Oh I agree back when Chambers was the weekend (J) terminal (excluding GOs where the (J) ran to Prospect Park):This would be different, however, as the (J) would be terminating at Chambers full-time to avoid backing trains up at Broad since in this, the (R) would be a through-line going south (same reason I have the (R) on weekdays northbound in this terminating at Canal Street on Nassau except for yard runs that continue to Broadway Junction) and on late nights and weekends, the (R) would run from/to Metropolitan, absorbing the late-night (M) shuttles, so on weekends, anywhere between Myrtle and Chambers passengers can do a same platform transfer between the (J) and (R). It would in this case be set up so in most cases on weekdays, the (R) would be waiting at Canal for people to simply walk across the platform to transfer to for Fulton and Broad (and continuing to Downtown and 4th Avenue in Brooklyn) to while at Chambers, the (J) would be waiting across the platform for those continuing past Canal Street (or late nights and weekends, Myrtle Avenue or if the (R) in question is on a yard run, Broadway Junction). Splitting the (R) into a Nassau (R) and in Manhattan and Queens a full-time (W) train (with some (W) trains continuing to Brooklyn mainly because Whitehall can only turn about half of the (W) trains that would be in this. Oh, and the (R) in this would likely be a MAX of 10 TPH while the (W) would likely see 15 TPH total, with in a TWO-HOUR period 15 (W) trains terminating at Whitehall and the other 15 going to 9th Avenue on the (D) and terminating there (on weekends, all (W) trains would likely go to 9th Avenue). If more (W) trains are necessary from/to Astoria at peak hours, you can a limited number of (W) trains end and begin at Canal Street/Broadway (Tunnel Level). |
