There are indeed cheap hotels in Brooklyn and Queens. Not everybody can afford the Ritz Carlton

Of course there are, but not along the G train. They are just slightly starting to pop up along the L line (such as at Halsey), but the L train is a few steps ahaead of the G for tourist travel, and even the L is a relative low use tourist line, and it's even light years ahead of the G with that.

Notice that I also said business visitors. They are not tourists (but they could be if they stay for longer than business requires).


Still not really many hotels, if any along Layaette St, Marcy, Union, etc.

Another reason is, frankly, that extending the G train costs more $$ for crews and that expense is neede elsewhere

Yes, that's more like it, not "tourist" confusion in this particular case.

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.

Of course, your premise is absolutely correct. Just don't use "tourist" and "G Train" in the same sentence, and you are fine.
