Although late-January isn’t always a transit-rich time of year, this week proved to be a busy one. In case you missed anything, you can read about the community concerns over the looming L train shutdown, the ultimate fate of the 7 line extension stop at 10th Ave., the problematic R train, the near-term future of the Second Ave. Subway, and, of course, open gangway rolling stock which is coming soon to New York. If that’s not your thing, how about some weekend service advisories?

Harlem-138 St, that’s a new one! Always fun looking for the MTA’s typos…
Under “2” they also felt the need to note that “Van Cortlandt Park-bound 1 trains run local from Times Sq-42 St to 96 St.” As if that’s not what always happens.
Is the copy editor on vacation or something?
