Yep ... rush hours only at 59 ... platform conductor would get your offside for open and closedown as Lion sez ... they'd ALSO reach in and turn key and take care of it on 32's and such as well. Problem with the post war cars though is that there were injuries if indication came in and you took power and the platform conductor didn't have the key out of the hole and his arm out of the window fast enough. That was something you had to be VERY careful about when up front. And of course, they'd lose a LOT of keys either leaving with the train, falling on the tracks or plain old "panic mode" that the train might leave with their arm.

Platform conductor didn't have any of those worries with arnines or artens ...
