The B did NOT run 600 ft trains immediately after Chrystie opened since at that time the only Southern Div line that could accommodate 10 car trains was the Brighton Line I was several years before the West End and Sea Beach lines had their platforms lengthened to 10 cars and the Bway and 4 Av subways also had to be completed before the entire Southern Div was able to run 10 car trains. When I was a M/M in 1969 and 1970, the B, RR and N were still running 8 car trains and that continued into at least 1970 when I became a T/D and was still dealing with 8 car trains on those lines. |
