"I believe it was the UPPER level that had the connection to the Westchester Av Line since it was 2nd and later 3rd Av express trains which used the connection."

You are correct. When the structure was double-decked under the dual contracts, the upper level was connected via Bergen Ave. for express service to Freeman St. I remember riding the "alley el" as a child, and you could see the remnants where the structure had been cut off.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
