The pistol grip GRS machine was actually a replacement for the original Hall S & S machine which was one of a kind on the NYCTS and was sort of similar to the Federal machines at Chambers, and also originally Essex and 168 St. The latter 2 were replaced by GRS pistol grip machines from other locations. 168 was replaced by the original Gold St (Myrtle) machine. I don’t know where the Essex St replacement machine came from and the Chamber St machine lasted until the new signaling controlled from the new Essex master tower was installed circa 1968. The replacement machine at Bway/Myrtle came from Qnsbro Plz west according to a Tw/M I asked there. Since the Qnsbro Plz area interlocking was placed on 11 St’s board in 1956, I suspect that was the year that the original machine at Bway/Myrt was replaced.
