Maximum length trains on the BMT pre Chrystie was 8 cars and the normal consist on the 14 St Line was 6 cars of either steels or R types. When the Multis were the principal equipment on the line, the normal train length was 2 Multi units. There were 2 rush hour intervals which were listed on the timetables as 8 car steels but normally ran as 3 unit Multi consists. 2 Multi units were slightly sorted than 6 car trains of steels and a 3 unit Multi train was the same length as 8 steels. When the R-11s ran as a solid train they ran as a 6 car consist the way the R-16s or R-10s would run. |
