That's why the Brooklyn F is more crowded than the Queens F.While it can get real bad when there are massive delays (most likely originating in Queens), under normal situations the Brooklyn F doesn't get as crowded as the Queens side. You don't hear people at York, East Broadway, Delancey or Second Av. complaining about crowdedness as much as Roosevelt Islanders. Part of it is the difference in mentality but most of it is actual statistics. When Park Slope and Caroll Gardens people asked for a V extension to Church Av., the TA looked at the ridership and saw that there wasn't enough demand for another service. The Brooklyn F only had 16-18tph because the Queens side needed them. Ridership went up for sure, but I can still have some room to breathe when getting on at Second Av. during morning rush. |
