New York and Brighton Beach Railway

== History ==
The N.Y.&B.B. Railway was opened for passenger services on 5 August 1880 and operated until 19 September 1880, when the season closed. According to the 1881 report to the N.Y. State Railroad Commission it resumed service in 1881 but carried only 4,867 passengers, earning only $2,726 against $17,602 of expenses.〔Arthur John Huneke: (ARTT's Archives. )〕
In the early morning of 27 July 1881 the Brighton Beach terminal was completely destroyed by a fire of incendiary origin with a loss of $35.000 which were only partially covered by insurance. Half of the rolling stock, seven cars at an estimated value of $16.000, were also destroyed.〔 The track was sold in 1884 and renamed in 1886 to Sea Beach & Brighton Railway. It was subsequently used by the Boynton Bicycle Railroad for two years starting in the summer of 1890.
