I don't remember pre-1954, but by the time I began to ride around the system at the end of 1956, the Culver-Nassau ran express on 4th Avenue and south through the Nassau Loop, skipping DeKalb both ways. Other hours, the Culver Local ran via tunnel both ways to Chambers Street.

I don't recall overnight at the time, but later on the Culver Shuttle ran 36-4 to Ditmas late nights and eventually 9th-Avenue-Ditmas full time. Even then the cuts weren't finished. The Shuttle operated with two tracks and two trains during most hours, eventually becoming the single track.
