A train "called" the DD operated in 1962 due to the closure of the 6th Av Line between 34/6 and W 4 St but in contradiction of the train signs it operated via 8th Av rather than 6th. A Concourse express operated in rush hours between Bed Pk and 34/6 but it also had an incorrect designation being called a "C/8 Ave Express" even though it operated via 6th Av. The proper thing to do would have been to call the 205 - Stl service the CC and the Bed Pk - 34/6 the D but typical of the incompetent and know nothing planners that existed in the TA and continue to exist in today's MTA, misnamed trains operated during that period. |
