I assume D trains were Northbound Brighton Locals during that gap btwn 527PM to 6:14PM?

IND: There were several strange aspects of the subway service during the period between November, 1967 and July, 1968. The forty five minute gap in 'QJ" service was one of them.

The "D" was another. It did restore midday express service to the Brighton line which had been missing for several years. "D" trains ran express on the Brighton Line as follows: southbound 7:52 AM to 7:28 PM (appx) exp Prospect Park to Brighton Beach, 7:37 to 8:23 PM exp Prospect Park to Kings Highway. Northbound express left from Coney Island from 6:00 AM to 5:30 PM after which they ran as Brighton Locals.

This was the plan although as time went on "D" trains would run local south of Kings Highway earlier due to congestion at Brighton Beach.
