Yes they were..by 1977 March.

Anyway..the subway ran whatever was availible at the time..due to the problem with the R44/46 cars...

Not only that...but at any given time..a quater of the fleet would be down..due to various problems.

So.. the AA ran WHATEVER there was to use on 8th avenue from 207th st/Concourse yards. Even R27/30 appeared in AA service at the time.

The QB ran 27/30/32...
The N ran 32..some 38's and some 46[which were gone early that year due to the CARS being BANNED from the MANHATTAN BRIDGE]

The H was really the CC Rockaway Shuttle..and ran R10/38/40 Cars.
The CC had a bunch of R32 cars that were placed on it when it first started Brooklyn service..butthey were removed early on as the R40 cars started coming to replaced the R10 in A service..as a matter of fact...the R40 began running in CC service BEFORE A service.
