  • On select weekends, D trains run via the F, and F trains run via the D south of West 4 St in Manhattan. Jay Krantz, New York City Transit's Director of Rail Network Planning, breaks down how a confusing service change is actually a clever way to make sure that nobody is left without service!

    This was a good idea. People tend to be better about this when they actually know what's going on and aren't in the dark. You guys should post a QR code on your flyers so anyone who sees this can be linked to this video.

    I've always wondered why the MTA did this and now it finally makes sense! I feel like this video should play on the digital boards in all stations - would lead to much less frustration.

    More videos like this please. The general public can seem rather displeased as if service advisories on posters never existed.

    OK this was actually great. Thank you for (1) acknowledge that it DOES seem like madness, (2) explaining why it is not

    Amazed you added visuals of the interlocking. That’s awesome. Love the transparency

    This is good as hell. For our mental health, please keep doing this kind of thing. The more commuters know about how and why things are done, the easier time they'll have coping with the madness.

    Appreciate the explanation! I really like the recent transparency regarding construction work on the subways.

    Why am I watching this video? It's December 2020. I've never even been to New York.

    We always gotta respect the MTA! They do stuff to keep us moving

    Oh! This even allows the F Trains,now that they are running on the D line,to go back to Coney Island! And experience the Manhattan Bridge!

    I’m glad you guys did this video cause I always asked why they do this if it’s construction

    Great video. Never would have someone thinking that actually explaining things was a good idea back in the TA days.

    Although I don't even live in NYC, these explanation videos are very interesting...

    Wow! Animated graphics to explain! I'm a daily D line user and I wondered about this very subject. It looked so arbitrary. Thanks for explaining.

    PLEASE make some more trivia videos with this quality I want more of this sleek animation

    Wow the MTA actually admitted to the public that there are track connections and they don’t just want to ruin your commute. They should make the track maps public so rides don’t have to buy them.

    Keeping people informed is great. Anytime someone says "why is the MTA doing this, it's so stupid", I will be directing them to this video... and hopefully more to come.

    This is the best thing to come from the MTA since the Q Diamond.
