One other point: by the time the 6th Ave. subway opened in 1940, the 6th Ave. el had been dismantled. It ended service in December 1938, and demolition was completed in 1939.

There is a photo in Building the Independent Subway of a C train on the first day of service on the Concourse line. I'll have to check if the upper destination sign was set for 205th St. or Bedford Park.
