Re: Tuscarora Almanac for September 8

In 1973 I lived in Queens and worked in Chelsea. The rush-hour E trains ran express in Manhattan (and continued on to Brooklyn), so we had to change from the lower level at 42 St and go upstairs for the CC, which stopped at 23 St.

The arnine CCs were in much worse condition than the Queens arnines.

Some years later, after some service changes, the E stopped going to Brooklyn and became an 8 Av local at all times, so the change at 42 St was no longer necessary.

The added R10 intercoms were always awkward, because the conductors still had to go between cars to open and close the doors, then come back in and go into the cab to make the announcements, then go back out to control the doors.
