It wouldn't make any sense to send any more trains to Flatbush than are already going there since in the AM some 2s and 5s are routed to N/Lots and Utica respectively to avoid congestion at Flatbush. If anything, some 1s might be short turned N/B on tk 1 at Chambers and sent back via tk 3 and crossed over the tk 4 at 14 St to keep them out of Bkln entirely.

Just out of curiosity, what seats are Conductors permitted to sit in while operating. On a train making local stops, when would you find time to sit down. Redbirds had no seats at the Conductors position. You were required to stand out side of the cab between stations, except when customer comfort would be impacted.

Good Luck!

Definitely, this summer on the C line was brutal. It was so bad that crews were going to the hospital from heat exhaustion. Lets see if the R46 will change things next summer........

There are several others here whose opinions I place higher value on than most for various reasons; people whose opinions I ignore for other reasons; and people whose opinion is only worthwhile on certain subjects.

How about viewing everyone's opinions equally?

I was talking about having the 1/2/3 all running local to 72nd or Times Square, with the 1 breaking off and running express to 14th, terminating there while the 2 & 3 stay local before going their normal route at Chambers.

I always thought it went up to 399.

It's much, much worse than I expected. I've moved up enough in seniority to be in that twilight zone between "automatically defaulting to Road Extra" and "you gettin' that last job, sucka!"

BUT, I think I'm going to make it through by the skin of my teeth.
