Before it came to be in the late 1980s, there was a skip-stop "A/B" service on the J. it was confusing and generated lots of complaints from passengers who wound up on the wrong train. If the Z were turned into a different service, how would service to Jamaica be covered WITHOUT adding more TPH?Before MTA announced the final plan for the 14th St closure, they had said that Bedford would be closed as well to accommodate construction equipment and material. The likely scenario in that case would have been the L truncated to a shuttle between Canarsie & Myrtle. Then, AND ONLY THEN would a thru service between Canarsie & Manhattan be viable. I speculated such a service would be either extra M service to Forest Hills, or a separate line entirely going to 2nd Ave. Shutting down the whole line to play Phomer Phantasy Subway makes no sense. |
