Re: Questions about the history of M service (Calling SLRT, Elkeeper, Eric B)

Posted by Union Tpke on Mon May 25 11:23:18 2020, in response to Re: Questions about the history of M service (Calling SLRT, Elkeeper, Eric B), posted by SLRT on Fri May 22 12:11:05 2020.

Here are the questions I have:

Do you have sources for the fact that the number 10 was assigned to the service in 1924?

In another post you said "Midday and Sunday service began in January 1924. On January 14, service began operating during middays, and until 8:01 pm from Chambers Street. Service on Saturday middays until 8:58 from Chambers Street started on January 19, and service on Sunday started on January 20, leaving Metropolitan Avenue from 12:27 to 10:27 p.m, and leaving Chambers Street from 1 to 11 p.m..". Where did you get this information?

Do you know when specifically in June 1933 Sunday service was eliminated and have a source for this?

According to Eric Bolden, on June 28, 1952, Saturday service began running local. Do you know of a source for this claim?

I also don't have sources for these claims:

  • M assigned to the service in 1961, but initially only signed for Bankers Street Specials. (SOURCE NEEDED)


  • Officially designated M after the Chrystie Street changes of November 27, 1967, but did not appear until rolling stock with appropriate roll signs arrived to the route. (SOURCE NEEDED)


  • Some time between 1969 and 1973, the SS shuttle was folded into the M, and the span of M service was expanded by an hour to 8 p.m. (SOURCE NEEDED)
