Talk:Williamsburg Bridge
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gallery and info box column on right are overlapping. Could someone who knows how please fix this? 65.96.180.86 06:56, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, I inserted a div tag with a style="clear:right" just before the gallery tag. Overlap should be gone now. --Dschwen 07:31, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Meanwhile (or before) I added template invocation {{clear}} added to try to fix it. There may be a better way but that was a fast fix. That often works as a fast fix, but it sometimes leaves icky gaps in the article on the page. Hope that helps ++Lar: t/c 07:36, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] LIRR
The article says the Long Island Railroad used the bridge. However, the Williamsburgh Branch was truncated in 1876 at Bushwick, and only runs from there to Fresh Pond where it joins the Montauk Branch. So, how did LIRR trains run on a bridge that opened in 1902? Jim.henderson 04:09, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
- These were actually Brooklyn Rapid Transit trains that used the BMT Jamaica Line to the Chestnut Street Incline and then the LIRR Atlantic Branch to Jamaica or the Rockaway Beach Branch to the Rockaways. --NE2 15:58, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
