The R32's were more common on the M, however, R38's did show up on the M also, especially in the early or mid 80's. I don't remember ever seeing one on the J. The M had everything in the early 80's. This is probably because it ran to COney Island, and they would throw CI trains on it. I have seen every 60 foot car on the M except the R10's (although the R10's were known to occasionally show up on the J, even if ever so rarely).The M was a very colorful line back then, it had just about everything. The slants were also common on the M, pre-GOH, and even after GOH. I remember riding on a few M R40 slants in the early 90's, after GOH. They were more common on the L, however, they did show up on the M quite often too. I don't ever remember seeing a J slant, but I'm sure they did venture there, even if occasionally. |
