True durability there

nope, sheer luck in thier enviroment. these cars ran for 30 years before the outdoor section of the line opened in 1952 between Marvick and Suffolk downs. the line was extened to Wonderland two years later. this resulted in the cars getting a LOT of exposer to sea air, which is very corrosive. then add to that the stop for the airport. This leads to the conclusion that the envrioment of the blue line is to blame, not the design of the car and not your beloved "banana" rant.
