Service Advisory: Major Disruptions in B & D Earlier Monday Evening |
|
Posted by heypaul on Mon Jul 6 22:48:22 2015 A man was found under a B train at Yankee Stadium stop. He was uninsured and uninjured. It was unclear how he got under the train. It took quite a while to assess the extent of damage to the underside of the subway car.Did He Trip, Fall or Pushed? |

Good to hear that the man was not injured, but when I was trying to get back into the City via Brighton, there was NO communication about lack of B service. I got on the Q at Coney Island and planned to get a B Express at Sheepshead Bay. I did see 2 B's that looked out of service at Brighton, but paid it no mind. After rounding the curve on the Q at BB, I saw a stopped B with passengers, and just assumed one of the B's I saw would come to Sheepshead in a few mins. NOPE!!! Waiting at Sheepshead over 25 mins, only saw ONE out of service B fly by on the Southbound esp track. Let 2 Manhattan Q's pass and got on the 3rd one that came, and never saw another B in either direction pass. At Prospect Park, I FINALLY hear station announcements about delays on the B/D due to an earlier incident. Dont understand WHY announcements were made sooner---I would've stayed on the first Q train all the way into the city!!!! |

Don't feel bad - No announcements were made in the 4:00 hour this afternoon when there were 5 N trains and after 30+ minutes there was finally an R to Bay Ridge at 59th St/4th Ave. "No communication" seems to be the current protocol these days. |

Ugh, waiting long for R trains seems commonplace.......But really, if something were wrong along the Brighton Line, it would be nice (and professional) for Brighton Line dispatchers to have Q train conductors make announcements too if there was a delay in B service (and vice-versa). Just really poor communication all around---and it's not a new concept, I just needed to vent this time!!!! |

Actually, the Daily News is reporting that the man who was on the tracks at 161st St. is dead.Early Reports of Uninjured Not True |

Of course - practically an everyday occurrence during rush-hours. Was mitigated somewhat by people who kept abandoning the station to walk home or (overheard some say they'd) catch a bus.Rush-hour service needs to change: every other rush-hour train 95th-Whitehall or 95th-Chambers to stop the insane switching delays and severe overcrowding delays. |
