By the time I entered schedules in Dec 1976, the K had already been eliminated and during Rush Hours alternate Bs served 57 St and 168 St with selected rush hour trains being put in or laid up at Bay Pky. The EE had been eliminated and replaced with the N during the hours that the EE formerly ran. GGs terminated at Smith/9 St at all times and the F became a lcl N/O Church Av during rush hours but still had an express service between 18 Av and K/Hy in the peak direction of traffic. Alternate rush hour Fs (the ones that ran lcl turned at Kings Hwy with the earliest AM N/B lcl put ins going in service at Ave X. As hadn’t run to Rock Pk since Chrystie St that terminal being served by the E and later as you indicated the CC. I was actually in the schedule office until late 1983 when I became a trainmaster and in early 1984 was returned to the schedule office along with 2 other trainmasters who were former schedule makers to assist in implementing computer scheduling and making the necessary run time and work program adjustments necessitated by the numerous red tag (slow speed) areas in the system at the time. I don’t remember exactly what changes took place when at this point but I was directly involved in the implementation of the service changes that Involved making the midnight #6 a shuttle and the swapping of the south terminals of the 2, 3, 4 , and 5.
