"Did they have windshield wipers originally?"

From what I've heard, they came from the factory w/o windshield wipers since the original plan was for all IND lines to be underground thus unnecessary. The short hop over the Gowanus Canal wasn't enough to warrant wipers, so thought the suits. Wipers weren't installed en masse on the R1-9fleet until the IND takeover of the elevated Culver Line.
