What was so bad about 169th as a terminal? There are plenty of switches east of it and I'm sure one of the 2 services used Parsons Blvd as it's terminal (I'm guessing the F) during this time. It was Rockaway Ave. that was a bad intermediate terminal, which is why Broadway-ENY was the first station opened when construction on the IND resumed in 1945. |
