Great photo.


"Canarsie elevated trains terminated at Rockaway Parkway and shuttle service operated between Canarsie Shore and Rockaway Parkway with trolley cars, October 26, 1917."


I was told from a informed source that the work train pictured was returning from the sand pits since sand was needed on outdoor platforms.

Makes sense, since the photo date was in February.
