As for switching the C to 168th from Bedford Park Blvd., I suspect that had more to do with the C being a full-time line (seven days a week) while the B (which replaced it in The Bronx) is a part-time line (five days a week). They likely needed more service to 168 on the C than to Bedford Park Blvd. |
