But we're talking about grown up train lines :)

haha, the G cracked me up the one time I took it. Still sorta can't believe that little thing is for real!

Ha! Sure, it carries much fewer riders but it's still the same idea. They shared one tunnel going back and forth. - Krusty Jan 13, 19:03 4
- It seems like it would be much more useful to a lot of folks if it continued to Roosevelt Ave, as I think it can. - ty97 Jan 13, 19:07 3
  - It used to go out to 71st Ave and Kew Gardens. I guess they felt there wasn't enough ridership to keep it going out there. - Krusty Jan 13, 19:14 2
    - I think I read that there was just too much congestion from the E/F/M/R trains that the line could not also handle the G. - ty97 Jan 13, 19:16 1
      - I didn't know that. It went to Queens Plaza for a while when I first got here but they cut it to Court Sq. - Krusty Jan 13, 19:36
