The original destination signs on the R-9s read simply "QUEENS - FOREST HILLS" which was simple and to the point. If I recall, the BMT steels read simply "FOREST HILLS" which was typical of many of the old BMT destination signs which gave only the area in which the terminal was located such as "ASTORIA," "CANARSIE," and "JAMAICA." Even "CONEY ISLAND" reflects this since the official name of the station is "Stillwell Avenue." |
