Re: BMT Canarsie Line history question.

5th Ave-Culver trains stopped operation to Park Row at about noon on May 30th, 1931. This was the same time/date that the Culver subway started service to Chambers St. Except for some rush-hour locals, Fulton St trains then ran to Park Row at all times. Rush hour Park Row service was supplemented with Lexington Ave trains. Myrtle Ave trains ran to Sands St and shared the Loop with all 5th Ave trains (and non rush hour Lex ones) until Oct 22nd, 1932, when it was gradually phased out (on March 10th, 1933, the Loop was closed to revenue traffic). After Unification (6/01/40), both Lexington and Myrtle trains operated to Park Row, until it was closed on March 5th, 1944, at a little past 12 Noon.
