There were the 2500s, which had box vents that made them distinctive.

I would call the other two slant and deck roof.

In architecture, an ogee is a double curve, going from convex to concave to convex. The BMT 2000-2599 didnt have a true ogee, the Multis and R10 and R12s did. IIRC, so did Stillwell cars, like on the DL&W and the NY&B.

A clerestory roof has windows or slits for the purpose of allowing light to enter. On the Standards the raised section of the roof was only for vents.
