Have you ever ridden the train to Manhattan because after that switch into the 60th Street Tunnel its a straight run into 59th.The R doesn't stop in the middle of the tunnel to switch. It still picks up speed (not as fast going Manhattan bound) and the only things slowing it down are a N or W in front of it and because the tower has to do the switch for the R right after the N/W crosses the switch to go above ground. And with small headways during rush hour, chances are that they have to slow down the R in order to do the switch, which is why you end up stopped in the tunnel on the R. If you take it at night (about 9PM) to Queens when the N isn't in front of it and has passed by at least 5 minutes before the R, its a fast run as the tracks are switched already. |
