Weekend Changes To The N & R Trains

If you’re looking for a weekend to get out and explore the city on the subway, this might be the one — both the F and the G are running with normal service along the entire lines! There are some changes to look out for along the N and R lines, though:

Coney Island-bound N trains stop at 45 St and 53 St
Weekends, 12:01am Saturday to 5am Monday, until May 5
Allow additional travel time.

No R shuttle train between 59 St and 36 St
Late nights, 11:30pm Friday to 5am Monday, until May 5
Shuttle service operates between 95 St and 59 St. For 53, 45, and 36 Sts, take the N instead. Transfer between trains at 59 St.

No R trains between Lower Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn
All times until October 2014
No R service at City Hall, Cortlandt, Rector, Whitehall, Court Streets, and Jay Street-MetroTech. R service operates between Forest Hills-71st Avenue and Bay Ridge-95th Street. Trains run via the Q in both directions between Canal Street and DeKalb Avenue.

These schedules occasionally change, so be sure to check mta.info for the latest information.
