |
