The N-train running local along Queens Blvd lasted for about 10 years.

Actually there was express service on the Broadway line, in both directions, however it was limited. The express service was the rush hour QB trains.

The running of the QB in those days was indeed limited, with the reverse peak direction QB trains headed back to Brooklyn, making the usual stops. Whatever was sent up to 57th Street from Coney Island was simply sent back to Coney Island, making the usual stops.

All of this was gonna change with the switching of the terminals of the N and R trains in Queens, and a couple of decades of Manhattan Bridge repair work.
