Re: ''V'' to Euclid Ave

If you switch the V, you have to switch the F and C also, to avoid gridlock at W 4th or Jay.

So now you have V to Euclid with the A remaining as express to Lefferts and Far Rock, C to 2nd Ave (allowing it to be merged with the M as an 8 car train that doesn't cause trouble on the QB line!), and F to WTC.

This is nice in that now both IND lines below W 4th have access to both 6th and 8th, and the M can now go to midtown, albeit 8th Ave and not 6th.

The killer is that now Culver trains all go to 8th Ave. That would probably raise a major stink, and actually might make for even more cross-platform transfers at Jay St. If it weren't for that snag, I'd assume NYCT would be giving the idea serious consideration.
