Was there ever a time you could smoke on the platform or in the NYC subway trains?

My friend says cigarette smoking was allowed in the New York subway system until 1975. Does anyone remember if this is true

Not in the 60ies either. If it ever was. Check NYC TRANSIT. also know as MTA
I used to up until 1985
I remember smoking on the platform in the mid-80s waiting for the downtown train. The LIRR rid its smoking cars in 1988. I think the NYC subway platforms were around the same time.
