Posted by randyo on Sun Jan 14 20:09:41 2007, in response to Re: A Shot From The Past, posted by Chris R16/R2730 on Tue Jan 9 17:19:28 2007. When the original post Chrystie Nassau/Brighton service started in 1967, it ran from 168/Jamaica to Brighton Beach as a Brighton Local and carried the designation "QJ." That servce utilized a mix of R-27s/30s and R-16s. D trains operated to Stl full time as Brighton expresses. Probably because of the aforementioned passenger complaints, especially the R-16s notoriously poor car heating, the R-16s were transfrerred to the RR and ultimately the EE. Due to switching problems at Brighton Beach caused by the Ds and QJs haveing to cross in front of each other, the next pick, the QJs were routed to Stl and the Ds terminated at BBC when they operated express and Stl when they operated local and the QJs stopped running. |
