All of the Nevins St info concerning the and is incorrect. There are 2 levels at the station but the lower level was never used for any type of service. It was built and abandoned before the IRT had any numbered lines. Sounds like " Nat" has been pulling your leg. Or hitting the pipe.

Or his/her memory is as distorted as her spelling is. I remember when I was a kid (age 4~5) and I was being driven over the Williamsburg Bridge, I went home and drew a bridge with tracks varying in elevation along the bridge like a sine wave; the tracks do vary in elevation relative to the road, but not enough to make a dozen camel humps.

Also That Nevins Street (On & (5)Had 2 Levels One For Rush Hour Service And The 2 Level(Present)For All Time.The First Floor Of Nevins Street Was Used For The To Skip Nevins.Other Time & Trains Would Stop There Because If There Were A Other Or (5)Train on top Of Them.Anyway The 1 Floor Of Nevins Street Closed It Self Due To Singaling Extation.There For Was Elimnated.And The And Rusemed There regalr Times.Good Bye Nevins Street Lower Level.

 

 

About 10 years ago I rode the train out to Flatbush Avenue and looked through the Railfan Window�. Just as you're leaving the southbound Hoyt Street-Fulton Mall station, the tunnel widens a bit and you see a trackway that ramps down to another level. This leads down to the Nevins Street Lower Level. It's for a line that was never built. The station was redesigned after construction was already well underway ca. 1905-1908 and the platform was never-used. I only saw the lower level on the southbound side. Never on the Manhattan bound side.

 

When the Dual Contracts of 1913 were being drawn up, the City received many proposals from the Interborough and the B.R.T. One of the proposals, if memory serves me correctly, was to re-build the Third Ave. Elevated for heavier steel subway cars and to connect them to the I.R.T.'s Brooklyn subway via the north side tracks of the Manhattan Bridge, go a short distance on Flatbush Ave., and connect to the Nevins Street station. The proposal was fought by the B.R.T. because it would have altered their track plans for DeKalb Ave. station, not to mention the loss of two tracks on the north side of the Manhattan Bridge. There is a reference to this in Cunningham and DeHarts book, "RAPID TRANSIT IN BROOKLYN". The City sided with the B.R.T. and the I.R.T. proposal was discarded. I don't know if this had anything to do with the unused Lafayette Ave. connection tunnel, which was filled in by later subway construction. Maybe someone has some info on that Lafayette Ave connection.

Well Ill Show Nat A Piece Of My Mind.
