Posted by SUBWAYMAN on Sat Apr 30 20:54:32 2005, in response to Age of the Els Re: To el or not to el, that is the question!, posted by GP38/R42 Chris on Wed Apr 20 14:15:21 2005. Jamaica/Broadway El:-Essex to Marcy - Sept 16, 1909 -Marcy to Myrtle - Jan 17, 1916 (replacement of older el) -(Myrtle to Central) - July 29, 1914 (replacement of older el) -(Central to Wyckoff) - July 1, 1918 (replacement of older el) -(Wykcoff to Fresh Pond) - Feb 22, 1915 -Myrtle to Alabama Ave - Dec 21, 1916 -Alabama to Cypress Hills - 1893 -Cypress Hills to 111th St - May 28, 1917 -111th St to 168th ST - July 3, 1918 The section of el from Marcy Ave to roughly Lexington Ave has lattice pillars from 1888, it was rebuilt under traffic, so some orginal steelwork remains. The stations, with the exception of Marcy Ave were rebuilt. Also, doesn't the section of el at Van Siclen Ave station date back to 1885? |
