It is intresting how the MTA decided to extend the “6” to Bowling Green. I’m just curious how they would handle the amount of trains because the 4 needs go through that station. And 2 lines are terminating at Bowling Green. It nice for those who live in Pelham Bay City without tranferring.

The downside is the lex ave express is not going to run in upper east side

Not really, the 5 and 6 trains go through the old South Ferry loop. Plus the 5 train will run every 20 minutes or 3 full trains per hour. It won’t affect the 6 nor the 4.
