Interestingly, perhaps unlike the Broadway El and Myrtle el where they removed some stations (like Evergreen AVe on Myrtle and Park Ave on Broadway), it doesn't seem like they did that on Fulton.
The Fulton Rebuild bothers me to no end, being a big fan of the Eastern Division, that a beautifully rebuilt el was rebuilt and removed just 25 years later, one that was so identical to my favorite lines like Broadway El and Jamaica.
It's also so ironic that Fulton even got the express track which Jamaica never did....Jamaica needs it express track more than just about every el in the system (with the except of perhaps Flushing which obviously needs it more), and it was the only dual contract el other than Livonia that didn't get it. It's also one that would be heavily used today if it had been put in, unlike most of the others which sit idle.
