The F line used to have an express and local run, when I was commuting to Manhattan for both High School and College. The F express was really a great service – used to cut 20 minutes off the trip. I hope they reinstitute it once the viaduct repair is finished.
I think the capacity upgrade to which Bxgrl refers is the use of a new type of signalling system to allow trains to run closer together. So far it has been implemented on one line: the “L”.

I want a highly experienced, highly educated, highly intelligent person making the big decisions.
