Yeah, my last regular service ride on the R-10's was on Friday, September 1, 1989 during the PM rush hour, and I boarded one of the two eight-car consists assigned that day at 145th Street lower level. That train was supposed to go to Euclid Avenue, but it instead took the wrong lineup, and went into Chambers St-WTC on the same tracks as the "E".The R-10's, when arrived at Chambers St-WTC, were then taken out of service briefly. The train was placed back in regular service as a special put-in going to Bedford Park Boulevard, which I was able ride back to 145th Street lower level. Meanwhile, I spotted the other R-10 train going southbound at Canal Street, and did correctly took the track lineup in crossing over the switch there going to Brooklyn. -William A.
