If any line could handle a 60ft IRT car,it definitely would have been the Flushing Line.Most of the original could too,but the R62 concept called for a 65 foot car. Not wanting to repeat the Long car problems they dealt with evaluating the R44 etc, the 62s came in as standard. There really aren't too many bad order areas that stop them from ordering longer cars for the A division.. It's gap fillers at 14th St that are the main concern. |
