The article mentions that the train will not take power with the doors open and the M/M would put the controller in an operating position waiting for the power to kick in when the indication came on. At that time, only the BMT cars had the safety door interlock and IRT and IND cars did not. Also, although I’m not completely familiar with BMT operating rules in the private company days, under city and later NYCTA operation, it was a violation for the M/M template the controller in an operating position before actually receiving indication regardless of the existence of the safety interlock. |
