Not entirely since the (N) would still be a 4th Avenue express, and in these changes would actually become a 24/7 express (instead of being a local overnights) line since the (D) and (R) would BOTH be 24/7 local lines.I know what you said on route designations, but everything else has changed over time (the (D) has over the years run over all three elevated lines to CI at one time or another) and this would be no different. It would just take some getting used to for Brooklyn passengers. The main issues on this are the yard issues the (R) would have returning to Astoria and the likelihood if the QB-Rockaway connection happens, it will have to be a line that runs from lower Manhattan (which no 6th Avenue service does, eliminating the (M) from contention) as I suspect if they are paying for it (and they very well be told they will have to, something I've noted before I would be willing to do) they will want such a line serving lower Manhattan and the Financial District, hence the (W) from Whitehall-Rockaway Park being that new line. |
