With the door controls inside on the BMT steels, the C/R was unable to observe the platform for passengers possibly caught in doors as the train left the station. With the C/R on steps, the C/R was able to observe the platform making it safer. Later on when door controls were placed inside the cabs the C/R was able to observe the platform. CTA had similar concerns with the articulated units which is why solid trains of artics were not usually operated. I suspect that the reason thr R-10s through 14s were not changed involved cost more than anything else. |
