Posted by Dave on Thu May 18 21:28:23 2006, in response to Re: TM Nostalgia Train To Return This Summer - consist rumor, posted by South Brooklyn Railway on Thu May 18 18:39:54 2006. The BMT ran Q cars on the Flusing line to the World's Fair in 1939-1940. The BMT had trackage rights over the Astoria and Flushing lines. Because the clearances on those lines were for IRT equipment which BMT subways would not clear, the BMT needed to run their wooden elevated equipment over those lines. The Q cars started as open platform gated coaches in 1903 and 1907. |
