Those "bellmouths" however were not intended to go to Staten Island. At one point in the construction of the extension of the original 4 Av subway from 86 to 95 st, It was planned to construct a small underground storage yard S/O 95 St since storage has been a chronic problem for the 4 Av Line since its construction. I have heard that those trackways actually extend a few blocks past the tunnel wall but since they continue straight rather than follow under 4 Av, they would be under private property and difficult to trace.
