Re: Nostrand Avenue (A) Station

There were a few mistakes made when the dual contracts were planned some of which were corrected during construction. I have a PSC report that indicates that 49 St was supposed to be a lcl stop and 57 St a lcl stop on the BMT when it was actually built as the opposite. Although i hve no documentation, I had heard that Dekalb was supposed to be a lcl stop but during construction it was changed to an exp stop but since construction was already well underway, it was configured the current way as an exp stop with the bypass tks. The choices of what stations would be express and what stations would be lcl often seem to defy logic. While Myrtle/Wyckoff on the el was made an express station in anticipation of an express service which never happened, no such provision was made anywhere on the Jamaica Line.
