Re: Tuscarora Almanac for January 1

It does seem a bit stupid but psychologically, it made sense to put in a paper restriction since passengers coming from the A to the Myrtle could only get their transfer at Bway/Nassau so the TA wanted it to look like the same restriction applied both ways even if it were unenforceable. If you think about it, both restrictions don’t make much sense since there may have been passengers from uptown points on the A who needed to go to one of the stops on the Myrtle el and with the restriction, they would have to transfer twice from the A to the Jamaica Line at Bway/Nassau and again to the Myrtle el at Bway/Myrtle instead of just one transfer at Bridge/Jay. Back in 1958 When my mother and I needed to go to Lutheran Cemetery on the Myrtle el, if we hadn’t been able to use the transfer at Jay St, we would have had to take the A to 14 St, the 14 St Line to Myrtle/Wyckoff and the el to Met.
