Posted by Larry,RedbirdR33 on Fri Aug 17 21:14:25 2012, in response to Re: RT K - 6 Avenue - Broadway Bkyln Local Schedule, posted by Dupont Circle Station on Fri Aug 17 19:08:47 2012. K was KK from 1968 until January, 1973. It was cut back to Eastern Pky from 168-Jamaica at that time.A number of posts have indicated there were a couple of regular daily runs that were technically "MM" because they went to Met instead of EP or 168. The KK and the K were two different services even though there were several similarities. Here is the KK schedule from the June 1968 Bulletin. The KK was the 6 Avenue - Broadway/Brooklyn - Jamaica Local. It operated weekdays only. Manhattan bound service ran as follows: Lv Atlantic Avenue 610,620,638,656 AM and 849 - 926 AM Lv Rockaway Parkway 621, 640 and 655 AM Lv 111 Street 659 and 708 AM Lv 168 Street/Jamaica 710 - 823 AM (B Skip Stop) Lv Eastern Parkway 308 - 522 PM Lv Atlantic Avenue 453 and 459 PM All of the above operated to 57 Street/6 Avenue. Queens bound service ran as follows with all trains leaving from 57/6. To 168 Street/Jamaica 654,702,710 and 718 AM (All stops) To Metropolitan Av/Ridgewood 726,736,754 and 809 AM To Atlantic Avenue 746,759,820,830 and 844 AM To Eastern Parwkay 816,834, 851 - 1011 AM To 168 Street/Jamaica 408 - 533 PM (B Skip Stop) To Eastern Parkway 539 - 638 PM I rode the KK to Metropolitan Avenue a few times and the trains did carry KK signs. B Skip-Stop trains stopped at 168 St, 160 St, Sutphin, Queens Blvd, Metropolitan Av, 102 St, Elderts Ln, Cypress Hills, Norwood, Van Siclen, Alabama and Eastern Parkway. These trains made all local stops west of Eastern Parkway. Larry, RedbirdR33 |
