Were the Gibbs cars pretty much placed at the end of trains? IIRC the standard practice was to have cars with manual doors at each end of a ten-car train, since the doors at the very ends weren't used. That way each conductor had to open and close one door manually in addition to working the rmote door controls. I read that those manual doors were flat out brutal. |
