Re: R-10's on the (N) ?

Yeah, I rode an R-10 set on the rush hour "BB" way back then in 1965, going from 34th-6th to Washington Heights. Somewhere in my collection is a duplicate color slide showing a train of them (north motor unit #3023) signed up for the "BB" going northbound at 59th-8th.

After Chrystie Street opened, the R-10's were also quite common on the "AA"/"B" services going up and down Central Park West, even during the 1970's. To whit...
