The official G.O [Route Diversion Thread]

[Gong Gahou]

the X80 bus is so special, it's not even on the map

anyway, the X80 is an express bus that goes to Randall's Island (similar to the M35)

Yep, I know. I paid another visit to 125th Street a couple of hours before your post and observed the signpost where the X80 would stop. But thanks for telling me anyway.

A phone camera is still a camera. It works the same way, except that it's really small and compact compared to point-and-shoots and SLRs, plus most of the stuff in the camera is done automatically for you.

I will show the pictures from my photo bucket when I railfanned with him, using the iPhone 4

Not really G.O's they just aren't period except the (F) To Av X and via Crosstown.
A good one would had been (B) via Concourse Exp or Central Pk W Exp.

(3) via 7th Av Local

(N) via 4th Av Local approaching 4th Av-9th St


That R-46 is actually a (C)harlie train.That day it was I think 104 degrees and there was a 12-9 at 14th b\c a guy went to get his cellphone so it screwed up (A) service.(C) train enroute to Far Rock

(4) approaching 51st St.

(R) via 6th Av

Slipped this in here since it's not a G.O it maybe now since the Brighton Express is back or soon to be.

I'm seeing weird route changes on my way to college...on a weekday.




Taken on Thursday, 10/27

[Lance]

That's not all that rare or weird. Some (2)s and (5)s terminate or originate at New Lots Av or Crown Hts-Utica Av respectively because of spacial constraints on the Nostrand Avenue portion of the line.

[error46146]

Flatbush terminal can't handle that many trains..

R142 Manhattan bound 2 train leaving Saratoga Avenue
