Re: Lower Level platform 42nd & 8th Ave.

I took the trouble to look at my notes on Hylan. I have that it was the Towerman that was exiting the Navy Street Tower, that Hylan stopped in time and no was hurt.

Still, he was called into the office the next day (not at Ridgewood) and then was summarily fired. Up to that point he had a perfect record with the company, from trackworker to eventually get the prestigious job of engineer.

Some accounts say he was a motorman but this predated electric, the date of the accident was apparently February 1897l
