Posted by randyo on Tue Apr 10 15:00:27 2012, in response to Re: Rush hour J to 9 Av, posted by zac on Tue Apr 10 14:41:39 2012. I worked one of those AM runs as a New C/R in 1966. My first trip was a CIYd put in that went in service N/B at 25 Av. The train went eh Chambers St, changed ends on the H tracks and returned to 95 St where the signs were changed. the train then operated N/B as a bankers special lcl 95 to 59, exp and via the bypass over the H tracks of the Manny B to Chambers St. After a quick sign change the train continued to Broad St and vis the tunnel to 9 Av, returned from 9 Av to Chambers St relayed on the H tracks and returned to Bay Pky and laid up. Some of the later intervals went all the way through to Stillwell on the final leg. Since returning bankers specials went into West End Lcl service, 3 AM N/B W/E lcls discharged passengers at Chambers St and ran light to ENY Yd where they laid up midday and were put in service S/B in the PM as W/E lcls. Other W/E lcls ran light back to CIYd via the bridge. During this period, there were 5 AM Brighton Bankers' specials that ran N/B via the tunnel to Chambers St, discharged Passengers and ran light over the bridge back to CIY. The PM was pretty much the reverse of this process but there were only 3 Brighton bankers specials and 3 4 Av bankers specials which unlike their AM counterparts ran lcl via the bridge all the way to 95 St instead of express. |
