The B46 "Fare Deal" started in the early 90s before there was a free transfer between bus and subway. Its actually started the same day as the B46 Limited. It was basically a way to get people away from the dollar vans that was very frequent along Utica Ave during that time.

When you boarded the Williamsburg bound B46 bus south of Eastern Pkwy during the AM rush, you'll get a free transfer to the IRT at Eastern Pkwy. During the PM rush, it was towards Kings Plaza. I believe that you had to swipe your Metrocard anywhere along the 3/4 route in Manhattan...
