I just have one question about it. On a map that I read, it said that during the rush, some trains skip Chrstopher Street.

Is this true? If so, why?

After 9-11, there was no WTC station, so many downtown workers took the 33rd Street train. IIRC, overcrowding resulted at Christopher to the point where it was dangerous and trains bypassed Christopher during rush to avoid further overloading platforms.

Okay; thanks, JLo.
