Posted by Far Rockaway A Train on Sun Oct 15 10:54:03 2017, in response to Re: [PHOTOS] The JFK Express Bus To The Plane, posted by randyo on Fri Oct 13 16:26:31 2017. I remember that. IIRC it was the closure of the Willy B for approximately one month due to structural defects back in 1988. The closure prevented the J and M trains from crossing the bridge.In response to this the TA issued free transfers to several bus routes (ie. B26, B38, B39, B40 ,B44, B46 and B47 to name a few) that connects stations along the J and M trains to stations served by the A, C, G and L trains to enable one trip to Manhattan. As far as the JFK train, it made all A express stops in Brooklyn and Manhattan, all 6th Ave express stops to 57th Street from 6am to 10pm Mondays-Fridays only-no extra charge. All other times it operated as normal. The regular JFK train "commuters" were pissed because they had to "share" their train with all those Brooklyn folks-even though they didn't have to pay extra charge and had seats. I actually heard a lady state "I want my train back." |
