Posted by #5 - Dyre Ave on Tue Jan 24 18:46:17 2017, in response to Re: N to 96/2, posted by Joe V on Tue Jan 24 17:55:31 2017. It was the 1986 Manhattan Bridge track closure which ended the split B. The 63rd St Tunnel did not. All it did was give the B a different northern terminal on weekends, which already was the service pattern at the time. When the bridge tracks reopened in December 1988, the B ran to/from 168th St on weekdays, 57/6 on weekends and 36/4 late nights. The Q ran to/from 57th/6th while the B ran to/from 168. In September 1989, when the 63rd St Tunnel open for service to 21 St - Queensbridge, they simply extended the weekend B from 57th St to 21st St. |
