True, but in this case, this line only adds two new stations to otherwise existing lines (one of them a re-build from the old Myrtle El) and would be absorbing one full-time line (Franklin shuttle) and one other shuttle line that runs nights and weekends ((M) between Myrtle and Metropolitan) and also reinstates the original purpose of how the lines are supposed to work when there are four tracks: The full-time express line (on the Brighton, in this scenario the (Q)) runs to Manhattan while the full-time local line (in this case, the "Black V" as I call it) running within Brooklyn and Queens (the (B) in this scenario becomes a second weekday local on the Brighton to Coney Island).The main feature of this line would be the numerous lines there would be transfers to/from, plus the flexibility when necessary (via a connection to the Broadway Brooklyn line) of having the (B) for example (if using 60-foot cars) being able to get to the Brighton line from the Broadway-Brooklyn line and if warranted also being able to have a line operate to/from the Brighton line from the Nassau Street line without going through the Montauge Tunnel. |
