My great uncle took my from his home on Hull Ave and we walked to the 204th St station. From there, we took an AM rush hour "Q" train to Chatham Square and rode back in a set of vestibuled MUDC's. It was the second week in April of 1955 and I was on Easter vacation, as they used to call it. Not quite 7 years old, but I never forgot that trip! Also, I was fortunate to ride the "Q's" on Myrtle Ave, before its abandonment on October 4th, 1969, my 21st birthday! |
