What I find interesting is that all the 3rd rail in the area is subway type yet when the Culver el first opened it used el cars exclusively until the Nassau St line opened and even after that 5 Av el trains continued to share the Culver with subway trains until the el was demolished in 1940. According to the BMT old timers I worked with Culver El shuttles continued to operate between Stl and 9 Av for a short period after the 5 Av el came down. |
