I'm hoping someone on here will have a definitive answer to this:

Was the Putnam Division station that was located just south of the junction of the main line and the Getty Square branch called "Van Cortlandt" or "Van Cortlandt Park"? If anyone has a photo that shows the station sign, that would be even better - I'm trying to create a 1/4-size replica of the sign for the wall in my living room, and I'd like to make it as accurate as I can.

Thanks,

Joshua
