Interesting that they ran Brighton Expresses on Saturdays at all in 1961, and all day too. I thought that was always M-F only, plus Saturday mornings before WW II (roughly). And Franklin Ave. still had full-length platforms, in good enough condition to serve as the main destination of Brighton locals, even if only one day a week. I guess that meant 8 cars, there were never 10-car platforms there, right? So the other six days a week it was a shuttle like today, but Saturdays it was the primary local service? I'd heard about the "Sunny Summer Sunday" thru service from Franklin, but that was supplemental to local service to Manhattan, no? |
