Posted by randyo on Wed Jan 15 01:24:53 2020, in response to 1970 Employee "RR" Fourth Avenue Line Timetable, posted by Union Tpke on Tue Jan 14 19:47:19 2020. I recall those timetable since around the time of Chrystie, as an extra list Tw/M, I would regularly be assigned to the midnight at Astoria tower. The trains ran on approximately a 15 min headway well into the morning being on 20 min for a little less the 2 hours overnight. A similar pattern was operated pre Chrystie when the Brighton Lcls ran to Astoria. The last layup from the late PM arriving Astoria would lay up in one of the pockets in Ditmars station and became the first AM put in all 7 days. Of course on Sat and Sun the headway decrease started later than it did Mon - Fri. On occasions when a single track operation was in effect in either the Montague or the 60 St tunnels, supplement schedules had to be generated to started the 20 min headway earlier at midnight and holding it till 500 AM M - F or 600AM on Sat. In those days unless there was a severe emergency, general order reroutes or single tk operations were not done Sat night going into Sun or Sun night going into Mon. |
