Lance Posted September 14, 2014 Share #469 Posted September 14, 2014 I had to dig this one up for this special occasion. I'm actually surprised no one has mentioned this already, but on this date 50 years ago, the first R32s entered service on what is today's line. Here are a couple pictures of them making runs on that day. 14 September, 1964 R32 3365 in service at Brighton Beach (BMT Brighton Line) Taken by Joel Shanus 14 September, 1964 R32 3359 in service at Brighton Beach (BMT Brighton Line) Taken by Joel Shanus 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHV9218 Posted November 3, 2014 Share #474 Posted November 3, 2014 One of those Chambers St signs is still up on the IRT in the current station. It's half-painted over, but cool to see otherwise--survived two generations of new signs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Southbound 8the Ave. local track is immediately above this special track, designated D3 - the same designation as the Southbound E tracks from 53rd St. The Southbound E once stopped at this platform before rising and continuing it's Southward journey, either on track A1 or A3, depending if it was in local or express service. Today the E uses a crossover just North of the station to switch to the 8th Ave local tracks.
