    According to Gowanus Lounge, “New York City Transit says that express service on the F won’t be possible until 2012 or early 2013”.

    Residents that use the local stops, however, were assured their trains would become less crowded. Gary Reilly, who started the F Train Express petition drive that got a great deal of press attention, said that “It wouldn’t just be a zero-sum game for the neighborhoods” and that the changes would “free up some excess capacity.”

    There is also a push to extended the V Train to Brooklyn to provide local service. G Train service is slated to be extended to Church Avenue in 2009. (Mr. Inglesby said the extension of the V isn’t “a complete dead issue.”)

    The MTA and New York City Transit are still examining options. “Nothing is set in stone,” Mr. Inglsby told residents.
