If the MTA is up to R-188 and R-211, it may be possible that either the R-179 number has or will either be given to another car type like work equipment or be unused entirely as was the case with the R-39 which was intended to be an el car fleet for both 3rd and Myrtle els. When I was in the schedule office in the 1970s, there was discussion of an R-55 contract for IRT cars but by the time the contract was assigned, the number had gone up the R-62. |
