Essex St on the BMT  Contributor's Pick!       
These were taken on what was most likely an ERA trip with the IRT Low V cars. The TA had a museum set that they would charter for various groups, running to different points on the system. Since the IRT cars were only 9 feet wide, they could go anywhere, and did. This is a shot of them at Essex St on the BMT M line. Thats my brother John on the platform, age 9 at the time.
