Posted by Joe V on Sat Jun 22 11:36:02 2019 At least on their Service Status page to distinguish among the gray S's.They should make them X, P, H |

I always found 3 gray S's annoying. They need to be visually distinguished. Sometimes, you'll see an R46 with a blue S ona RockPark Shuuttle, but that is supposedly intended for the overnight Lefferts Shuttle, yet they do not see 8th Avenue either, which is what blue means. |

Right> I say designate the Rockaway Shuttle as the H, the Times Square Shuttle as the 8- and the Franklin can remain the S. It would be much easier, especially for out-of-towners, to understand. |
