I remember seeing a single letter (R) on a rollsign in 1985.

The (M) also had the old light blue color on the bullet rollsign on the R16's 'till the end (1987). I remember riding an R16 on the M in the fall of 1986. One R16 I think was one put-in trains for the Broadway yellow B route in the fall of 1986, 'cause I remember seeing one. The bullet rollsign on that R16 was black instead of yellow or orange.

Yes, when the J train ran R16s in the 80s, it had a orange/apricot rollsign bullet instead of the usual brown bullet. It was kind of confusing at first, but I knew the difference between the two routes.

I can imagine how many double letters in rollsigns existed through '85....
