What problems bother you along your commute along the J, M or Z Trains and what would you do to fix them?

My problem is the long wait times. The J takes forever to come. It is a god damn lie that the J is on time. Fie upon that. if you ever waited for a J train past BWay Junction, you should know. The J runs too few trains I think.

Another thing that sux is that the J has to operate at low speeds and or outright stop its engines and allow its own momentum to carry it arond the ridiculosly tight curves, the first between BWay Junction and Alabama, the next being the 2 S curves at Crescent and the last before entering the Archer Ave spur.

I just feel like that the trains are always crappy and late so hence the MTA just modified the schedule to say that the train comes at its late time and hence by the new schedule it is on time.

In my opionon to solve the problem, send more trains up the track and have both the Z and the J run with R 160s so in that way, when a z reaches its terminal, it does not have to run back to the yard, it can just flip to a J and continue service on the return trip as a J and then flip back to Z and run again.

Both the J and Z are scheduled to run only R160As. And you r other proposal of the Z staying a J train until the next rush, that's what started last week. The 5 R160s on the J are the Z trains.

I can't help but wonder if people who are all for the M running up 6th Ave actually riders of the M or are they casual riders? I ride the M from Middle Village to Canal Street everyday and of course it'd be easier to not have to transfer but grabbing the N or Q at Canal gets you to midtown pretty quickly. I would rather stay on the M all the way to the city than transfer to the L as well, that may be more direct but in the end it really doesn't save much time. Just like jumping onto the J at Myrtle, you get to stops in the city maybe 5 min earlier.

To say nothing of the fact that none of the current projects is going to do anything about the crowding problems on the L, which is largely what the V-M combination is supposed to solve.

Think I have an idea, not sure if anyone has thought of this one but the V gets scrapped totally, F replaces the V route from Forest Hills to 6th Ave. Q is extended through 63rd Street tunnel along the former F route to Hillside Ave. M train runs up 6th Ave and is able to turn around at 57th and 6th Ave since the F no longer runs down from 63rd Street anymore. Z is extended to Bay Pkwy to replace the M since it only runs rush hours anyway. The only loss is to the 2nd Ave stop on the V which can be shut down.

So let me get this idea staright & correct?

"F" runs as QB/6th Local between Forest Hills and Coney Island at all times.

"M" runs between 57th/6th and Metro Ave via 6th Ave Local/Crystiie Connection/Williamsburg Local daily except late nights.

"Q" runs between 179th St/Jamaica and Coney Island via QB Express/63rd 24/7 then along current route to Stillwell.

"Z" runs between Broadway Junction and Bay Parkway via Broadway-Brooklyn-Williamsburg-Nassau then along the existing "M" line?
