Description
Deutsch: Der Bahnhof Gun Hill Road an der IRT White Plains Road Line (und IRT Third Avenue Line) im Jahre 1984.
Dieser Bahnhof entstand im Zuge der Doppelverträge als Knotenbahnhof zwischen diesen beiden Strecken, als sie beide über ihre bisherigen Endbahnhöfe in Höhe der 180th Street hinaus nach Norden verlängert wurden. Dabei benutzt die White Plains Road Line die obere Bahnsteigebene, und die Züge der Third Avenue Line fuhren auf der unteren Ebene. Da die White Plains Road Line zur Subway Division und die Third Avenue Line zur Elevated Division gehörten, kam es hier zu der Situation, dass eine (Elevated) Subway oberhalb einer Old El lag.
English: Gun Hill Road station on the IRT White Plains Road Line (and on the IRT Third Avenue Line) in 1984.
This two-level station was built during the Dual Contracts when both lines were lengthened northwards over their former terminals at 180th Street. Hence the IRT White Plains Road Line occupies the upper level of the station while the Third Avenue Line's tracks were on the lower level. As the White Plains Road Line was called a subway and the Third Avenue Line was a member of the IRT's Elevated Division, this resulted in a situation where a subway was above an el.
