The good news is according to the MTA Weekender , there will be Roosevelt Island F Train

service to and from Manhattan this weekend. The bad news, as previously reported , is there will only be 1 Roosevelt Island Tram cabin in service for the rest of November:

… Leitner-Poma, operator of the Roosevelt Island Tramway, has advised that, due to required inspections and maintenance on both Tram cabins (including the replacement of both cabin floors), the Tram will operate with one cabin, running on a peak schedule during the month of November….

UPDATE 6:15 PM – A tipster reports very crowded Tram ride home this evening:

Leaving Manhattan, Tram super full, people don’t fit in and have to wait for the next one. 1/3 to 1/2 left on platform.
