Posted by italianguyinsi on Mon Aug 26 22:43:31 2019, in response to Arnines on the BMT - photos - early years, posted by Express Rider on Sat Aug 24 15:34:52 2019. In addition, the first image of R-1 #103 purports a time frame of 1930-1931, prior to IND 8th Avenue opening in 1932 - however if you look closely at the roof of the platform, you will see fluorescent lamps - these didn't exist on the Sea Beach in 1931 (or any other IND or BMT line at that period in time).Earliest -subway- installation was 1948 with Euclid's IND station, and the Southern Division (els and open cuts) didn't get them installed until the early 1980s on surface and elevated lines. |
