K train  Contributor's Pick!       
A shot my dad took of the K train at 57 St/6 Av station, which was the Manhattan terminus of this route. The K ran rush hours only from here to Eastern Parkway on whe Broadway BMT, via the newly built(1970) Grand St connectihn, and the Williamsburg Bridge. This was a typical train set for the line. I rode it almost daily in those days, and I dont recall ever seeing anything else on these trains. But the Broadway line was a poor stepchild anyway, with the J and K getting R7s and 9s most of the time, though the J got R 16s and some R 27s.
