Posted by Wallyhorse on Sat Oct 18 13:08:54 2025, in response to Tuscarora Almanac for October 18, posted by irtredbirdr33 on Sat Oct 18 09:17:02 2025. What they should have done was re-build it at least to Botanic Garden with 600' platforms that could allow for the (Q) in an emergency or G.O. that prevents it from going to Manhattan to reach there to transfer to the 2/3/4/5,I still would look at doing that and perhaps longer-term rebuild to two tracks with Franklin Avenue becoming two levels (I didn't realize previously until I saw photos north of the old Dean Street station that Franklin Avenue had been long a single track station). That as noted before would be part of a much longer-term plan to connect the existing Franklin Shuttle to the existing Myrtle Avenue EL (including a rebuild of the upper level of Myrtle Avenue) that would stops in between Myrtle-Broadway and the Franklin Avenue stops at Myrtle-Franklin and Tompkins-Marcy Avenue (transfer to the (G)) in a partial rebuild of the old Myrtle EL to connect the two lines. Such as noted before would be a "Black (V)" to Coney Island that would be a 24/7 local on Brighton. |
