50th St 8th Ave, |

Posted by jabrams on Fri Oct 22 19:05:15 2010 I had to take the C train at 50th St. at 8th Ave today, downtown side.(Bklyn bound) It appears that there never was a token booth at that station, however there were 3 open low-style turnstyles there. An automated announcement comes over the PA system, stating "The next downtown local is one station away" Now is that a downtown C train at 59th Street or a downtown E train at 7th Ave. Or would the announcement not play on the lower downtown platform? The train arrived shortly, I was in the 7th car. The doors closed an the T/O made an announcement that we were being delayed by an E crossing in front of us. Although we were in the station for about 1 minute, shouldn't the T/O have signalled the conductor to reopen the dooors until the signal cleared? |
