Posted by Chris R16/R2730 on Fri Oct 19 12:37:45 2012, in response to Re: Polo grounds shuttle was to be connected to Lenox Line, posted by Lou From Middletown NY on Wed Oct 17 20:16:04 2012. I know, and said transition made the move to CA easier, but air travel was still expensive and considerably slower. The 707 and DC8 really didn't begin impacting civil aviation until 1960. O'Malley still needed a western time zone team to play 22 times a year on the road, or be cursed into long flights on every homestand. Until 1960, virtually every Dodger or Giant road trip either began or ended in the other city.The flight from LA to NYC on a Lockheed Constellation took 10 hours and usually had at least one stop. |
