Re: N to 96/2

SMH.

There are trains that run via the Sea Beach line that end up at 96/2. The decision was made to sign them as Qs instead of Ns in the northbound direction to minimize confusion. These trains are run because there is a need for a certain frequency of trains on the Sea Beach Line but not all of them can go to Astoria.

By signing it as an N people will expect it to go to Astoria. By signing it as a Q people will expect it to go to 96th Street. Therefore such trains are signed correctly. There is no N to 96th Street program precisely because they do not want one to be used and NOT due to laziness, indifference or some oversight.
