No deep musings from me tonight. Let’s just jump in. You can tell the holiday season is fast approaching because the service alerts are slowing down a bit.
From 12:01 a.m. Saturday, November 15 to 5 a.m. Monday, November 17, downtown 1 and 2 trains skip 66th, 59th, and 50th Streets due to station rehab work at 59th Street-Columbus Circle.
From 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday, November 15 and Sunday, November 16, Bronx-bound 4 trains skip 170th Street, Mt. Eden Avenue, and 176th Street due to track repairs.
From 12:01 a.m. Saturday, November 15 to 5 a.m. Monday, November 17, uptown A, C and E trains skip Spring, 23rd and 50th Sts. due to pump room work at West 4th Street.
From 11:30 p.m. Friday, November 14 to 5 a.m. Monday, November 17, free shuttle buses replace A trains between 168th Street and 207th Street. Customers may transfer between the Broadway or Ft. Washington Avenue shuttle buses and the A train at 168th Street. There are no C trains between 145th Street and 168th Street. Customers should take the A instead, which runs local between 145th Street and 168th Street. These changes are due to tunnel lighting, structural and track work.
From 8:30 p.m. Friday, November 14 to 5 a.m. Monday, November 17, there are no G trains between Forest Hills-71st Avenue and Long Island City-Court Square due to N and R work (see below). Customers should take the E or R instead. – It’s the random no G train excuse generator.
From 12:01 a.m. Saturday, November 15 to 5 a.m. Monday, November 17, there are no N trains between Queensboro Plaza and Times Square due to track replacement in the area of 5th Avenue/59th Street, switch work at Queensboro Plaza and tunnel security work.

A little too late to note this, I suppose, but the Broadway Line work this weekend (NQRW) was only scheduled for Sunday, not Saturday. The R listing here correctly shows Sunday but the others show Saturday also. The Q today ran express as normal over the bridge on Saturday, but will be running as planned via the tunnel on Sunday. Most of the posters in stations note “normal service Saturday, November 15.” Unfortunately, there is some confusion on the MTA website, as it shows the Q service change as both days and the N as Sunday only (when in fact they are all linked and only operate together).
Benjamin, thanks for posting these anyway!
