Question About The (8) Third Avenue El |
|
Posted by Union Turnpike on Thu Feb 11 21:11:02 2010 At The JoeKorner, there is a historic I.R.T. A Division car assignment sheet from October 15, 1969 that shows the (8) Third Avenue ran five car trains and that eleven trains were needed for both the A.M. and the P.M. service.Two questions: Were these eleven trains rush hours or entire morning and afternoon service? The sheet doesn't show car assignments by line, so is it reasonable to assume the eighty Low V's listed as being in service were the fifty 1939-1940 World's Fair Lo V's and thirty Low V trailers that were operating on the (8) Third Avenue El in the 1960's? P.S. There is also a historic B.M.T.-IND. B Division car assignment sheet from the same date (October 15, 1969). |
