Nice ride! It’s good to see the 5 trains run to New Lots Avenue. The MTA needs to strongly consider making those last trains to Utica Avenue run to New Lots Avenue normally, since they’re layups to the yard.

[@MTAFan585]

Agree!

And the 4:54 PM train from Dyre Av to Utica. That also goes to the storage, revised as it was previously the 4th train to Utica to the Yard.

Wish the New Lots Avenue extension was permanent tbh

I heard it was, around from 1990’s til 2002 it ran to New Lots during AM rush hour while using the Redbirds.

I read the description, and it says that trains to/from Nereid Avenue ran local in the Bronx. When I was at East 180th Street on Tuesday, they ran express in the Bronx, and then switched to the local tracks.

[@LanceWright]

Interesting because Nereid bound 5 trains were running local on Wednesday which was lame. Some even did a battery run on the local too

[@Bklynkid52]

@@LanceWright That sucks. They probably took what they saw on Monday and Tuesday and made adjustments.

5 trains run express to/from 180th Street- 149/3rd Ave during rush hour.
