The line south of Church does not need more service.And as others have said, an express that ends at Church really does not benefit many people. That's what you do when there's no place else to turn it, and in that case, they would just keep it at 2nd Av. (though it would benefit those using the transfer at Essex, but not many others than that). Making the V express, and the only line to go past Church might work, and eliminate the need to turn some trains at Kings Hway because of lack of ridership. Then, the F would always be local, and then continue past Church at nights when the V doesn't run. Still, the problem moves from "when the F goes local" to "when it continues past Church". But those who argue that the V is a service cut for the local riders, south of 7th Ave. they would have the option of the G and then having the choice of F or V at 7th. (Don't even know what they plan to do with Bergen lower at this point). |
