When I was a kid (admittedly, a very l-o-o-o-o-ng time ago), both wood (el) and steel (subway) cars ran on the Eatern Division. Prior to the advent of the NYCTA, all of the third rail in the Eastern Division was uncovered. I always thought that the third rail covers (just like the outside catwalks) were added by the TA as a safety measure.
