Don’t forget before it was raised to parallel the Brighton Line, it ran at grade using an irregular path near East 17 Street. That is why that street is wider south of Avenue X. The recently closed fork of East 17 Street near Jerome Avenue was the path of the railroad when it ran at grade. There are pictures of the railroad crossing at Sheepshead Bay Road. It continued through the buildings through Voorhies Avenue to the point you mention at E 14 and Neptune. The yard was the block between where Corbin Place is now and West End Avenue. |
