I remember in the 1970's that along many of the subway lines outside of the rush hours plenty of trains were stored along the "middle tracks" of the elevated sections of the line. Again this was BEFORE the reduction in the number and types of subway cars, during the great graffiti wars, and before the memory of most young-ins.I bring this up, because in those days, I could easily believe that many RR trains could easily have been stored on the Fourth Avenue express tracks, the layup area at City Hall, and along the middle track in Astoria, and maybe a few at Coney Island. I remember plenty of trains stored along the #6 middle track both above and below the Parkchester station. Plenty of #2, #4 and #5 trains were also placed at certain sections of the middle tracks in the past in the 1970's or before. --- I of course agree that the situation has changed over the decades, and I'm not suggesting that certain practices return.
