. Electric railway journal . ELECTRICAL DEPARTMENT OF THE METROPOLITANSTREET RAILWAY, NEW YORK—II The first portion of this article as printed in the May 21issue of the Electric Railway Journal described the steamgenerating improvements at the Ninety-sixth Street power sta-tion, high-tension betterments and substation changes. Thefollowing paragraphs complete the account of the electrical de-partment. THE NINETY-SIXTH STREET POWER STATION SWITCHBOARD RECON-STRUCTION Equally important changes are under way in the switchboardand wiring at the Ninety-sixth Street power station. Thesituation there before this work was begun was not greatly dif-ferent from that which might be expected in a station built 10years or so ago, and not subsequently brought up to date. Allof the switchboard galleries were congested to their utmostcapacity. The control wires for the oil switches, current trans-formers, potential transformers, etc., were crowded into a cablewell so that there was liability of injury to all incase of a single.
