14 passes 84 at Springfield.
This scene near Woodland Ave. is where double track ended and where rush hour trippers to Springfield turned back to 69th St after the motorman changed poles and flipped the seats to the proper direction for forward-facing passenger travel. Changing the flipover seats was a ritual of being a motorman on PSTC because the only loop on the system was at 69th St.
