Posted by Chris R16/R2730 on Sun Feb 11 12:04:31 2007, in response to Re: THE ORPHANS OF CHRYSTIE STREET, PART 1 THE RJ, posted by Newkirk Plaza David on Sun Feb 11 11:13:33 2007. Wrong. The "brown R" wasn't even born until May 1987 and was eliminated on 11/24/87. The M and Nassau St. R routes co-existed on 4th Ave for more than a year and a half. In it's final year, it never operated as seen on the maps. During the morning rush, most trains leaving Metropolitan Ave. were diamond R's headed for 95th St. Only a few M's to Bay Parkway were scheduled. Almost all the M trains headed northbound from Bay Parkway were put-ins from Coney Island. I wish I had a camera to document this service pattern, because if you did not experience it as a rider, you'd never know it ran this way. |
