Actually, it wouldn’t have been a round about move at all since the composites were maintained, inspected and laid up at one of the Bronx yards anyhow so they could have had the subway shoes installed there for the transfer move. Then rather than go south on the 3 Av El they could merely go south via the Westchester Av structure to 138/Gr Conc the way the Lex Expresses do, change ends at 138 middle and proceed straight up the Jerome line on either the N/B lcl tk or the middle tk to Mosholu Yd where the modified subway shoes could be installed. It really wouldn’t have been any more labor intensive that going through So/Fy and would actually taken less time since they probably would have had to go to Mosholu Barn anyhow for final outfitting and inspection. |
