           yea, im pretty sure to save money the MTA might demolish all existing els and fill up all open cuts [like the N] with water and use them as canals for ships and charge a heavy toll on that. Im also pretty sure the MTA will soon remove all Express service to save maintenance and crew costs . Also to save more money they will retrofit all r68s,R46 and even bring back the R44s to make them NTT compatible and retrofit them to look like the R160s Instead of ordering a new stock. Oh and they will stuf the r32s into the IRT by cutting them in half ,removing a portion and then welding them back  together . And dont forget they are removing all HVACs and AC systems to save energy costs.

Honestly what difference would it be if it was a (C) or AA?  It's still the same thing, plus C is easily more distinguishable then AA anyway.

This makes absolutely NO sense! What difference does it make? Its still gonna be the same route as the (C). Not to mention they would have to change those rollsigns on the R32's. Might aswell leave the designation the way it is.

The (N)(Q) Astoria Service will get cut next.The (N) will run to 71 Av replacing the (M) which will get cut back to 57-6th as a terminal.
The (Q) will run to 57th-7th.
People will need to transfer at 42nd for the (7) which everyother will run via the Astoria El saving money gap fillers will be installed.
Also when the RTS's get retired from WestFarms they will run on the Dyre cutting the Dyre (5)/(S) service.

k that was the NYCTA... The AA becakse the K in the 80's and it ran LIKE THE C but ended at World Trade instead of Euclid Ave. Also, the double letter system was done away with for various reasons, including tourists. Also, what are you gonna do with the Fulton Local?

Okay how about this
(C) Elimnated
(A) Local To Lefferts Blvd Weekdays 11:00 Am To 11 Pm
(A) Express To Far Rockway Weekends All Day
Too long of a route, and how will people easily know the difference between each one?
