Re: Interesting Read: Original Destination and Route Designation for BMT Standards

another interesting destination is SEAGATE. Could there have very, very tentative thoughts/plans on the BRT drawing boards to have rapid transit take over the trolley route?

If Standards were to be used on a Sea Gate route, they would have been Culver trains. The long demolished overpass for the Norton's Point trolley line would have easily supported heavy steel cars. I guess Culver trains using the Norton's Point line would be a one seat ride to Sea Gate. However the BRT thought otherwise and made it a trolley route instead.
