PCC's operated into Manhattan on the Seventh ave line which ran accross the Brooklyn Bridge to Park Row. This one is on a fan trip in the 1940's and was in a one of a kind paint scheme before the Board of Transportation colors of Green and Silver were applied.

Back in Brooklyn, we have a PCC in Board of Transport Colors on McDonald Ave. The car is waiting for the track to clear as a South Brooklyn Diesel is on the street doing a little switching I believe.

 

PCC waits for SBK motor on Mcdohald

 

Since we like Bridge line photos, Here is one sort of rare . It was a fan trip in the 1940's and the car is a double ended Peter Witt waiting in the Delancey street terminal on the Manhattan side of the Williamsburg Bridge. This terminal was below ground at Subway level but no connection. The Essex Street station of the Broadway Brooklyn BMT is in the background.
