I think most don't realize it until they hear "This is the last stop on this train"

"You think most riders know they are on the wrong train?"

I do not understand this. GojiMet86 and others keeps going on and on about Astoria riders getting flumoxed because they do not understand that a handful of N-trains (disguised as Q-trains or not) went to 96th Street/2nd Avenue.

He posits that such uptown riders going past the 57th Street-Seventh Avenue station would not know that they are headed in the wrong direction.

Even allowing for folks listening on their cell-phones with ear buds, I'm wondering one thing.

Let's see, after 57th Street-Seventh Avenue, there's two stops - Fifth Avenue, and Lexington Avenue. Then a long fast subway tunnel trip!

THEN DAYLIGHT! As Astoria bound N and W trains emerge from the under the East River directly to the Queensboro Plaza elevated station!

Just how does a regular routine Astoria rider "miss" that their train after a few stops is NOT OUTSIDE??

I'm sorry if this "beating a dead horse" or "pissing on the third rail". But come on.

Mike
