Well, did they have some kind of door controls on the end car(s) to prevent certain doors from opening in the tunnels?Even if 169 St (and the other short stations) completely held 10 cars, how would an 11-car train use the station? It's a real mystery that some IND stations are way longer than 600', and a few are actually less than 600', with the 10-car marker in the tunnel by a few feet. Why? And at these short stations, the conductor's striped board is very short, because the stop has to be made pretty precisely. I'm guessing that when the train is at the 10-car mark, and the front of the train is in the tunnel by a few feet, that the back of the train is also in the tunnel by the same few feet. |
