Well..the plan for the SAS had the line opening by the Midd 80's...with the whole line completed[Bronx portions] by the Late 80's, early 90's.

The R44/46 cars were would have been all in service...IF the order was on time[both contracts]...
As we all know,the 46 cars were YEARS late..just like the 44's..[ordered during the 60's,first 20 cars arrived in 1970 only to be rejected due to framing flaws]..

Maybe you can call it bad luck..or problem that were put on the back burner that finally caught up ...but the WHOLE 1968 plan..PLUS new car purchase was troubleprone.

I could go on and on..but Why?
