As a kid I used to love seeing the Brighton trains in the open cut. I remember the thrill I used to get at Empire Blvd peeking through the rectangular oval holes in the cement for design purposes (perfect for a kids eye view)looking down at the Franklin Shuttle. (I actually thought that was their purpose, so a kid could see the trains go by.) I felt bad for all the little railfans who would not be able to do this after they filled in the holes with cement. By that time I was tall enough to see over the top. |
