Hi everyone and I’m back. You guys might be wondering why I did version 2 of the midday (2) train. There are some reasons. I was not too happy with how we were slow around 50 St on the southbound leg the first time. Also, I was originally planning to do the rush hour (5) train via the (2) line both ways, but a train with mechanical problems and massive signal problems caused the 🟢Lexington Av Line🟢 to become a parking lot both ways. As a result, the (5) via the (2) bombed disastrously. Unfortunately, since I did other routes and rumors of an R160 running on the (N) train later in the day, plans changed. I was hoping to be able to do a roundtrip with the R142 (4) train, but because I was moving to DC the Saturday that followed this day, I didn’t have enough time. However, since I was already at Flatbush Av and wasn’t 100% happy with the unusual slowdown before 50 St, it made sense to do the midday version of the (2) for the second time in both ways. So yeah, I hope you guys enjoy this and yeah. The (2) is a god tier route just like every route is. I have a lot of runs planned for the summer break when I come back in August including a retry at the (5) via the (2), the R142 (4) train, the Culver Express {F} train and most importantly, more R211 runs because as of June 18, the model finally passed the 30 day test. So yeah, there will be all sorts of content coming soon. I apologize for the delay in uploads. Transitioning was a bit of a timely process.
