People were wondering what that A train was doing out there.Same statement I heard when the R-10's were first assigned to the "GG" in the fall of 1977. One rider who came aboard on a southbound run at Woodhaven Boulevard, and look around to say as to what was the "A" train doing here. On the flip side, during the R-46 truck fiscao, when I riding on an R-10 "F" train going up 6th Avenue, a rider, who was so used to having to ride those new 75-footers on the QBL (partially on the sidelines at the time), had commented as he got on board at 47th-50th that he thought that the R-10 train he was stepping into looked like it came out of mothballs. And so it goes... -William A. Padron ["Jamaica-179th St."] |
