There were three tracks on Coney Island Avenue for a stretch between Parkside and Caton, and a switching complex for Franklin Avenue cars to be turned back there. I wonder if any of that still exists?With the City so cheap, I don't see any reason to rebuild a road just because trolley tracks are buried there, unless the track was laid on wooden ties and they are rotting out. It's happened, creating a washboard effect. |
