Thanks a lot, I wasn't sure about that but I guess since the Broad St subway was built after the BMT, it looks like Philly's planners took that into consideration. The MTA tried again to operate a stretch car on the NYCTS in the form of the R-44s 46, and 68s and that required shaving back portions of the bench walls in many of the tunnels and of course locking bulkhead doors between cars. It looks like the MTA has given up on 75 ft cars hopefully for good. |
