Posted by Express Rider on Mon Jan 14 02:15:53 2019, in response to Re: Pop-Pop? Why …, posted by randyo on Mon Jan 14 01:34:05 2019. Which brings me to another question I've wanted to ask, but haven't gotten around to posting.Namely, on vintage pictures of street level BMT entrances, including one I found from the NY Historical Society from 1929, the BMT's green enamel signs include the southern div. lines Brighton, Sea Beach, West End, and Fourth Avenue, but no Culver line. I'm wondering why? Is it because the Culver was originally an elevated route, with its later el built by Andrew Culver for elevated train use at first, and only later served by BMT subway trains? Whereas, the Brighton, Sea Beach, and West End lines, were rebuilt exclusively for subway use under the Dual Contracts? (I'm well aware/admitting that not all the details in the above paragraph are "completely" correct! heh! - but thanks for any info you can give.) |
