Posted by BMT Guy on Tue Jan 24 23:10:48 2006, in response to LIRR Abandoned Station between ENY and Jamaica?, posted by MCI D4000 81994 on Sun Jan 22 22:11:25 2006. BTW, if you're in the head car of a Flatbush-Jamaica bound LIRR train w/o a transverse cab, you might be able to see a partiall turn-out (tunnel bell-mouth) about l,000 feet before the train comes out onto the elevated structure on Atlantic Avenue. The partiall turn-out was a planned connection to the original Brighton Beach line (currently, the Franklin Avenue Shuttle), during the early stages of the Atlantic Avenue Improvement (aka Brooklyn Grade-Crossing Elimination Project). There is a notation about it on the hand-drawn maps of noted LIRR historian, Robert Emery. |
