This was discussed here about two years ago. I always thought that the LIRR operated that service from the Sands St Loop and Atlantic Ave to Jamaica. |

The BRT obtained its Brooklyn Bridge franchise to Park Row, when it took over the Kings County RR in 1899. The LIRR began service from the High St Loop around the same time. |
