South Eighth Street (LIRR station)

South Eighth Street, also known as South Seventh Street on early timetables,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=South Seventh Street Timetable )〕 was a train station along the Bushwick Branch of the Long Island Rail Road. South Eighth Street was built in September 1868 and opened on November 4, 1868. As the city of Brooklyn wouldn't allow steam trains west of Bushwick, horses pulled the cars individually through the streets to South Eighth Street.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=The South Side Rail Road Company of Long Island )〕 In July 1869 the station must have been adequate for two or three trains, for, in a letter of complaint, we read: "...the intersection of South Eighth Street and Kent Avenue is impassable...by reason of the frogs and switches and the crossing rails of the South Side RR. The company has abolished the sidewalk and occupy the space with trucks and wagons unloading directly into their depot." In April 1872, the depot was enlarged by an extension of the roadbed on heavy framework resting on piles to the bulkhead line of the river, nearly 100 feet in length, and giving standing for several additional cars. In a description of the waterfront in 1872 it is read: "The South Side Railroad depot is deserving of mention; it was originally a depot building two stories high, in which are sitting rooms, freight and ticket offices on the first floor for the accommodation of passengers, while on that above are the several offices of the corporation. Early in summer a covered depot to shelter the cars was erected and has just been completed. This rests upon piles and partly extends over the ferry piers."〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Roster of Equipment )
South Eighth Street was abandoned on February 29, 1876, with the last train leaving on February 26. All rails were removed during May 1876. Part of the old depot buildings were still standing in 1922.〔
