The R29 was a New York City Subway car built in 1962 by the St. Louis Car Company for the IRT division (also known as the A Division). They have very similar appearances to the R26 and 28 cars with the exceptions that they were built by a different company and permanently paired with link bars, not couplers. Four cars (8686, 8687, 8804 and 8805) were tested with G70 trucks. Use of these trucks was discontinued in 1970. After being rebuilt by Morrison Knudsen in Hornell, New York as "Redbirds" in 1985-87, they were split into two groups with different propulsion equipment. The Westinghouse cars ran on the 6 train alongside the R36 Main Line and some Westinghouse R36 World's Fair cars while the General Electric cars ran the 2 and 5 trains with the R26 and R28 cars.
