Yes, but notice where the service ran as it was "thru-routed". The Brighton line is the major BMT route to CI and gets the heaviest patronage. It lost all but a few Broadway trains and became the line which the IND route dominated. Everything possible was done to make the D the only real alternative to Brighton riders, with the odd NX and handful of rush-hour QB's. Even the local was removed from Broadway and replaced with the far less desirable Nassau St (QJ, then M) service. |
