It was discussed in the thread about Mattituck that ties are being dropped along the Greenport Branch in preparation for track work.
The schedule effective 2/26/06 shows that on weekdays, only the early AM Peak train from Greenport, the PM Peak train to Greenport, the late PM from Greenport, and the weird afternoon, Yaphank "turn" will run as trains.
The other weekday schedules will be "bustituted" through May 20, to allow for trackwork. 3 months should allow for some serious track work.
Last time there was a pre-scheduled bustitiution for track work, the late morning run out of Greenport missed making it's connection at KO on 2 of the 5 times I used it. Maybe they will have their act together this time.
