Re: Why 2 Terminals for Q1?

the Q17 is pretty much a ghost town south of Fresh Meadows. Makes you wonder why it even gets so much service south of Fresh Meadows in the first place.

Maybe the section of 188th St. between the LIE and 75th Ave. doesn't get much patronage because the Q88 along the same routing provides service to the Queens line resulting in a shorter subway ride (Woodhaven Blvd. station as opposed to 169th St. or 179th St.). Though if it were me I'd rather travel to the first stop (guaranteeing a seat) of an express train than a local-only stop in the middle of a crowded subray run.

But what about the rest of the stretch along 188th St., which used to be duplicated by the Q75 until that route was discontinued? Surely that can't be a ghost town now, can it?
