Posted by Express Rider on Fri Feb 23 20:40:48 2018, in response to Re: Tracks at Hoyt-Schermerhorn, posted by TUNNELRAT on Fri Feb 23 12:21:59 2018. I searched and found the post I was referring to. See the second post down. Also included other posts from the same thread. They are pasted in here:----------------------------------------------------------------- Re: Bellmouths and tunnel expansions Posted by Edwards! on Mon Sep 9 12:07:38 2013, in response to Re: Bellmouths and tunnel expansions, posted by GP38/R42 Chris on Mon Sep 9 11:09:04 2013. ... the original plan had the line leaving the Queens Blvd route at Queens Plaza...through the yards taking over the Rockaway lines row on the LIRR.. It was one track bidirectional express service. The 76th st subway tunnel would have connected to the QB local under Broadway and Steinway...[there is rumored there is a IND tunnel under that street built for that purpose,now used by the NYPD] The 63rd st tunnel/subway joined to two separate routes at 41av and Northern Blvd.. What missing is the Northern Blvd station that would have sat exactly where they are constructing the LIRR tunnel under that street. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Re: Bellmouths and tunnel expansions Posted by renee gil on Mon Sep 9 12:20:08 2013, in response to Re: Bellmouths and tunnel expansions, posted by Edwards! on Mon Sep 9 12:07:38 2013. The 76th st subway tunnel would have connected to the QB local under Broadway and Steinway...[there is rumored there is a IND tunnel under that street built for that purpose,now used by the NYPD] juat outside the Steinway ave station, there is a door [on the catwalk]. a look through the door will reveal a lower level tunnel. i'm pretty sure this tunnel was built for the IND Second System. a line [76th st subway tunnel] would have split away from the QB local tracks just outside of this station, and would have run across the East River and into Manhattan. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Re: Bellmouths and tunnel expansions Posted by renee gil on Tue Sep 10 00:04:17 2013, in response to Re: Bellmouths and tunnel expansions, posted by renee gil on Mon Sep 9 12:20:08 2013. it's on the southbound side btw. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Re: Bellmouths and tunnel expansions Posted by Elkeeper on Mon Sep 9 22:01:37 2013, in response to Re: Bellmouths and tunnel expansions, posted by renee gil on Mon Sep 9 12:20:08 2013. Does Tunnelrat know about this one??? ----------------------------------------------------------------- Re: Bellmouths and tunnel expansions Posted by renee gil on Mon Sep 9 23:53:46 2013, in response to Re: Bellmouths and tunnel expansions, posted by Elkeeper on Mon Sep 9 22:01:37 2013. of course. |
