Referring to this diagram, it is to be noted that two othersub-stations besides Woodhaven, namely, East New Yorkand Rockaway Junction, each have to distribute alternatingcurrent to feeders supplying the outlying sub-stations nearthe terminals of the railway system. At these three principalsub-stations mentioned, therefore, the scheme of connectionswas so designed as to provide flexibility in shifting feedersabout among all the sub-stations. This is done by an extra set of bus - barssuitably subdivid-ed into sectionsand called thetransfer bus indistinction to theregular workingbus-bars of the Pork Duuton Lightning/^Arrester House.

The rotary bus in each station receives current directlythrough a feeder independently of the transfer bus in thatparticular station. This enables high-tension current to bepassed through an intermediate sub-station to one or morebeyond, independent of the operation of apparatus in theformer.
