While the interior is a mockup, every time they show a moving train exterior shot it's a different model. Why? I don't know.

Hilarious..only Lucille Ball could have done this!

The shot of a #7 train leaving Main Street has the image reversed!

Because Desilu obviously picked up on the cheap clips from that film the BoT made in 1948.....the title of which escapes me at this time

Do you mean this one? Although it's 1949, not '48.

The mockup train she is riding in seems to be a cross between a Lo-V (or Hi-V) and a Triplex so that most can identify with it.

Because of the center door with the controls between the 2 leafs I would say it's more of a standard than a triplex.

The exterior shot of the AA R-1/9 train is stock footage that was used in several movies and TV shows including a Superman episode where Superman stops a runaway train merely by breaking the 3rd rail. One of the exterior shots is of a train of Lo-Vs and the later shot is a train of H-Vs.

It seems to be a hybrid of an R-1/9 and a BMT steel. The roll signs are clearly based on the R-1/9 design, and o the panel next to the roll sign there is what appears to be a BMT style roll sign box from a steel that is blanked out. the doors to the right of the roll sign are clearly based on the BMT steels but the doors on the left are R-1/9 style with the addition of the 2 lower door panel windows which the steels had. The indentations on the actual R-1/9 doors seem to indicate that the B of T might have considered actually having those lower windows but dropped them in the final design. In Fact, now that I think about it, a photo I have of an R-1 mockup does show the side doors with the additional lower windows.

Same here. They did the same thing on Pan Am when stock subway footage was used.

But it's not Main St that the train is leaving, because the wall tiles in the clip don't have the Main St tablets on them. It looks like 5 Av.

Another memorable TV episode that I recall clearly featuring the subway was RHODA MORGENSTERN'S WEDDING (1974)!!. Rhoda literally had to board the #6 at 68th Lex, and get off (of camera at Mt. Eden/ Jerome), climb those stairs and run to her WEDDING at her Mom's house on the Grand Concourse!!!

The show was shot and produced in Hollywood. The Desilu honchos, which included Lucy and Desi, probably couldn't give a horse's patoot if the exterior shots made any sense.
