The Chrystie Street and Sixth Avenue express services began running in 1967-68, after ten years of construction (not to mention however long it took for design work). The R-44 contract (for 75-foot cars) was awarded to St. Louis Car in 1969."That doesn't mean, though, that the thought of 75' cars happened for the first time in 1969, to be sure. |
