Back in the 70s the R-44s and 46s had the lower half of those cab door glasses painted black leaving the top half completely clear. Instead of using a heavily tinted glass to cut down on glare like Philly uses on the BSS, the NYCTA tried all sorts of ineffective methods until the current type of light diffusing glass was developed which allows light to come straight through but not from the sides. That should be something that MNRR and the LIRR should consider although I seem to recall hearing that MNRR already uses that type of glass. |
