Well in fairness, the 40's were the beginning of HUGE colored route signs on the offside that could be seen much farther down the rails than the little marker lights which, had they kept the bay windows in operation, would have allowed lineups to be handed out even sooner for trains headed that way.

What I don't get though is why they never bothered with simple train transponders to identify trains as they passed receivers on the wayside that would positively identify which train is where. And if MTA has so little faith in the intelligence of their operators, tie it to the route signs ...
