Ok, you meant the WABCO J1A couplers. I had never heard them
called "Janney" and was wondering if you knew of an attribution
for that nickname.

As Randy pointed out, the IRT cars never went to the H couplers.
However, the famous Lo-V museum train was thus converted so it could
couple in an emergency to other H head (H2A or H2C) equipment.
