Description: Gun Hill Road station on the IRT White Plains Road Line (and on the IRT Third Avenue Line) in 1984. This two-level station was built during the Dual Contracts when both lines were lengthened northwards over their former terminals at 180th Street. Hence the IRT White Plains Road Line occupies the upper level of the station while the Third Avenue Line's tracks were on the lower level. As the White Plains Road Line was called a subway and the Third Avenue Line was a member of the IRT's Elevated Division, this resulted in a situation where a subway was above an el.
