Circa 1977-80, I went through a phase whereby I would bikeride along ground level LIRR ROWs and crisscross them at grade crossings. It's very easy along the Far Rock annd upper Long Beach lines; less so along the Main, Hempstead, West Hempstead and Oyster Bay lines. In September 1978, Lord Avenue crossed the ROW and ran uninterrupted north to Wanser Avenue. Now it's cut off between Bayview Avenue and the south side of the ROW.A look at Google Aerial Maps or the even better MSN Birds' Eye gives a pretty good perspective of Lord Avenue's 'ghost' section. |
