Posted by GP38/R42 Chris on Wed Jan 16 19:16:13 2008, in response to Re: G Train to be cut back to Court Square permanently, posted by The Port of Authority on Wed Jan 16 18:47:32 2008. Most people got off at Metropolitan Avenue/Grand Street, Court Square, or Queens Plaza to transfer to a Manhattan-bound train. The total number of people that stayed in my car after Queens Plaza was 3, and it probably diminished after that.That's been my observations too. While the G is a vital link to the area it goes through in Brooklyn, most of those people want Manhattan, not Queens Blvd. Sure, there are a few that travel between the QB line and Crosstown but it's only a very small percentage of the people that ride it), most get off at Metropolitan (to take the L), Court Square or Queens Plaza (to get Manhattan). I sympathize that Queens Plaza is easier than Court Square, but the G going further than that is nothing more than a steping stone to another line. The G's plight is not that it doesn't run on Queens Blvd, it's plight is that it doesn't go to Manhattan, but unfortunately, that was by design. |
