There was an incident in which a EE developed door trouble at Lex/60 St and was taken O/S. Somewhere in the tube S/O the 11 St Cut it developed an unrelated problem and blocked service for quite a while. As a result, 2 things occurred. Firs it that whenever an o/S train had to go through a river tube, no other trains were to be allowed behind it until it completely cleared the tube. The second was that all R-1/9s were banned from the EE service which was a typical NYCTA knee jerk reaction since the BO train was a SMEE. As for the museum R-1/9, when it ran on the QB it was equipped with the old BMT numbered route signs so it read “1/Brighton Local.” on the rare occasions I sent it down the Sea Beach it read “4/Sea Beach Express." |
