Does anyone have photos of the former Elmhurst station located at Broadway on the PW branch? I searched the web, but found no photos of this station. I believe it closed in 1985.

Today, a thriving emigrant retail community exists at the site.
It would be interesting to see what the ridership would be if Elmhurst were open today.
Flushing - Main Street, just down the branch, experienced a 10,000% increase in riders since 1980.
