In the mid 1930s, the 14 St Line got the newest cars, the Multis for use principally on the new 14 St/Fulton service with the excess units operating to Canarsie along with a few trains of steels to make service. In 1954, the Jamaica Line received what were then the newest cars on the system, the R-16s. What held up any more new car assignments for the Eastern was the need to equip the Southern Div with new cars since the Eastern already had the last order of new cars. |
