The IND planning was very orderly, even compulsive. One standard car for the whole system (until the R10), all platforms full-length, all flying junctions, all subway (almost) and a designation system that would make the USSR jealous:

A, B, E -- 8th Avenue Line
C, D, F -- 6th Avenue Line
G and H -- Lines that didn't enter Manhattan

A and C -- Washington Heights
B and D -- Concourse
E and F -- Queens Line

Single letter Local
Double letter express

A little messier south of West 4th and of course all single letters, Christie Street and the B and C swap made all hell break loose.
