The N train was never EXP along Queens Blvd, only in Manhattan and Bklyn. From 1976 to the N/R terminal switch, N trains ran to Forest Hills via Bway Exp Mon-Fri from 6AM to about 745PM. Other times, N trains ran from COney Island and terminated at 57th St. Mon-Fri AM rush hrs, all N trains ran via Bway local SOUTHBOUND, and PM rush hrs, all trains ran via Bway Local NORTHBOUND. Alternate N trains operated from Forest Hills to Whitehall St via local Southbound M-f 7:20AM to 8:15AM, and Northbound 4:30PM to 5:15PM. I can recall killing time watching the N and RR trains come in from Queens at Lex-59th during the peak AM rush back then, and there seemed to be an N OR RR train arriving approx every 2 mins back then!! |
