I will always feel that the branch offered the best option for rush hour train travel into Manhattan from central Queens (other than Jamaica, of course). Even though my 1950 schedule shows a paltry number of trains running up it.In some ways it reminds me of what I've read about another early in-town "suburban" rail line, the Erie Newark branch through Belleville and Nutley. I've always been fascinated by "suburban" train stations located in a city. It's like a history lesson, the way they once were really suburban stations, and wound up being completely subsumed by the dense urban growth around them. |
