Did George Horn and/or Martin Schachne ever speak about 76th St.?I knew Marty Schachne for many years. We spoke of his trips with George Horn on several occasions and according to him 76th Street was never built. Dave Rogoff drew a detailed track map of the entire IND in the early 60's which has the the full track diagram for the proposed 76th Street Station but the map clearly states that it was never built. One cannot prove a negative. I was fortunate to have made the acquaintance of several of the men who were prominent in the railfan community in the late 50's and early 60s. Gentlemen like Marty Schachne, George Horn, Roger Arcara, Herman Rinke, Dave Rogoff and Bernard Linder. Some of these guys grew up with the IND. If there had been a station shell built at 76th Street they would have known about it. Larry, RedbirdR33 |
