haven't seen such gussets on BART cars, though when the A/B Rohrs were overhauled they could have done this on the inside. Will look harder next ride.

Inside or outside there would be evidence of rivets if the gussets were similar. The fact that bart cars are 70' long (WMATA 75'), have 2 door per side (WMATA 3) and they are further from ends may have saved them from developing the stress cracks.
