Growin up under the Flushing line, late 50's-early 60's, I'd be walkin to school on Roosevelt Ave & always looked up to see whats runnin. Back then, they'd run 9 car trains M/F & 6 car trains on the weekends.Once & a while on a Monday morn, I'd see 6 R12's & 3 R 14's together to makeup a 9 car weekly consist. They went to longer lengths just before the '64 World's Fair. Lo-Vs & 39 World's fair cars were long gone by then. |
