And, of course, the Mets won it all on October 16 of that year. I still remember it as though it were yesterday.

I have a few musical associations with the subway. For instance, whenever I hear the alla turca movement of that particular Mozart piano sonata, I visualize the string of R-29/33s I saw laid up on one of the IRT lines visible from the Cross Bronx Expressway on June 4, 1967. The violin solo in Debussy's Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun brings up an image of shiny new R-32s in July of 1965. And when I hear the theme from Welcome Back, Kotter, the whole BMT Southern Division comes to mind.
