Re: Andy's Almanac - December 1

I remember as a kid traveling with my folks getting on a train of BMT Standards at the 65th St Sta in Woodside to change for an E or F at Queens Plaza. It was the first time I saw a Standard & I couldn't figure out how you knew what train what you were getting on since there were no route/destination signs on the front.
I was used to the R12/14s on the Flushing Line & the R1/9s on the GG which had front end route & destination signs.
Makes me wonder when the BMT encroached on Hyland's IND, how many folks got on the wrong train & wound up in Manhattan instead of Greenpoint?
