It worked fine when I tested it, and I'm signed out. There should be a page that says "Click here to download attachment" or something like that. That or it'll load right off the bat. |

It said something like the file was broken as if you left something out of it or something. If I knew how to use Photoshop, I would print screen it and show you, but from what I see it looks very impressive.Is there any way to save it as an image file and maybe upload it to Photobucket? |

The F Travels on the west side of the Van Wyck Expressway with the E, and crosses under while turning east right before Hillside Ave. Look at Google Maps Satellite View, you'll see the subway grates.- West of the A line, The Conduits become "Conduit Blvd" - This doesn't really matter but the Livonia Yard is over Linden Blvd. |

And I like your service format. Very very nice. Love the "extended" on the (G), and nice including reverse peak (Z) service.Nitpicking time: You didn't mention that the (D) operates local in Brooklyn during late nights, I don't know if you want to add that in. Kings Hwy/McDonald Av, I think since you were specific on terminals with the (Z), should be included as a part-time terminal for some (F) trains. And for a future addition, I don't know if you'd like to separate the <6> and the <7> from the (6) and the (7) in their respective places if you have space. But enough with my criticisms, very nice job. I'm saving this on my comp if you don't mind. This is truly amazing. |

The symbol for the 74th St-Bway/Roosevelt-Jackson Hts station complex does not indicate that it is a local stop for the (7). 2. Although you show rush hour specials to Utica or New Lots for the (2)(4)(5), you do not show the 179th St. specials for the (E). 3. As far as the roads shown are concerned, please add Rockaway Av. from at least Linden Blvd. to Rockaway Pkwy. slightly north of the (L) terminal, and delete Rockaway Pkwy. between there and Linden Blvd. It is a dead-end at the Bay Ridge LIRR. Keep it up! Also, if you e-mail me, I can provide a list of stations without crossovers. Bob |

Kings Hwy/McDonald Av, I think since you were specific on terminals with the (Z), should be included as a part-time terminal for some (F) trains. The thing with the (Z) is that most if not all reverse peak service terminates there. I wanted to avoid going into very obscure short turns. Then again, the Kings Highway thing might apply to a sizable amount of (F) trains. I'll reconsider that.

It runs local on the Hillside branch outbound but express inbound in the morning.You could simply use a dotted blue line and leave it at that. |

If this is your subway map, the bus map will be interesting =)Just a few notes: -When you first mentioned the transfer under construction between Borough Hall-Jay/Lawrence Street; I think you should also put it in for the Court Sq Complex and Bleecker St [and wherever else transfers are being created that I haven't mentioned] --I'm not sure if you also want to mention the stations that are out of service for going under rehab or in the process of having an elevator built...but I'll just through it out there. Great job though! |

Really beautiful job on the map.If you're asking for advice or corrections, then the first thing that I noticed is that your yard designations aren't quite accurate. If you are only talking about "home" yards, then there are some missing, and if you are talking about usage, then there are a lot missing. Either way, here's a more accurate breakdown: 239 - 2 & 5 Concourse-Jerome - 4, B, D, S Livonia - 2, 3, 4, 5 Coney Island - B, D, F, M, N, Q, R, W, S Also, the shade of blue that you used for the 8 Av lines does not show up very well against the black background. I would recommend a brighter shade. |
