Fresh Pond had the curbs of the original ballast platform, and they were still there. It also had a primitive shed, as well as the stairways for the crossover. Other than Richmond Hill, Fresh Pond had the most "amenities" out of any of them!Fresh Pond Station, 1990. Here's the old shed, which was there to the end:  Here's a photo from 1991. The remnants of the original curb of the westbound platform side is on the left, the "wall" side. The train is stopping at the "island" platfrom of the eastbound side. The remnants of that curb is also still there. The other track to the right of that is the Bushwick Branch. Amazingly, this was an ACTIVE open station at the time of this photo!:  |
