Re: Why New Yorkers Insisted On A ''Worse'' Subway Map

Why call anything with any BMT running BMT? Why not call anything with any IND running IND? The sensible thing would be to keep the B and D as IND and keep the R as BMT. But they aren't going to lump trains into three Division colors regardless.

BTW, there is one place I've seen Division names still used: an elevator at 161st St. has buttons labeled "IRT Mezzanine" and "IND Mezzanine". And then there are the emergency exit signs at the ends of all underground stations, which mention the Division of the physical line, but those are for "first responders" and not really for use by the general public.
