Those rebuilt R-30/R-30A's were prematurely retired sometime around June 1993. In other words, those fleet of 162 cars were gone after roughly 31 or 32 years in regular service.

The green GOH R-10 program was designed to extended the cars' service life for another five years at most. However, you are not only to claim that the cars were good to last ten years instead, which I heard such a similar statement at an Urban Transit Club several years ago.
