How do you get to Brooklyn from Jamaica station?
There are a couple of stations in Jamaica, Queens, so I don't know which one you're talking about: there's the Jamaica-179th Street stop on the F line (of the B-D-F-M, the orange line), and there's also a Jamaica Center Parsons/Archer stop on the J-Z (the brown line) and E (of the A-C-E, the blue line).
The J-Z (the brown line) goes from Jamaica Center Parsons/Archer through north Brooklyn, and you can transfer to the L at the Broadway-Eastern Parkway Station.
The F goes from Jamaica-179th Street into Manhattan, and then back out to Brooklyn. Or, you can get off the F at Forest Hills-71st Avenue, and transfer to the R train (of the N-R-Q-W, the yellow line). The R train also goes into Manhattan, and then back out to Brooklyn (as do the Nand W). You can transfer from the R to the Nor W at the Lexington Avenue-59th Street stop in Manhattan.
You can also get from the J-Z or E (the Jamaica Center stop) to the F or R trains, if you wish. Take the E from Jamaica Center to Briarwood/Van Wyck Boulevard and transfer there for the F. Then you can transfer from the F to the R at Forest Hills-71st Avenue.
Or, you can get from the F to the J-Z. Take the F from Jamaica-179th Street to Briarwood/Van Wyck Boulevard, and transfer to the E. Take the E to Jamaica Center (or the stop before it, Sutphin Blvd Archer Ave) and transfer to the J-Z.
