As I mentioned in several posts on the subject, the unique construction of the Myrtle el RR north of Bway made rebuilding the stations for 10 ft wide cars prohibitively expensive. On the other hand, rebuilding those stations with outside platforms would have allowed the girder work at those stations to be modified since thee reason the were constructed that way was to clear the stairways to the street which had to pass under the trackways. |
