"Fulton Street 'L' - Track Plans", In New York Division Bulletin, Electric Railroader' Association, Vol. 38, No. 1, January, 1995, pp.2-4.For those of you that would like to do research and see the early track plans of the Fulton Street Line in Brooklyn in 1912, please see below. Notice the Fulton Ferry stub which was very close to the Ferry Line to Manhattan. The Sands Street station was multilevel and very interesting. Take a look at "Manhattan Junction" station in 1912. Some of you are interested in the "Franklin Shuttle" and you can see the prior connection of the "Brighton Line" to the Fulton Street El at the "Franklin Avenue Station". Parts of the original line at this intersection lasted until the last rebuilding of the line (Franklin Avenue Shuttle) several years ago. The structure at Sands Street was complicated and the map does not show the ramp in which streetcars joined the structure for accessing the Brooklyn Bridge.
