I didn't realize the Edison company had made these films of public transit. They are very cool.

The City wanted to close down the tracks that went over the bridge and had at least two good reasons for doing so. 1) The services were not as popular as they once were due to the presence of subways. 2) While many tracks fed into the bridge, there were only two on the bridge itself and this was a major cause of congestion for the system. This information can be verified on wikipedia. Assume that each line feeding in had two tracks.

Yeah. There weren't many automobiles in use in 1899, when this film was made.

The Brooklyn bridge used to be part of the Fulton St El. The only surviving portion of the El. is the A train from lefferts blvd in Queens to the curve before Grant Ave in brooklyn
