Not only confused riders but confused crews as well. That Monday I was working the midnight tour at Astoria tower and after I was relieved, I traveled down the Bway Subway to see what I could and saw a N/B D train entering Canal St on the Bridge level. |

Indeed. I was on the NB platform from 5 AM or so watching, guiding riders, taking a pic or 2. I have a pic of an R11/34 displaying Jamaica w/o a route # or letter. IINM it was trying to be a QJ. |
