I've heard rumors that the train will run again this year.

If anyone catches word on where and when it will run, including
hopefully a schedule, could they share it with us?

(For the last two years it ran on a modified "V", on the same schedule
graciously provided by Mr. K.)

thanks!

I've asked around. No firm info yet, but rumor has it that they will
run again this year. As in the past, a shortened *V* between Queens
Plaza and Second Ave, via 53rd St and 6th Ave.

When I get something specific, I'll post it on the JoeKorNer and here.

Last year the press release didn't get out until 11/25.

Still no official word, but I heard from a very reliable source that the
R-1 to R-9 train will run on Sundays in December. Here's my page
slightly updated from last year:

Still no guarantees as yet.

Also the M42 will have two week day, mid day (10a-2p) historic buses
rotating from a group of four vehicles. These will operate in good
weather only.

I'll update again if I get confirmation.
