THERES PLENTY OF EVIDENCE OF IT..

The IND just didnt "come along"..it was a hodge podge of PLANNED BMT ROUTES that the city built with plans of turning them over to the BMT to operate[go ahead and say there no evidence of THAT,too]

During AND after the IND construction,the BMT continued to pusg for it uptown route alongside the IND using a two deck tunnel under CPW..while the IND would have settled for trackage rights,meaning a connecting tunnel between 59th and 72nd[see 1939-49 expansion plans]..

whatever the case may be..having a Bway branch heading uptown on the west side would actually add service..helping the 7th ave route..in the same manor the SAS will drain the over flow from the LEX..AND REDUCE the amount of transferees using the 34th st complex..
