I operated them plenty on the D when I was a rookie. One pick, I operated the 7:57 PM from Stillwell, a put-in since it was the first D out of there after Brighton Beach service stopped running for the evening. The last M left Stillwell at 7:49 PM at that time. The equipment was supposed to be an early layup from Brighton Beach, held in Stillwell Yard till needed for that interval. Many times there was no D consist available for various reasons so an 8 car M train lay-up was substituted. Do you know how many times I went uptown with M signs on all cars except the c/r cars? I barely had enough time to change the head signs let alone the side signs in my car. Once it got uptown, they made sure it came back to get laid up and go back to M/QB service for the next morning. |
