Posted by mrw on Wed Aug 14 00:30:29 2019, in response to Re: West Side IRT Closure, posted by The silence on Tue Aug 13 08:20:39 2019. As per 96 St Switches "during this suspension, we're also doing vital work along the entire 123 line" thus why there is no 1/2/3 service not just around 96th St.Regarding the supplementary M service, the map in the above link is slightly deceptive because it appears that the M will terminate southbound at Delancey-Essex instead of presumably Middle Village. This also makes me wonder how many people will either get on the M thinking it is going elsewhere or let it pass by not knowing where it is going. How about changing the letter/route of a train midway (eg. train would be labeled 'B' above 47-50th and 'M' below)? Or, how about designating the northbound service as 'B' and southbound as 'M'? |

Sure there's probably going to be at least one person out there who's like that, but given the map guide is on top of where the M is, it's just a side effect |

I suppose the trains running from the Bronx, down the Lex, and out to Brooklyn College this weekend will be labeled "2", even though except for their Bronx branch, they are exactly the same as a weekday "5". |

From the rider's point of view, it just looks like a train got lost and may meander to any point in the system. If you grew up here you know the drill, but to anyone not using the subway year after year it's bewildering. |
