Riders should also know, thanks to eagle-eyed neighbor Meg Feeley, we’re now aware that **the next two weekends will be even worse–there will be [no Q trains in either direction between Prospect Park and Stillwell Avenue](http://travel.mtanyct.info/serviceadvisory/routeStatusResult.aspx?tag=Q&date=3/3/2014&time=&method=getstatus4&ref=bklyner.com), with shuttle buses running instead** (more on that next week). Better get comfy walking to the F!
