Apologies for the delay in posting this. I had these ready to go but misfired on the timing. The Nostalgia Train is running this Sunday on the same schedule as last weekend, and I’ll have more on the fallout from the Metro-North crash on Sunday.
As a follow-up to Friday’s L train outage, I’ve heard the issue was related to damaged fiber optic cable. The problem has since been resolved, but it is again another issue with the Canarsie Line’s CBTC installation. it’s unclear just how related the problems are. On with the service advisories.

That 5 train work looks like it is going to take a long period of time. Speaking of the 5 train, do u have any updates on the fulton center mr.kabak?
The distance between the Morris Park and Pelham Pkwy. stations is really short. I’m surprised they have a shuttle bus.
I pass through Fulton St every work day.
Weeks on end go by without any visible effort by constuction workers, much less any progress.
This, including the Transit Center, seems like the no show job scam of all the ages.
They should force the contractor / union to post ( alleged ) progress reports on the internet every day.
Pity the Franklin shuttle work isn’t restoring the double tracking as far as Park Place or even the Franklin Avenue platform. While the TA can be congratulated in re-habbing the line rather than tearing it up they missed a real opportunity to provide for emergencies by singling the line.
