The next available photo is from 1951, a time when the connection to the Liberty El had not yet taken place.
If there was a heyday for 76th St layups that would have been it. Notice in that pic, you can tell from the shadows that Pitkin Av has been raised along with Ruby St south of Pitkin and 76th St north of it.

A concrete shell sticking out besides and under Pitkin would have been visible on the still unbuilt intersection under such circumstances as well as other telltale signs of a still somewhat active station.
