Posted by handbrake on Sat Jan 7 16:28:48 2012, in response to Re: Abandoned Utica Ave Upper Level (Pix Coming Soon) & 76th Street Saga, posted by tunnelrat on Sat Jan 7 11:10:43 2012. Observation to the intersection of tracks A7/8 and K5/6, as well as the block wall have not happened as of present.From the descriptions you have provide, is the abandoned A7/8 trackway under the masonry wall of Type One or Type Two construction? As mentioned, the presence of dirt appears to coincide with another s observation made of a large dirt pile as being been present prior a masonry block wall being constructed at that location. Interesting comment though regarding the TA sealing off the trackways to keep people out. If for example only employees and designated contractor personnel, under flagging and or a GO, are allowed to enter the property normally closed to the public, then who did the TA want to keep out from entering that abandoned and trackways? There are restrictions with regards to casual entry upon an active trackway in the subway. An individual authorized to enter upon the tracks must have in their possession a current track safety certification, wear and carry approved personal protective equipment (Safety Battle Rattle), a two portable VHF radio tuned to the sub-division command channel, and must notify the sub-division control center desk prior to entering/leaving upon the trackway. Not that a teenager would concern themselves with the above requirements. |
