The train I rode that Friday, September 1, 1989 that took the wrong line up headed into Chambers Street-WTC during the 4:00pm-5:00pm hour on that day. After a brief layover, I recall reboarding the train going back to Bedford Park Boulevard probably around 5:05pm.

I had documented this particular wrong lineup move that I encountered in a past early 1990 New York Division ERA Bulletin, as well as the car numbers of the two R-10 trains each day used during the PM rush hour on that week of August 28-September 1, 1989. I can tell you I heard the motorman, when he realized he took the wrong switch at Canal Street, actually crused himself out but was hardly audible to anyone else in the car.
