"The standard from 1959 means" the non-Railfans, which is 99.9% of the patrons, call it the "N" line, not the Sea Beach.

TA's own reroute service advisories make no mention of Branch names but say "The D train will run on the N line between 36th Street and Stillwell". They have spent 58 de-emphasizing BMT names - this is the price you pay.

Now we have a asymmetrical routing situation in which the exact same service is called "Q via Sea Beach" northbound , but "N" southbound, with no mention of N's on 2nd Avenue at all. I don't think that has ever happened before.

Then the Brighton Line people will get wind of this and complain "why are they taking Q trains away from us and giving it to them over there".
