Reliable documentation exists that more than 30 trains were SCHEDULED on the Lexington Avenue express in the peak hour. There is no documentation to indicate that this level of throughput was REACHED with any regularity.

One of the first things David Gunn did when he took over NYCT(A) in 1984 was to order that service be cut to levels that could reasonably be attained, rather than show on paper that more service than was actually operating was being scheduled.
