Posted by Howard Fein on Tue Jul 24 08:41:30 2007, in response to Re: R-42's Running On The ''A'' - 7/23/2007, posted by QM18Express on Mon Jul 23 14:08:42 2007. Probably longer than that. There were some token 42s on the A in the immediate years from their 1969 delivery; the MTA made sure every B Division line got some. I only saw 42s on the otherwise R-10 dominated A a couple of times, the last being in June 1974. Slants, but not Mod 40s, ran on the A from '77 through about '84.Jamaica Yard did have a few 42s that occasionally ran as a rush-hour E to Rockaway Park. The AA. and its successor the K, did run increasingly deteriorated pre-GOH 42s all the way till the December '88 changes. For a brief time thereafter all pre-GOH'd 42s (beige interiors, dark blue inside doors) ran on the B and Q. |
