Well, according to some IND old timers, A7 and A8 were used for certain drill moves from Pitkin Yd and I personally saw the area where there had been switches connecting A7 and A8 to A5 and A6 yd leads with associated signals still in place. Now that I think about it, when I first went in there in 1962, I think the signals were still illuminated even though the switches were removed, so it wouldn't surprise me if the switches remained until just around that time. It seems that I heard somewhere that originally, all there was at the end of the current Pitkin subway mainline was a temporary wooden wall which was replaced by the current concrete bulkhead around the time that Grant Av station was completed. |
