11. 2006-06-26Frank Farance11 Using Switching / Signaling That Already Exists Previously, trains terminated at 21St Queensbridge with switch and reverse Trains reverse/cross in opposite directions elsewhere in the system (e.g., 34 Street and 6 Ave) By using the Queens-bound platform for reverse/switch for AM rush, if there are any delays in reversing, it doesn’t back up into the incoming rush trains (e.g., 63 St connector in LIC)
