The 6 was a little better than the other IRT mainlines as there were a lot of R26/28/29 cars which were in better shape than the older ones on that line. You never saw an old R12/14/15 car on the 6. The 7 had been equipped with R33WF and R36WF cars in 1963-64. The major problem with them before GOH is that they were all heavily vandalized. The introduction of the R62/R62A and the GOH of all the remaining married pair cars solved all the mixed consist issues on the IRT. |
