"The only reason I could see for a tourist ending up on the G train is an hypothetical cheap hotel."There are indeed cheap hotels in Brooklyn and Queens. Not everybody can afford the Ritz Carlton. Notice that I also said business visitors. They are not tourists (but they could be if they stay for longer than business requires). Another reason is, frankly, that extending the G train costs more $$ for crews and that expense is neede elsewhere. It sounds like your reasoning regarding the G train is ideological. Mne is about demand, customer-friendly planning and budget consideations. The more exceptions you make to rules (this train goes to A except late nights when it goes to B, and holidays when it goes to C) the less riders like it. And that doesn't just include visitors. Al riders complain about stuff like that. |
