Also, all owl trains used to run every 20 minutes, not sure if       that is       >still true.              Every station other than Aqueduct is served at all times, but not by       every train. For example, late nights the A runs local in Manhattan       and makes the stops that the C makes in the day. During the day alternate       A trains go to Leffert's Blvd and the Rockaways, but after midnight they all       go to the Rockaways and there's a shuttle between Euclid Ave and Lefferts Blvd.              In general, every station is served every 20 minutes or better,       although I see a few places like the Rockaway shuttle with 26 minutes       between some trains.              There's also a lot of weekend closings for construction. This weekend for       example there's no L service in Manhattan.              >The LIRR runs all night.              Well, sort of. From Penn Station to Jamaica, there's nothing between       3:18 and 4:54 AM and that ripples out to the rest of the system.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
