Posted by Chris R16/R2730 on Sun Aug 30 11:49:24 2009, in response to Re: 1985 subway map, posted by bigrene22 on Sun Aug 30 11:15:18 2009. Double letters survived for as long as trains with old signage remained in service. Since the R16's retained their old signs to the end, you could see "JJ" and "LL" trains well into 1987. Many R44 and R46 cars never got single lettered signs until they went for GOH in 1989. The 5/6/86 date refers to the moment where double letters were ceased being used administratively. Most trains in service when this map was released did not have the proper signage. Double letters dominated through 1985. |
