For the past year, I take the L almost always now, as I live slightly closer to Wyckoff, and coming from midtown, it's faster to just go to 14th, down the lfight of stairs from 6th Ave. or Bway, and then walk from Wyckoff. No having to wait for the F to Essex, and only the V comes, and then the hassle with the M getting lost on 4th Ave. or the J just missing one at Myrtle, and by the time the next one comes, the next J does catch up with that one! No hike up the narrow stairway at Canal either. The only thing is that I never get a seat on the L like I did on the M. All last pick, when accessing the 7th Ave line's uptown terminals; I even used the long passageway. Of course, these are the points you are making.Now, I only use the J to the M on Sundays when coming from CIYD, or when going to and coming from the ERA NY Div. meeting. in that case, being weekday, it is handy to not have to change to something else. I'm just used to it. Sometimes if I am in downtown Brooklyn, I'll get on the M at Lawrence, but usually; I take the F to Essex. That's faster. If I ever move up and get a job in NYCT headquarters, like I wish some day, I would stay on the M in the morning, and come back either way in the evening. Me; I'm all over the place, and there are times I would not want to lose the Nassau/Montague service, and other times; I prefer midtown service. Others, who are even more fixed to Nassau, may be against changing it. Some of course will prefer the midtown service. I can't speak for everyone else, so that's why I said it should be surveyed, and then weighed. But that's assuming they would even do it on weekdays, with the affect of the V it could cause. So to me, it is better for weekends. |
