Tuscarora Almanac for December 19

Tuscarora Almanac for December 19

1953 – for The Book of Last Runs

This will be the last day of operation for the two-track stub end terminal at Franklin Avenue on the Newark City Subway. This is being done to allow construction of a loop to turn the new PCC cars. Service is cut back temporarily to Anthony Street. The new loop is placed in service on December 21, 1953.

2017 – from The Book of First Runs

A free transfer point is opened between the Chambers Street -World Trade Center station on the IND Eighth Avenue Line (E train platform) and the Cortlandt Street station of the BMT Broadway Line (R,W(also N nights).

Note: This adds on to an already existing transfer point to the IRT Park Place station.

Larry, RedbirdR33

This connection is at least the fourth location where IRT, IND, and BMT routes are part of a free transfer complex.

The others are Times Square, Fulton Street, and 14th St-6th/7th Avenues. The Times Square transfers expanded in 2021 when the 42nd St shuttle was connected to the IND 6th Ave platforms.
