The AA,B,D shared cars out of several pools.The B and AA shared rolling stock out of Coney Island ,along with the D out of Stillwell. The D had its own yard and maintenance shops at 205st. New cars were purchased for the BMT lines from 1955 to 1965. The IND received new cars 1967 ( R38) The TA wanted to keep the ol timers off the Manhattan Bridge...so most of the R units were replaced with Brightliners...while the AA split cars with the B line.
