Actually, it was a bit more cynical than that ... who was the governor at the time? And what well-known "Center" is on "Avenue of the Americas" (are ya LISTENING, Allende?) around 50th? Ayup ... THAT'S why! Not kidding, Ronan STILL was more concerned about anything bad happening on "Avenue of the Americas" that he'd jam ANY other part of the railroad to keep things from dying THERE. B&D trains to Queens, F's and KK's to the Bronx, whatever it took to "clear the Rocky and Bullwinkle show." But THAT is why it was so critical. Once upon a time, it WAS possible to route an 8th avenue local into DeKalb as well but that option was never taken. It was ALL about ... ROCKEFELLER Center ...Anything else could be routed to Jersey for all Ronan cared. |
