Posted by Michael549 on Sun Feb 11 18:54:52 2007, in response to Re: THE ORPHANS OF CHRYSTIE STREET, PART 1 THE RJ, posted by SelkirkTMO on Sun Feb 11 18:13:18 2007. Could some of the issues with the RJ train resulted from the fact that the RR/R lines did not have their own train yard until the Queens switch of the N and R lines? Yes, some R trains could travel up the Westside line from Coney Island or the current N route to reach 36th or 59th Street and then resume local R service, getting those same times to service 95th Street would be difficult.Maybe the whole RJ situation was not really about passenger service but in moving trains to where they are needed at certain times. The passengers simply take what's going their way. Remember that was in the days when train signage could be changed at will and at the same time was not a great emphasis. Today when the #2 and #5 routes use the same equipment on other line it is easier to tell what has happened. Just a thought. Mike |
