I think a good argument exists at least for renaming the Lefferts Blvd branch, for the following reasons:1) More than just a few runs per day. . .in fact about half of the runs. 2) It's easier and clearer to tell people "take the A train for JFK" rather than "take only certain A trains for JFK." 3) You can make the new letter the name of the shuttle to Lefferts from Euclid overnight, rather than have any ambiguity against the A train or the present Rockaway Park shuttle. As I see it, the advantages outweigh whatever transition would need to be made in having an extra line name going up 8th Ave. "Take the A or K (for example)," does not require much more breath than "Take the A," and for anyone going out to the branches beyond Rockaway Blvd, you can give much more succinct directions. |
