Looks like they are targets for an IR-style 'gun' thermometer to hit, to keep measurements relatively consistent.Curious thing is that if that's the case, I wonder why there isn't at least one target lower in the car to guard against the layering problem. A few years back, that happened on Flushing Line R62A trains, which ended up feeling very cold at the level where most of the bodies on the train were located, because the heat was being blown in from the vents on the ceiling running along the car, instead of the traditional thing for older NYCT cars, which has been for heating panels located at foot level to do some of the heating work. Mostly is was just accumulated body heat on those trains. I believe that this has been corrected, or at least I haven't experienced for some years now. |
