Pelham Bay Dave Posted September 1, 2007 Share #3 Posted September 1, 2007 I just love the IND because I can really move that train unlike the BMT too many slow timers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebbieprops Posted September 2, 2007 Share #5 Posted September 2, 2007 I'll go with IND on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PATCOman Posted September 2, 2007 Share #6 Posted September 2, 2007 I go with BMT since with the IND, all the stations practally look the same. In addition, when an IND station gets renovated, then it looks entirely different from how it originally looked (i.e. Queens Plaza, Roosevelt Avenue, 59 Street, etc.) Plus the IND is 99% underground. The BMT has better station variety (elevated, underground, embankment, open cut), and a renovated station looks more original (i.e. Broadway local stations that used to have the "refrigator" tile) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamaica Express Posted September 2, 2007 Share #7 Posted September 2, 2007 as much as I love both of them very much....I'm gonna have to go with the BMT...it has much more service variety then the IND (but thats just my opinion) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastman346 Posted November 8, 2007 Share #16 Posted November 8, 2007 I think the BMT/IND poll doesn't really make sense. nothing personal against the author of the thread and poll. I'm just trying to make a point. but arent subway lines BMT in Brooklyn and then turn into IND lines in Manhattan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INDman Posted November 8, 2007 Share #17 Posted November 8, 2007 IND ALL THE WAY! I grew up using the 6th Ave line and I love it more then any BMT or IRT line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brighton Local Posted November 8, 2007 Share #18 Posted November 8, 2007 I think the BMT/IND poll doesn't really make sense. nothing personal against the author of the thread and poll. I'm just trying to make a point. but arent subway lines BMT in Brooklyn and then turn into IND lines in Manhattan? IND Routes: A,B,C,D,E,F,G,V BMT Routes: J,L,M,N,Q,R,S Franklin,W,Z -------------------------- However, it is safe to state, that the actual "line,route" they operate over in Brooklyn is named "BMT" ; from the previous decades when they were constructed. Brooklyn BMT Routes: BMT Brighton Line BMT Canarsie Line BMT Culver Line BMT Jamaica Line BMT Myrtle Av Line BMT Sea Beach Line BMT West End Line BMT 4th Avenue Line The Brighton, Culver, West End and 4th Av Lines however represent BMT, and OR IND trains as well. The BMT Brighton Line hosts: IND B Train, & The BMT Q Train The BMT Culver hosts: IND F Train The BMT West End Line hosts: IND D Train, & The BMT M Train The BMT 4th Avenue Line hosts: IND D Train, BMT M, N & R Trains --------------------------------- Hence; during Manhattan Bridge closures (example: July 2001- February 2004) with the loss of the IND 6th Av B and D Trains in Brooklyn, The Brighton, West End and 4th Av Lines are strictly BMT Trains.

R32 3348 Posted November 8, 2007 Share #21 Posted November 8, 2007 The IND. I live on the Queens Boulevard Line and Roosevelt Avenue is my home station. Also, when I think of the BMT, the first thing that comes to mind is the Eastern Division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
