On the LIRR, that's how it was prior to zone fares in 1975. Everything west of Jamaica was the same except Penn Station.They even had a couple of Hunterspoint trains stopping at Forest Hills or Kew Gardens. That latter may have been a consolation prize for not running on the lower Montauk and stopping at Richmond Hill. That stopped in the early 1970's. Then they went to zone 1A (Kew Gardens - Penn Station) and everything else west of Jamaica was Zone 1B. You could buy a 10-trip supplemental for $2 that upgraded a 1B monthly ticket to 1A. In the 1980's LIRR got neurotic obsessive compulsive with fare zone merging, and abolished it. |
