This weekend, A trains get local, C skips stations, but the L is just fine

It’s a good weekend to hit north Brooklyn as the L and G trains are refreshingly free of caveats and complications. The A and C lines are less refreshing with a mess of skipped stations on local trains and local service on express trains. Also, if you’re headed past Church Avenue on the F to Coney Island, you’re out of luck. Look to free shuttle buses for alternate service, or try the D, N or Q.
