I think he was referring to the length of the middle track. The aerial maps I've seen show the middle track extending quite a ways east of the Hinsdale St. station itself. The distance from Van Sinderen to the end of this track (also the end of the 1915 dual contract rebuild) could be about half a mile. I bet that track was covered end to end by Broadway Brooklyn locals taking either the midday or weekend off. Putting them in the ENY yard would have required a reverse move into and out of Atlantic Avenue. |
