Posted by MainR3664 on Mon May 1 14:12:38 2017, in response to Re: East 180th Street (4/10/17), posted by JOE @ NYCMTS - NYCTMG on Mon May 1 10:30:54 2017. Got it. Thanks. Keep the Flickr uploads coming!!!I was born in 1968- the year of the "Plan for Action"- but my mom was already in her 40s (surprise!), so she had good memories of the old Els and trolleys. She told me all about the 3rd and 2nd Avenue Els and Penn Station. But the NYWB, Putnam Line+branch, SIR North Shore/South Beach, I figured out all on my own. Both my parents are still alive- but Mom is getting a little fuzzy now. Dad's memories are good- but he was less interested. He arrived from Scotland in 1959, and applied for a bus driver's job in Harlem- (I guess Surface Transportation?)- he didn't get the job. He remembers the Bowling Green Shuttle - but wouldn't known the difference between a Lo-V and a SMEE. I suspect a lot of riders feel the same way, even today. |
