Re: Andy's Almanac - December 1

Until the World’s Fair Steinways arrived, none of the trains on the IRT had front end signs either although an IRT old timer once told me that the Deck Roof Hi-Vs were designed that way with the intention of installing end signs on the cars which never happened. Prior to the introduction of the D types, none of the trains on either of the private lines had end signs nor did the trains on the H&M. In those days people learned how to deal with the way the system was and survived quite well without the use of numbers, letters or fancy colors to help them out.
