Under “normal” circumstances, on both Sat and Sun Fkln trains ran lcl on the Brighton Line to supplement the local service which actually ran exp in Manhattan even though the trains were signed as “Brighton Locals.” On Sundays during the summer, Franklin trans ran exp on the Brighton Line through Stillwell and up the Sea Beach middle tracks in both directions and terminating at Chambers St. The Fkln crews only operated between Fkln and Stl where extra crews either on OT or from the extra list operated to Chambers and back. I’m not sure how long the Fkln Shtl platforms actually were buy I was told that although 8 ABs could clear the switch at Dean St, 8 cars would not be able to berth at the Fkln Av platform. All the movies I’ve seen of the Sunny Summer Sunday specials show 4 car trains of ABs which would be one 3 car B unit and a single A car. |
