Oh, and just to add, the stairways to street level to the Woodhaven platforms were sealed pretty good. We gained access through a huge hole that took you under the platform, and onto the trackbed. It was like the Twilight Zone when we found this station (we had no idea it existed). One day, my friend and I borrowed my father's car (I didn't have one at the time yet), and we "railfanned" the Hempstead, West Hempstead, and Brooklyn line with the car (taking photos of the stations, random trains coming through, etc. When I was driving down Atlantic Ave, we stumbled upon the Woodhave station. We almost had a heart attack seeing it. We had NO clue it existed. I quickly parked, and the rest is history, I took the photos Douceman has seen before..... |
