"The "EE" should have been assigned another lettered route, to avoid any possible confusion."

There was plenty of confusion in the beginning when the "EE" service was covered by R1-9s and half of the rollsigns identified the train as "8th Ave Local".
If I was in a position of authority back then, I would have made damn sure that the destination roll signs were correct. If I only had cardboard, duct tape & Magic Marker to get it done, like was done on the #7 when a few main line R-33s showed up there in late 1963 (before all the WF R-36 delivery was completed)& did not have "Main Street" on the side and front signs, then so be it

It was bad enough that the route was assigned some of the oldest cars in the fleet, at least they could have been signed right.
