Actually, the platform lengthenings in Manhattan and along 4 Av in Bkln didn't start until after Chrystie opened. When Chrystie opened in 1967, the only BMT platforms capable of accommodating 10 car rains were those on the Brighton Line. In the event of a reroute over any of the other lines only the first 5 cars of a rerouted train could open at the first station on the "foreign" line and passengers would then have to be discharged and the train run light.
