It's my understanding that on the BMT, at least after unification, everything going from Manhattan to Brooklyn was considered southbound; in the other direction it was condidered northbound. This created an interesting problem when they had the Nassau loop operation. A loop train passing through Chambers St would change its subway direction without changing its physical direction. Strictly speaking the Jamaica bound J should be considered southbound, but I think it's listed as northbound in the public timetable because that's the compass direction it mostly follows in Manhattan. |
