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

It may also be that southern division routes were always referred to by name, rather than the BMT's route numbers due to colloquial "precident," - these were the original names of former steam RR routes begun a dozen or so years after the Civil War, to take travelers "to the seaside."

The original company names were similar and longer than the southern division route names later adopted by the BRT, and years before the an attempt was made to configure a route numbering system with the Triplex's front end signs.
