True…only if F trains started at 21st Street.

Since they don't, they're already crowded by the time they reach Roosevelt Island.

I see two ideas:
1. Have Q trains run via the 63rd Street Tunnel into Queens.
As to where to turn Q trains if they do this:
* 21st Street is not an option.
* Roosevelt is not an option.
* Continental is not an option.
* North of Union Turnpike is an option, only if E trains run local north of Continental.
* North of Parsons is an option.
* 179th is not an option.
* Anywhere on the Archer Avenue line is not an option.

2. Terminate R trains at Queens Plaza
* R trains run via Whitehall and run local to Queens Plaza.
* R trains terminate at Queens Plaza. Transfer to G or V for continuing service.
* Q trains run via Bridge and run express and via 63rd Street to 36th St/Northern, then local to Continental
ISSUES: Terminating R trains might block E/V trains unless the R trains leave after the E/V train.
