Posted by GP38/R42 Chris on Fri Jan 8 14:48:50 2010, in response to Re: UPDATE & WHAT I THINK ... Re: ZMan, that is great news, replacing the M train with the V train., posted by Bill From Maspeth on Fri Jan 8 13:08:24 2010. As I said 10 times a year every time this M/V thing is bought up, it screws M riders who have to make a new transfer at Essex to the J to get to lower Manhattan who lose their current one seat rideAnd for many more, it will give them a 1 seat ride instead of a THREE seat ride. Some even have another transfer to make to the IRT they already make at Chambers or Fulton. So they change at Broadway-Lafayette/Bleecker, which soon will be a full transfer (and not have to go roundabout all the way downtown on Nassau), or 14th St for the West Side IRT (instead of going all the way downtown first to Fulton on Nassau). And actually, many of the West side people will have a dream of a transfer to the West Side at West 4th St, whereas now the transfer at Fulton is a nightmare, and that after going roundabout ALL THE way downtown. But all the supporters of this conveniently ignore this FACT to bolster their own justification. This was CLEARLY addressed in a post right in this thread, that YOU conveniently chose to ignore apparently. If this is a go, and if you look at the beginning of this subthread Zman re-emphasizes this is NOT a done deal, politicos along the J/M lines will yell like Vallone is yelling about losing the W. Once Cathy Nolan in Ridgewood is involved (who has pushed for it before) to finally seeing Midtown service for the M, she gets things done. |
