The NYW&B was purchase by the city of NY prior to unification and was originally intended to be the Bronx branch of the SAS replacing the originally proposed Morris Pk Ave subway. There were originally no plans at all to connect it to the IRT whether unification was achieved or not. Even after unification the Dyre Av Line was administratively an IND line even though the Hagstrom maps showed it in IRT blue. It was only after the 1950 SAS bond issue failed and immediate hopes for the SAS that the NYCTA decided to connect the Dyre Line to the IRT. |
