Posted by randyo on Sun Jan 3 18:38:06 2016, in response to Re: Service Patterns, posted by SLRT on Sun Jan 3 17:59:23 2016. I found that except for the Nassau St specials which were a rush hour only service, the BMT was also pretty consistent. From what I have seen of the BMT el services, the only 2 track line that had a skip stop was the 5 Av although the 14 St Line also had a so called express which bypassed all the stations between Lorimer and Myrtle. The rest of the bMT service was pretty consistent, the only drastic change being after the Brighton Exp stopped running in the PM the Brighton Lcl ran via the bridge instead of the tunnel. As for the ind, one of the old timers in the schedule office mentioned to me that one of the schedule makers had proposed having the AA run 24/7 and having the rush hour Concourse Lcl be a DD between Bed Pk and 34/6. He was shut down by the higher ups at the time who insisted that the Wash Hts and Concourse branches should each have an 8th and a 6th Ave service. I wonder what those naysayers would say now! |
