Old IRT home signals |
|
Posted by SUBWAYMAN on Thu Oct 11 02:04:22 2018 When did the TA started to phase out the old-style IRT home signals? I know they were last phased out in the mid-2000s. |

The old style home signal was there at the north end of the middle track station platform. I do not know when they were removed, but mid-2000s was about right. Livonia Ave. was the location for another semaphore signal - it was at the end of the platform at what I think was the yard lead. Another one was on the south-bound local track between Moshulu Parkway and Bedford Park Blvd., but it was gone by the sixties. |
