As per typical IRT practice, there were probably 2 separate towers, one for the north end and one for the south end. The reason I say “probably" is because, certain IRT towers had separate interlocking machines for opposite ends of stations but both were located physically in the same tower structure. Nostrand Jct for example, had separate towers for the upper level and the lower level but both were in the same tower room. Whether or not the machines in the towers I described were ever in separate structure, I don’t know. They may have been moved together at some point in order to save labor so that one Tw/M could operate both machines. |
