Two questions about the station: 1. when is the rebuilding supposed to finish and 2. What lines will serve it.
I have tried to find info about it online and have come up short. Any information will be helpful.

It's supposed to open on May 23. The lines that will serve it will be the D, F, B, and Q.

So there is to be no N service to Stillwell? Or is the N going to be connected later?

Sorry, you're right, forgot to list the N-sea beach line.

Actually the D is going to be using the N's platform while they rebuild the west end platform at stillwell after the rest of the station is done, hence no N til next year.

Here is a link with some picture showing the status of the station reconstruction. They better get it finished I am tired of taking the bus to Cyclone games. :D

Actually, I was down at Stillwell today and work on the station is going fast and furious. While a crew was working on the overall superstructure, a NYCT track crew was busy install track on the F ROW between Stillwell and West 8th Street. In a few days the F section will be completed. Too bad I didn't have a camera with me at the time. :(

and there's this service advisory:
Coney Island-bound trains run express on the N from 36 St
to Stillwell Av

Do they have the track up and running?
