Re: Tuscarora Almanac for November 22

Thank you, as always.

Two thoughts- 1950 was a terrible year for the LIRR. Two accidents, each with a lot of fatalities and the Rockaway trestle fire.

And Thanksgiving weekend 1967 must've been fascinating for subway fans- new trackage and routes and a new station opening- a major service expansion. Perhaps some mourned or still mourn the end of the Nassau St connection to the Manhattan Bridge. In any event, I have an original NYCTA map from when Chrystie opened. My Mom let me have it around 1978, when she would have otherwise thrown it out, but she knew how much I liked transit stuff.
