The Dyre Line had the stop arms on the right (IRT) side since it used IRT cars. The Astoria Line also had trippers on the right since it was an IRT line over which the BMT only had trackage rights and had to share trackage with IRT cars. The Myrtle Av El as well as all the BMT els that used narrow wooden cars had to have the stop arms on the left (BMT) side since they shared trackage with BMT steel cars.
