From looking at the subway system route map there appear
to be a number of connections that might be useful for current or
future subway routings. Here are some that appear to exist but
DON'T.
There is no connection between the J and E lines of the Archer
Avenue Subway. The Archer Avenue Subway consists of two tracks on each
of two separate levels, and there is no interconnection between
levels.
There is no connection between the A and G lines at
Hoyt/Schermerhorn, e.g. for allowing a southbound G train to use the
Cranberry Street tunnel to Manhattan/8th Avenue.
The connection of the 8th Ave. and 6th Ave. IND lines via 53rd
Street do not permit all logical routes, e.g. a train heading uptown on
8th Ave., cannot turn and head downtown via 6th Ave., and a train
heading downtown on 8th Ave. cannot head "uptown" to Queens.
