Re: [PHOTO] Lexington Ave. el - UPDATE

When did the El (either IRT or BMT) start putting up full-height wood "walls" so you couldn't see over the side of the metal railing at the back side of the platform? I assume it was for safety as well as to stop yutes from throwing debris over the railing onto cars or pedestrians.

I would guess the early or mid 60's. I may be wrong.
