Re: DUH! Even NYCT can't tell the one from the nine

As for lines, I'd rather use "IRT", "BMT", or "IND". Quick, and to the point. Best thing is that casual riders don't know what the hell you're talking about. :)


But even I don't know what the hell you're talking about if you "take the IRT to 125th Street" - that involves three different possibilities - are you taking the 1'n'9, the 2/3, or the Lex? And once you get into the Bronx, it's the 1'n'9, the 2/<5>, the 5 (Dyre), the 4 (Woodlawn) and the 6 (Pelham).

Now, if you tell someone you're taking the Sea Beach, the Culver or the Brighton Local down to Kings Highway, we all know what you're talking about, but the sheeple are perplexed :)
