Most of the folks that lived on the hill took what was the #10 and #10A bus (became the 100) down to either 231 IRT, or down to 225 for the Central there. Yes, Riverdale was on the map but it was largely disused because the "stop" there was just a small platform and was a whistle stop because way back when, it was just a path down the hill, nothing really formal and about the only folks that used it were railroad employees.When I was growing up there and the Central was still in business, had a number of friends whose dads worked for the railroad, so got to do a large amount of cab rides with them on weekends. It's a real station now that Riverdale got built up, but it wasn't always. |
