Transmogrifornication of N's and Q's at Ditmars Blvd Terminal |

Posted by heypaul on Sun Aug 28 08:02:34 2016 Ditmars Blvd is a scary station. More than 50 years ago, I remember feeling that the train was going to fall to the ground as it approached the terminal block.And then about a week ago, I was on an n/b N train leaving Astoria Blvd heading to the last stop. On the way I noted a s/b N leaving Ditmars Blvd. Anyway, we pulled in and I quickly recorded the sound of the train dumping its air, to add to my collection of approximately 28,000 similar sound recordings. I remained on the train. After a couple of minutes, I was shocked to see the display saying that we were now a Q train, my homeline train. How could a Sea Beach Fred's set of cars be relegated to serving The Brighton line, without at least some effort to fumigate the cars? |
