I love the body style of these cars.
This is the Ideal Form subway car shells should have utilized.
The body side walls, windows and doors placement could have been modified to what we have today..

Reminds me of TTC "H and T" rolling stock models..
As I understand it,the cars that came closest to that style cannot operate through some tunnels because of some engineers idea of what the ideal subway car is supposed to look like(narrower at the top above the beltline...nowing out..then sliming to the chassis.
No straight sides...only tapered cars.
Whatever.
