Direction problem[edit]

As now written, this infobox has Marcy Avenue as the next station south, and Bowery as the next station north.

Unfortunately, the Marcy Avenue infobox has Essex Street as its next station south, and the Bowery infobox has Essex Street as its next station north. So, it appears that Bowery and Marcy Avenue should be "swapped" on this station's infobox.

The problem arises, I believe, because the original BMT configuration had Chambers Street as "north" for any train that passed through there, from either direction. But currently, I believe all of the infoboxes have Manhattan-bound trains on the BMT Jamaica Line as headed "south," leaving this page as the only anomaly.
