That's correct, even though I recall seeing some mixed trains of R-10s and 16s on the A line in the 1950s. The problem was that the R-10s were the last cars to have electro - pneumatic door engines whereas all subsequent car orders had all electric door operators which accounts for the slight difference in door timing. The IRT didn't have that problem since from the R-12s on, all IRT cars had all electric doors. |
