That wasn't the only oddity regarding abandoned el lines on the NYCTS. Although the Fulton St el west of Rockaway Av was abandoned in 1940, the short 1/2 block long section of the el structure that was left up at Franklin Av to facilitate the transfer from the Fkln Shtl to the IND had the rail and ties completely intact although very rusty until at least 1959. That year I rode Franklin for the first time and saw the remains of the rails still there. When I returned some time later, the rails and ties had been removed and only the structure remained, but the rails and ties remained there for 20 years. |
