Yes, the free transfer between the #6 and the BMT trains that stopped at the Lexington Avenue station in 1948 - NOT the #4 or #5 express trains which went direct from 42nd Street-Grand Central to the 86th Street station.So yes the free-transfer PRE-DATED the construction of the #4 & #5 express level platforms, escalators, mezzanine access, etc. In the mid-1970's when I traveled that station frequently is was easy to tell the older parts of the station from the newer parts.
