Back in the 60s I primarilly rode the Brighton Line to Dekalb Ave or the Queens Blvd Line & the G to Fulton St. I rarely used the A line but I will say this. There is a difference between one new consist running a line and the fleet being assigned there. Back in the early 1970s, the R-44 fleet was assigned to Jamaica Shop. The very elaborate diagnostic equipment was installed there. No such installations were made at Pitkin Shop. The last new fleet based at Pitkin Shop were the R-10s to the best of my knowledge. When the allocations of the R-160s were being discussed, this fact was stated (unchallanged) to TA President Howard Roberts by my (then) boss. That's the best I can do. |
