bath junction

Bath Junction was originally a railroad junction and station on the New York & Sea Beach Railway, (Sea Beach Line) located near the current intersection of New Utrecht Avenue and 62nd Street in Brooklyn, New York City to describe its junction with the Brooklyn, Bath & Coney Island Railroad (West End Line). The West End Line initially described the same location as Sea Beach Junction, but the term Bath Junction was soon used by both roads. After both lines were rebuilt as rapid transit lines of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company, now part of the New York City Subway system, the name Bath Junction was dropped. The current stations at this location, with a common station house but no track connection, are known as 62nd Street on the West End Line and New Utrecht Avenue on the Sea Beach Line.
