It's incredible for a document dated 1944 to reflect exactly what was built and opened in 1956 (for the Liberty Av connection anyway), given the number of revisions to IND plans that happened in that time frame. Where did you find that diagram?I hadn't considered the possibility that K5/K6 were a branch of A7/A8. So there may be some further tunnels heading towards the mainline. It's also likely that the chaining changes right at the point of that planned diverging switch. I suspect the K5/K6 connector was built with the mainline tunnel, which may also explain how A7/A8 were used as yard layup tracks - it's possible that they may have gone as far as the north side of Pitkin Av. |
