Guest Charles Posted June 21, 2010 Share #578 Posted June 21, 2010 Ah the (V)s days are limited...I seriously think (and still do) the has/had potential to be extended or whatever to make it into a route with much more ridership than it currently has. That said, in the (V)'s defense, I would like to say that the was able to successfully do its job. Upon entering high school, I have taken the same out of Continental Av every morning for four years. The was essentially created to ease crowding on the and and provide QB local riders with direct access to 53 Street. Stations like Lexington and 5th Avenue didn't suffer from the massive crowds like it did. While the was no means consistently packed like the express or its counterpart, it still got its fair share of riders. The is, in a way, the "ideal" rush hour train: It gets enough ridership during rush hours but at the same time it's not packed to a sardine can to make you feel claustrophobic. While the had its haters, (see the 53 St/63 St debacle, etc), the bottom line is, the was efficient, useful, and it served the residents of Queens Blvd and 6 Avenue well.

T to Dyre Avenue Posted June 21, 2010 Share #580 Posted June 21, 2010 I agree too. It could be extended to Brooklyn via the Rutgers St tunnel or to Lower Manhattan via Chrystie St and Chatham Sq as part of SAS phase 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridgewoodian Posted June 26, 2010 Share #595 Posted June 26, 2010 I was in the second to last car - car 9, I guess - and I wouldn't call it a riot. More of a party. Like New Year's Eve. Yeah, there were cops but it wasn't like they were taking anyone out in cuffs. It was a good time on the last run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
