    Hopefully this also means extending the G to 10-car trains. I find it pretty dumb how it runs with short trains despite it not being a shuttle line.

    Is there a possibility we get G trains back on Queens Boulevard and maybe longer cars again? Like the old days of 20+ years ago and as the builders intended?

      Unfortunately there isn't enough capacity to run the G along the QBL with Forest Hills-71st Ave as the terminus for local services since it can only turn about 20 trains per hour. If they built the Queenslink and ran the M to the Rockaways, then it would be a possibility.

    • @TheRailLeaguer
      @TheRailLeaguer 10 місяців тому +5

      That’s not how any of this works as the much needed IBX serves a different market than the G train. Most riders going crosstown in Southern Brooklyn see no use for enhanced G train service, whereas the IBX would.
      You really need to stop with this hatred for the IBX.
