I rode on the Larry every Saturday from 1967 to 1970 between 8th Ave. and Lorimer St. BMT standards still ruled the roost in '67 but by 1969 the R-7/9s started to appear and finally a few R-42s called it home once the last of the standards were gone. Never had any problems, although there were a few characters. There was a Puerto Rican guy once who was trying to sell a whip for $2.00, then there were these two guys, one of whom hollered out to the other, "Hey Ron, next stop - Havana!" as we pulled into 6th Ave. Maybe they wanted to fly the train to Cuba.... |
