| The D train during the mid 1970s usually had some of the newest cars assigned to it, mostly R42s, and by 1977, R 46s. R 27s were really uncommon, though, as this photo at 34th St and 6th Av shows, rush hours can make for some strange assignments. A train of R 27s, usually found on the BMTs J, M, and RR trains, pulls away as it picks up speed for a fast run to W 4th St. |
