It was really around 1996-1997? Jeez, I don't know why I remember something from that long ago, maybe I have good memory. Honestly though, I never really remembered any Flatbush Avenue-Hempstead trains, maybe it's because I wasn't really that much of a railfan back then and just used the LIRR for the beach and my friends house in Brentwood. That is interesting that the LIRR cut service though, as ridership from Flatbush Avenue-East New York seems to have been increasing over the years, and will probably skyrocket once Barclays Center opens (in which that case there will have to be 3 trains a hour).On somewhat of an unrelated note when Barclays Center opens and ridership hopefully skyrockets, the LIRR will finally realize that they treat East New York and Nostrand Avenue like crap and rehabilitate them (Nostrand Avenue isn't that bad, it's just dangerous, if you walk at the wrong place when it's icy outside, you can easily fall on the busy Atlantic Avenue below, East New York is a cave with a few artificial lights). |
