Actually the 'G' train, which only serves Brooklyn and Queens, terminates in LIC at one of the major transfer stations (where one can connect to the 'E', 'M', or '7' trains).
- danharaj 7y agoHaving the G in your commute is almost as stressful as taking the L.
- betterunix2 7y agoTrue, though it was (slightly) better when I was a teenager -- back then it went all the way to Forest Hills and the trains had six cars (R46 equipment for the subway nerds).
- jacques_chester 7y agoHence "probably". The G is a single line for two very large boroughs. Meanwhile, almost every line in the system passes through Manhattan.
- betterunix2 7y agoThe G is not the only train connecting Brooklyn and Queens directly, though it is the only such line to go to LIC. The J goes directly from Queens to Brooklyn before Manhattan, as do the A and the M. There is also the Atlantic branch of the LIRR, which connects Brooklyn, Queens, and Nassau county (though the fares are higher).
