Through service from Ditmas Ave. was a waste starting in Oct., 1954 (when the D train started running through to Coney Island). Demoting the line to a shuttle was somewhat less wasteful (the extra service down the West End line served many more passengers).However, as I said before, the smart thing for the TA to have done would have been to just close the section between 9th and Ditmas back in 1954 rather than have it linger on for another two decades. |
