Posted by murray1575 on Tue Mar 3 18:35:22 2026, in response to Re: Tuscarora Almanac for March 34 and a Tuscarora Disdpatch, posted by gbs on Tue Mar 3 16:19:24 2026. A minor correction: when the Flushing and Astoria lines were built in the Dual Contracts era the contracts required that both lines be built to allow BMT subway cars to operate over them. However the platforms and third rail clearances as built only allowed for IRT subway trains or IRT and BMT elevated trains to use them. This was the case until 1949 when the Astoria line was modified to allow BMT subway trains to be through routed at Queensboro Plaza using the former IRT Second Avenue platforms. |
