More Brooklyn. We wandered into a maintenance yard, "boneyard", off the Culver Line and found all sorts of interesting stuff. Imagine trying to do this since 9/11/2001!!
Five car El train of convertible cars at the Jay St. end of the Myrtle Ave. el, closest to Manhattan, in August 1960, less than a week before replacement.
Former BRT Convertible el car 1306 in the "boneyard". Note it is equipped with trolley poles. These cars at one time ran over the Brooklyn Bridge and in the streets of Jamaica using overhead wire.
Here is one of the old el convertibles being used as a work motor with trolley pole on the wire at the cable warehouse.
Next week, the last three from Brooklyn taken at the "boneyard"
