Back then the "GG" was running a mixture of R-4, R-6 and R-7 cars. These essentially looked the same, except for minor differences (i.e.the Pullman R-6 had different [GE] fans and slightly longer stems with a more flared socket on the lites by the storm doors).
R16s and a few R40Ms came on in 1970. The next major shifts were to R32s then R10s then back to R32s then to the current six-car R46 fleet.
