Brooklyn & Queens Transit
South of Avenue X and 86th Street, the McDonald Avenue name isn't used--it's Shell Road.  The name change to McDonald Avenue was prior to WWII, I believe.  The picture is from the 1950s, judging by the autos.  The transit cars behind the fence look like BMT C-type elevated cars.
