Re: New Lots Av/Junios St transfer question.

The walkway in the 60's was on the south side of the overpass. When I went to Jefferson and had my free subway pass, I added both the IRT at Penn. Ave and the BMT at Livonia, so I would take the IRT (last car) one stop (they were the Lo-V's at that time) and change for the LL at Livonia.
It did require taking the overpass and going to the mezzanine and then going upstairs to LL line. If I saw the L coming down the ramp, approaching Sutter, I was able to just catch it at Livonia. If it was at Sutter Ave., I could not make it.

I used to see people climbing over the fence where the exit gate was to get in for free.

I do remember that the closed the entrance to the Junius Station, so you had to walk two blocks after you got off the ramp, but I believe that was in the4 70's.

Before the rebuild of the New Lots Station, there was no fence between the LIRR and the L, so people could just walk up the embankment at Linden Blvd and enter the station at the platform level
