These are valuable, historic, excellent and simply awesome photos!Thank you so much for posting and sharing! Though I've seen a couple of these photos (and I think purchased a a couple from Walter Broschart at NY Div meetings in 1967 or 68), stations have never been identified - so the fact that you've researched locations is very welcomed. And Herman Rinke's rooftop shot - excellent! Rooftop shots were a favorite of Steve Zabels's so many years later when he took photos of IRT lines in the Bronx. I was around for the end of the Myrtle and Boston's Orange line el (north and south) in Boston, but was too young for this one - born in June 1950, this ended that October. And my Dad went into the service for Korea in early 1951 (the "doctor's draft" - he was a dentist). Once again, these are great!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!! |
