Posted by #5 - Dyre Ave on Fri Dec 25 15:55:30 2009, in response to Future expansion wish list?, posted by rbseabeach on Wed Dec 23 13:49:32 2009. Here's what I'd like to see:- T train from Dyre Avenue to Broad Street via Amtrak's Northeast Corridor and 2nd Avenue (yes, the same Broad Street the J and M trains use). - Q train from 125th Street-Broadway to Coney Island via 125th Street, 2nd Avenue and 63rd Street. - F train from 179th Street to Coney Island rerouted onto a double- track Super Express from Continental Avenue to the 63rd Street tunnel. - V train rerouted to Queens Boulevard express tracks and extended to Springfield Boulevard via the Hillside Avenue express tracks. - N train rerouted to 63rd Street tunnel, replacing LIRR service to Port Washington, using hybrid subway/commuter rail trains (similar to Washington's Metrorail cars). Most N trains short-turn at Great Neck due to the single-track line between there and Port Washington. One or two new stations along the existing Port Washington Line to help relieve overcrowding on the 7. - W train running full-time and replacing N service to Ditmars/Astoria. No more crazy switching between Times Square and 34th Streets, which currently delays all Broadway Line service. - 5 train operates between Nereid Avenue and Flatbush Avenue rush hours in both directions. Middays, evenings and weekends, 5 terminates in the Bronx at East 180th Street. - E and W trains extended from Lower Manhattan to Staten Island via new tunnel under New York Harbor. - V train extended to Church Avenue while F runs express between Jay and Church. - 7 train extended to Lower Manhattan via 11th Avenue and West Street. Subway tunnel would have at least three tracks. |
