Re: Platform Lengths - BMT Eastern Divisiion routes

Posted by GP38/R42 Chris on Mon Mar 11 13:54:05 2019, in response to Re: Platform Lengths - BMT Eastern Divisiion routes, posted by AlM on Sun Mar 10 19:51:50 2019.

Metropolitan Ave is a huge hurdle. The other stations are original length BMT stations, but Metropolitan is not. It was shortened when it was rebuilt after the fire in the 70's. I think it's almost exactly the length to fit 8 60 foot cars, and the interlocking and room are right at the end of the platform.
That said, I don't think ADA would be a problem there as it already is ADA compliant and is at street level.
