I believe that the center track over Jerome was built to lay up 6th/9th ave el and Lex Ave subway cars. Plus, Burnside Ave is the only express station on the line. It was used mainly to terminate el trains. If they really wanted express service over Jerome, they would have made 167th St/River Ave an express stop and signalled the center track right up to the end. After all, it was the first stop northbound where the elevated and subway lines joined together.
