Since i,ve been in da-bronx since wednesday,i,m coming in late on this post&won`t read ever post.here`s what I know for a fact.179st&the upper&lower levels were constructed BEFORE WWII.the tunnels stop at 184st& nothing was built beyound the bulkheads.this was told to me by vincent seyfried who grew up in an apt.building at 184st&watched construction of the ind.from his window.the upper level was supposed to go to little neck p`way as a 2-track line past 184st,thats why the wooden wall is there.the tracks for the upper level were put in sometime in the late `50`s I hope this will answer some questions about this line. |
