Looks to be taken in the late 60s or early 70s (blue doors, and no visible graffiti). Also, they still have the route sign and destination sign, instead of just a (B) in the destination sign. |

The 1964 signage on these R32s had a "BB" but no "B" - that "B" was stenciled in around 1967.Not sure if the original rolls sign has Eastern Division BMT letters as original equipment. Still doesn't answer the question why the train keyed by the automatic signal..... |

That’s not to say theta there isn’t one now since the new signaling was installed, but at the time that photo was taken I don’t recall there being one there. |
