The reason the Fulton subway ended at Rockaway Ave so long is because while the Broadway-East New York (Junction) station was already built and tiled, WWII rationing kept metal from being able to be installed for the signalling and the tracks east of Rockaway. If they had the metal, they could have at least terminated at Bway Junction. The Shells for Liberty, Shepard, Van Siclen and Euclid were also begun vefore construction stopped because of the war.
