Posted by Andy on Sat Jul 5 08:34:51 2008, in response to Re: Staten Islanders unsatisfied with MTA bus service, posted by (SIR) North Shore Line on Sat Jul 5 00:48:45 2008. In the 1920's, as part of the Dual Contracts, a tunnel was begun that would have linked the 4th Avenue BMT between the 59th and 69th Street Stations with Staten Island. As many people have commented on SubTalk in the past, construction was stopped after about a year and never resumed. On the S.I. side the SIR would have been used, of course. At the same time the SIR electrified its lines with a 3rd rail and cars that could fit into BMT tunnels. |
